The Temptationsโ dance steps were taught and rehearsed.
In 1965, Motown hired choreographer Cholly Atkins into its Artist Development department, and he began working with the Temptations, the Supremes, the Four Tops and others. Atkins had danced professionally since his teens, and pioneered what became known as โvocal choreography,โ steps built around the singing.
Otis Williams said that Atkinsโs steps were not easy, with a lot of little hitch steps and subtle movements. He said that Atkins would pick up something on the record that you would have to strain to hear, and build a step around it. Once a group got a Cholly Atkins routine down, they stood apart from the other acts.
The idea started inside the group. Paul Williams pushed early on for the Temptations to be a group of action and excitement, and Berry Gordy brought in Atkins to teach them. A Boston College paper says that Atkins and Paul Williams worked out the โTemptation Walkโ together.
Atkins won a Tony for choreography in 1989, and passed on April 19, 2003, at 89.
Smooth on stage, and a lot of work behind it.

Morning! Hereโs todayโs Rise and Grind:
Rasean Dinkins wasnโt a starter to begin this season, but that didnโt prevent him from making plays. He took over at strong safety in Week 5 and has settled in as a trusted playmaker in the Georgia secondary
