So when we do cha cha cha, let's do it again, cha cha cha, one more time, cha cha cha, so, the basic step will be one step to the side, we're going to rock, come back and cha cha cha. I'm going to rock back, one, two, cha cha cha. Step, step, cha cha cha. Back, front, cha cha cha. Front, back, side together side. So I'm going to repeat just the cha cha. Cha cha cha, cha cha cha. Cha cha cha, one two three, three full step, three full step. Let's combine the whole thing, so it's back, forward, cha cha cha. Forward, back, cha cha cha.
