Best Answer

Staccato generally means to shorten an already designated note, and allow extra silence between said notes in music. So, in a dance move, it may mean to do the step and abruply end it, where it may have been naturally longer. The rhythm doesn't change, only the length of time in the step. Thus, when you say Cha Cha Cha, you say each Cha with a very distinct shortness to the word.
