Fatima Robinson has been a choreographer for over 30 years – and she’s seen a lot of changes in how we dance.

Choreographer Fatima Robinson has had an incredibly prolific career: she gave us the iconic King Tut-style moves from Michael Jackson’s ‘Remember the Time’ music video, she taught us how to ‘Rock the Boat’ with Aaliyah, and she was head choreographer on Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour. And all through that time, she’s moved through all kinds of changes in how we dance – including Tik Tok. Host Brittany Luse chats with Robinson about how she pulls rhythm out of stars – and what causes the dance moves of the day to change.
