Beginners, lay the right foundations and take the time to practice with slow and mid pace tracks. Gradually increase the pace to get your turn patterns up to speed. Get to grips with that body roll or shoulder isolation you have been working on. Practicing your styling to cha cha can help, the slower speed will give you more time to isolate and coordinate your body movements.
