Michael Jackson learned everything he knows dancing from the Nicholas Brothers. There is even footage of Michael Jackson dancing together with The Nicholas Brothers. Michael was a outstanding tap dancer.

At the 4:31 mark when he tap dances on the side of his feet 😮. I don't people realize how strong his ankles and legs have to be in order to do that. Fayard's feet were super smooth and fast similar to a great boxer punching a speed back

Mike was influenced by them yes. He was also influenced by James Brown and Jackie Wilson and he loved Fred Astaire. Michael loves old musicals.
