mambo

[Spanish]

A style of music of Cuban origin that started in the mid 1930s and by the mid 1940s included a unique dance style. By the 1950s, the cha-cha-cha had emerged as an offshoot of the basic Mambo dance. Although Mambo dancing is still performed today, it is quite different from the original dance of the 1940s and 1950s.
