The twist is a dance that originated from Chubby Checker's 1959 song, “The Twist.” The dance can also be used in other settings and with other styles of music. The dance itself is fairly simple, and most beginners can pick it up in no time.
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Put equal weight on both feet. Keep your knees flexible and your torso squared evenly with your hips.
There is not a set position your feet must be in to do the twist, but if your legs are too close together, the movements might seem too stiff. Similarly, if your legs are too far apart, you might be able to balance yourself better but ultimately have difficulty keeping the beat.
Use the shoulder-width rule as a guideline but experiment with different stances until you find one that feels natural and comfortable.
Gently budge one foot ahead of the other. The front foot should not be a full length ahead of the back foot, and there should be some overlap between them.
Note that this is technically optional, even though it is fairly standard. You can still do the twist while keeping both feet in the same place.
As you twist, you will usually notice that you will favor one side more than the other. If you moved one foot forward at the start of the dance, odds are, that will be the side you twist to more dramatically. To switch directions, simply slide your original forward foot back and bring your original back foot forward. Your body will naturally begin swinging more dramatically to the new side.
Gradually bend your knees more as you twist which will lower your body further. Hold this position for a few beats, then rise back up by raising your knees to the starting position. Both the dropping and rising part of the move should be slow and steady.
Move one leg at a time.
With the normal twist, both feet move in synchronized harmony. Instead, hold one foot still while twisting the heel of your other foot as your hips shift from side to side.
