I have been watching your videos to unlearn and relearn what I knew about cha cha. I took a cha cha workshop years ago at a salsa school that dances on 1. The school also taught cha cha on 1 and after watching your videos and others, I was thinking that the school had taught wrongly. But I just analysed again and realized that the timings are rather similar. Your timings of 6 7 8n1 is equivalent to 1 2 cha-cha-cha, and 2 3 4n5 is equivalent to 5 6 cha-cha-cha. What is your views about on this matter and should I really switch to using Cha Cha on 6 and on 2?
There are many different ways to count cha cha. 123 4&5 67 8&1 123 cha cha cha 23 cha cha cha 123 4&1 23 4&1 Rock steps go on 23 and 67 You will find some line dances and couples line dance chas that rock forward on 1 but more people than not rock on 23 and 67.

"Agree on the footwork" is the best agreement when dancing with an unfamiliar partner on the dance floor. The best takeaway from this video.
