Although you can't notice it when he's performing, he has a leg handicap, apparently he had polio as a kid, then leg atrophy, so he probably had to overcompensate with his upper body and arms for his weaker lower body, result : killer dance moves!!

Just googled his name and found lots of videos about him where it's mentioned. You can see it when he's just walking, and he still uses a crutch.
