Cha-cha-cha is the name of a Latin Americandance of Cuban origin. It is danced to the music of the same name introduced by Cuban composer and violinist Enrique Jorrín in 1953. This rhythm was developed from the danzón by a syncopation of the fourth beat. The name isonomatopoeic, derived from the rhythm of the güiro (scraper) and the shuffling of the dancers' feet.
