The twist is a super fun dance that really took off in the early 1960s. It became a massive dance craze, especially thanks to Chubby Checker’s hit song “The Twist.” Essentially, the dance is all about swiveling your hips and twisting your body, kind of like you’re putting out a cigarette with your foot while drying your back with a towel—if you can imagine that! It was one of those dances that didn’t require a partner and gave everyone the freedom to just move and have fun. #TWIST #dance #fun #h

We've been twisting for 65 years! This month in 1960, Chubby Checker released his debut album, "Twist With Chubby Checker.” The undisputed king of 1960s rock & roll dance crazes, Chubby Checker’s album inspired millions to shake it all night long to hits like “The Twist,” “The Hucklebuck,” and “The Pony.” Tune in to Disney on November 8, to see Chubby Checker get inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. | Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
