When young people in the United States gather for fun,there is a good chance that they will soon be dancing. If there are nomusicians, they will play records. If there are no records, some one is certainto have a radio. One way or another there will be dancing.

The ways that boys and girls dance will often changeevery year or two. You may hear them say that the very latest steps are “in,’while last year’s step are ‘out.’ Each boy and girl takes pride in learningnewest things. They feel that this is important to remaining popular with theirfriends.

Years ago the dances of young people were not verydifferent from those of their parents, but high school and college students oftoday have created their own music and have invented their own dances, thanksto people like Chubby Checker, the Beatles, and Elvis Presley. These musicians helpedto make popular an exciting new kind of music that people began to dance to ina different way.

In the late 1950s Chubby Checker started a dance thathe called the “twist.” The twist, like so many new dances, was lively, andpeople who performed it used a lot of energy. The word chubby means “a littlebit fat,” which is why this singer and dancer called himself Chubby.

After demonstrating his new dance hundreds of times,however, Chubby was no longer chubby. This is one of the advantages. Even ifolder people do not like the new dances, they must agree that people get muchmore exercise from modern dances than they ever got from a waltz.
