What is the name of the dance music?

Question:Hello! While I was in America, in PE classes I saw students dance to a piece of music, maybe spanish dance music. I can't remember the exact name, but I think the pronunciation of the name is like macalina, something like that. Could you please help me find the name of the music? Thanks a lot!

Maybe "macarena"?
Or "malaghena"?
Try those two, see if they're what you're talking about....
Although I could be way off!
Hope it helps.

There's alegria from cirque du soleil? I'm not sure how you pronounce what you 'macalina' but it sounds similar if I'm guessing right.
