Mambo Cousin is a term used to refer to two Latin American dance styles, TANGO and Cha Cha. TANGO is a partner dance that originated in the late 19th century in the working-class port neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is characterized by its passionate embrace and dramatic pauses. Cha Cha is a Cuban dance style that was developed in the 1950s as a variation of the Mambo. It is known for its syncopated rhythms and flirtatious movements. Both dances are popular around the world and have been featured in many films and television shows.
