Music has rhythm, the body feels it - the body wants to move. Dance

Mozart, is based on the dances of the period. What the heck is the
problem about moving? It's natural.

Question. How natural, as opposed to learned, is the type of movement
in the Sabine Meyer video?
I ask this as I have worked with blind musicians and observed blind
musicians such as Roland Kirk, Ray Charles, etc. and their movements
are of a totally different kind. Could this be because their
movements are 'natural' as opposed to affectations?
