There must be regional variations according to which moves tend to be taught most often and hence many of these end up becoming part of a leader's collection of stock moves. Then as others see them being danced they learn them and/or practice them, and so on. There could be something in the water in Chester or wherever that makes people love to dance a particular move, but I doubt it. Personally I'm all for reviving old and rarely taught MJ moves.
