We can see how dancing has changed over the years.
But nothing beats the classic.
Though there are many dance steps that have been emerging, the dances that became popular in the past will never be forgotten.
And who could ever forget the Hokey Pokey which was recorded in 1953?
How about Macarena which made rounds in 1996? All of them are amazing and have given our grandparents or parents some good times back then.
Of course, one of the most famous was The Twist which became widely popular back in 1960!
Even after many years, these old dance crazes still entertain us.
There is a video on YouTube where some seniors are doing The Twist gracefully in a line dance. Most of the dancers in the clip are women but it is noticeable that there is also a man who was evidently enjoying the dance performance.
The entire performance was choreographed by Karen Tripp. They also used the song Let’s Twist Again by Chubby Checker which is perfect for their dance moves.
It is a flawless presentation.
They were not doing complicated steps but the whole thing is so entertaining. It’s also amazing how they kept it impeccable.
In a line dance, the dancers must execute all the steps at the same time – which they impressively did. None of them made even a single mistake.
You can tell that they practiced the whole thing rigorously.
Based on the description of the video, their performance is an “Absolute Beginner Line Dance”. They had to do 32 counts and 4 walls which means doing different steps while facing the front, back, left, and right direction.
They’re killing every step!
It’s no wonder why their video has garnered more than 1 million views, even though it was uploaded 5 years ago! Based on the comment section, many people were impressed by their dance performance.
A commenter even defended them from unwanted comments.
“Fantastic! It may look easy, but for anyone dissing this, it is not easy, and both the coordination with the other dancers, as well as the constant movement is not only therapeutic but enlivening and FUN!”
There was also a teenager who commented,
“I’m 17 and this grandma is faster than me“.
Aside from twisting, they also do a lot of clapping, sliding left and right, and switching from one wall to another smoothly.
If you will compare their dance moves to what we see from kids nowadays, there are really lots of differences. Nevertheless, all of them are undoubtedly amazing. We just need to appreciate them equally.
It’s also nice that we still get to see these oldie but goldie dances on social media.
Who knows? The Twist might get famous again and it might be next dance craze we get to see online!
Dances come and go but all of them have surely made us groove and have given plenty of fun moments to reminisce about!
