Devante Latorre's Michael Jackson Tribute Went Viral. Now, London.

Choreography by Devante Latorre

Some tributes fade into the background of a crowded internet. Devante Latorre's choreography to Michael Jackson's "You Rock My World" did the opposite — it went viral, and it's stayed exactly that resonant ever since. Recreating a piece of Jackson's legacy isn't a small undertaking; it demands the same precision, character, and sheer command of a room that made the original untouchable in the first place, and Latorre brought all of it into The Manor LDN's Finsbury Park studio.

That's the kind of choreography that doesn't just get watched, it gets studied — the phrasing, the isolations, the way the energy builds without ever tipping into imitation for its own sake. For dancers in the room, learning it directly from Latorre meant getting the details a viral clip can only hint at: the intention behind each hit, the timing that separates a tribute from a genuine artistic statement. It's exactly the kind of session that reminds London dancers why training with someone who's actually built a career on this level of detail is worth more than any tutorial online.

Watching a piece of music history get reinterpreted with that much care, inside a room built to hold it properly, was the whole point — and it's exactly the kind of class The Manor LDN keeps making space for.
