Enjoy the dance! Thank you for all the positive feedback! Also note at Country House we like to do this dance to “19 You and Me” by: Dan and Shay. The movement is a little slower which you may either enjoy as much or find better for learning the steps. Hope you enjoy the 16 Cha Cha dance, please share your comments or videos.
