YouTube, maryloo68Before TikTok dance trends, there was the twist.
Long Time Ago
PexelsSixty years ago, the twist first emerged on the dance scene, and up until today, it’s still just as fun as ever.
Old Way Of Rebellion
PexelsIn the early 1960s, the twist was considered highly provocative with a lot of shaking of the hips and swinging arms involved, until it slowly became tamer as years went by.
A Talented Dance Group
YouTube, maryloo68A group of eleven people mainly composed of elders showcased an epic line dance performance.
Their Choreographer
PexelsThe choreographer of the 10 lovely women and one gentleman was Karen Tripp.
Their Song
PexelsFor their grand performance, Karen chose “Let’s Twist Again” by Chubby Checker which is one of the most popular songs for doing the twist.
“Absolute Beginner Line Dance”
PexelsTheir dance steps that included 32 counts and 4 walls were not too fast, but not too slow either. They’re just speedy enough to give the dancers a slight challenge.
They Know What They’re Doing
YouTube, maryloo68The dancers in the video would slide to the left and right, clap, and then turn in another direction. We’re quite sure that there are not a lot of people who know how to do dances like these anymore.
A Lot Of Twisting
YouTube, maryloo68Of course, there was a lot of twisting involved in their routine, but almost everyone thinks that what the dancers did with their line dance was neat and we definitely agree.
