I'm no expert, but of the three original Supremes i always considered Mary to be the best dancer. It was always Florence who at times looked awkward and uncomfortable with the choreography. This was most noticeable on her final Sullivan appearance during the modern millie routine. Mary by contrast always appeared slick and accomplished, especially when performing more complicated routines.
