    I went to college in the mid 70s. My mom and I were at a disco one night and she ran into a highschool classmate. They started dancing in 'oldie ' style and all the college kids cleared the floor and let these two young 40 somethings show off their dancing! It was so much fun to see how incredible my mom could dance

    @@firstenforemost I agree this is true but I'm sure the dancing played a part. Dance halls (at least that's what they were called in Ireland), and showbands, were extremely popular, people would at least be dancing a few hours a week, which is more than what most people can say nowadays. The dancing in clubs today doesnt even equate to the energy of the dances back then. Not to mention they walked and cycled most places including to the dances.

    I'm born in 1951 and vividly remember these dances from middle school and high school dances, parties and TV shows. These girls are fun to watch and they are energetic dancers, but so many of the interpretations of the individual dances are not quite "historically" accurate and many are outright incorrectly danced. I advise them to look at KZread clips of 1960s teen TV dance shows (American Bandstand, Shindig, Hullabaloo, etc.) if they want to get it right. But still, it was entertaining and it's nice that they wanted to visit such a musical era.

    You know there's a big difference in doing a dance move, and feeling the moves you do, I use to get so frustrated after so long watching the Dick Clark Show growing up in my hometown, because there was no feeling or rythm and everyone was offbeat, Now some 60' years later, after generations of intergeneration, and getting into the beat and tempo, everyone seems to be enjoying the music and the dance moves much more with feeling, The said all some culture's ever could do was dance, act and sing, Well now the whole world is beginning to understand why and how it stimulates the body from head to toe; So enjoy yourself as it was created to be.

    They mention that they "transposed" some of the old dances to be more contemporary and work with their body types. But original versions were a lot of fun. To the younger viewers, to see how we did The Pony or The Jerk back in the day - maybe check out some old American Bandstand videos to see the difference between their adaptations and the original. The Pony was more of a prance with knees lifted high and the arms and hands in front of you like you were holding the reins (except your fingers were pointed downward), and you'd sychronize the movement of your arms with the up and down motion of your legs. And for The Jerk, your arms are bent at the elbow and held one over the other across the chest -- and you'd alternate them while "jerking" from your abs ... if that makes any sense. Both of those dances were quite a workout! For the old-school version of The Madison, check out the movie, "Hairspray." Also, if I remember right, both the Madison and the Watusi (and a lot of other dances) were usually done with a bunch of people on the dance floor in lines. That was a fun way to dance, in a group.

We played volleyball and basketball and the teacher didn't care if you broke your fingernails. We were happy when we got to play baseball because we could sit on the bench half the time. Most of my classes were on the second or third floor and in three different buildings so there was a lot of stair climbing and lots of space between buildings. We did a lot of walking and running between classes.

Or maybe it was the advertisers on American Bandstand who are nervous. They wanted middle-class white hooks to buy those Broyhill dining sets.
