as well as googling YouTube-Beatles-Twist & Shout (live in 65)

------The hustle and bump were 1970s dances; in the bump, the dancers bumped hips together.

------Although Little Eva's "The Loco-Motion" was a 1962 number one hit, it actually never was a dance itself other than the moves associated with the song.

TheTwist. Chubby Checker made this dance famous. Exhibitions and variations of the twist were all over the world in the 60s.
The other dances that you mentioned were similar to line dancing, and very much like 'Simon said' stuff. Lambada came much later, and had the Latin sexual component , which the other dances didn't have.
