Cha Cha Cha is a very popular off-shoot of the Latin dance 'Mambo'.
The slow Mambo tempo has a distinct sound in the music that people began dancing to originally calling the step the "Triple" Mambo and eventually it evolved into a separate dance which is today known as the Cha Cha Cha.
The dance consists of three quick steps (triple step or Cha Cha Cha) followed by two slower steps on the one beat and two beat. Cha Cha Cha is in 4/4 time with the rhythm being counted as 2 3 4 & 1, the '4 & 1' are recognized as being the familiar Cha Cha Cha triple.
