Maria Frye 'claims' to have choreographed this dance in 1995... but this dance was being done in the mid 1970's as a party dance to The Locomotion (Little Eva), in the late 1980's to same song by Kylie Minogue and in 1994 to 'Saturday Night' by Whigfield (an adapted version to Whigfield appeared later in video's)

I can't vote for anyone who steals a dance just because not many people in the 90's and on were doing this dance without knowing that we had been doing it since the late 70's. Shame on you.
