The first video is about her, the other two illustrate her style. Are you down for an hour or so of this?

In 2011, researchers from Northumbria University published an article in the journal Biology Letters about male dance moves. They used motion-capture technology to "precisely break down and analyse specific motion patterns in male dancing that seem to influence women's perceptions of dance quality."Here's the key part of their finding (for those men seeking to improve their dance moves):
