The Mamma Maria is most commonly danced to “Mamma Maria” by Ricchi E Poveri. It's also danced to “9 to 5” by Dolly.
32 counts across 4 walls. The same sequence repeats, rotating 90° to face a new wall each time until you're back to where you started.
Yes, the Mamma Maria is rated abs beginner. It's a good early dance to learn. Get the counts down at a slow tempo and the rest follows.
No. Like every line dance, the Mamma Maria is danced solo in rows. Everyone does the same steps facing the same way, so you can join in without a partner.
Watch the demo video on this page a few times through, then drill one 8-count at a time at a slow tempo. Once each section feels automatic, chain two together, then run the whole dance to music.
A line dance is a choreographed sequence danced solo in rows. Everyone does the same steps facing the same way, no partner needed. The Mamma Maria repeats the same 32-count sequence, turning to face a new wall each time through. Once the counts click, you can join in the moment the song comes on.
