Thriller Dance Tutorial

This dancer and singer extraordinaire leads an instructional dance video to Michael Jackson's international hit: Thriller.
Here's the how-to for anyone who's wondered how exactly Jennifer Garner got those cool moves in 13 Going on 30.
Rated PG (brief pelvic thrusting)
Ages 8 & up
Do not attempt if you are pregnant, or think you may become pregnant. Or if you have known someone within the past six months who has been pregnant. Thriller is not for everyone. Ask you doctor if Thriller is right for you, and start living again! (Or, dying a zombie death, as it were)
Yes, this is how ND students study for midterms.

This is the most entertaining tutorial on KZbin. Thank you, so fun.

[@renearona]

that was so cute because ,thats the way i teach our dance class ,it brings out the interst in the class, talking it out just for practice only is the best i always say. that was the bestest

[@cobourguy]

After all these years, this is still amazing!

[@SlightlySingedAngel]

That was hilarious. I don't know how much I actually learned, but I was very entertained and have better feelings about having to learn this dance than I did five minutes ago. Also, main dancer, you remind me of somebody I knew one time who I adored, which made it that much better. Good job, everybody.

[@LWBobbyB]

This video is so helpful, I'm a DJ for weddings and school dances and stuff and now I can't wait to get out there and try to teach everyone this stuff!!

These girls inspired us for a Hen night Thriller dance routine! Video response attached. The Hen is a big Michael Jackson fan and we decided to surprise her with the routine. After the initial performance we then gave her a little lesson before we hit the bars and streets of Cardiff (capital city of Wales, UK)!! We were only able to perform it as a group on the night - due to distance etc. So a fair attempt by all!! The language spoken in the video is Welsh! Thank you girls!! :o)

[@poodle6298]
