VIDEO - The Cha Cha Slide

Another dance lesson for you and all you have to do is listen to the directions in the song!

Here is how to do:

THE CHA CHA SLIDE

(Main steps: 1-4)

1) “Turn It Out” or “Let’s Go To Work” are the key phrases indicating the start of the
electric slide. Turn to the rt. then 3 steps to the rt. and clap. Then 3 steps to the left and clap. Then 3 steps back and clap.

2) “Hop”-You hop forward with your feet spread apart the # of times dictated in the song. (Anywhere from 1 to 6 times)

3) “Stomp”-A hard step forward, first with your right foot then your left. This maybe done more than once also.

4) “Cha-Cha”-4 Steps. (1) forward with the rt. foot (2) forward with the lf. foot (3) back with the rt. foot (4) back with the lf. foot. You will cha-cha anywhere from 1 to 4 times, depending on the song.

5) “Criss-Cross”-Cross your legs and back again-2 beats. (1) X (2) l l.

6) “Reverse”-Hop and do a 180 degree turn.

7) “Slide”-One step to left or right depending on the song. (Advanced dancers drag your opposite foot-it looks cool)

8) “Charlie Brown”-Not Sure? I do the monkey (move my arms up & down…left-right- left-right etc.) 8 beats.

9) There are a few other self-explanatory steps-clapping, etc.

That’s it. It sounds confusing but once you get the song and do it a few times you’ll see how easy it is.
