janetz Posted September 20, 2012 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Have any of you joined in the flash mob dance? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goes Cruising Posted September 20, 2012 #2 Share Posted September 20, 2012 My daughter and I have done this a few times. Twice on a Freedom B2B, and last Spring on our Jewell TA. Honestly, it's probably more fun for the participants than anybody else. I can't say the crowd was very engaged or appreciative. I'm not sure they even "got it". That didn't matter. We had a few dance classes to learn it, which were very fun. It's the same routine no matter what ship, so you can get better at it after a couple of cruises :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traveling Library Posted September 21, 2012 #8 Share Posted September 21, 2012 On the Independence of the Seas on July 5th we did Thriller just before the Quest. Tons of fun. I got on the elevator to go back to the cabin and a woman looked at me and said "I didn't know we had zombies on the cruise." My reply "We are everywhere Madam!"

janetz Posted September 21, 2012 Author #9 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Is it just one class to learn all the steps? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveling Library Posted September 21, 2012 #10 Share Posted September 21, 2012 To learn Thriller we had 3 "official" 1-hour classes and then groups of us got together 2 additional times to practice. Thriller has a lot of steps but I think we did a pretty good job remembering them. Ask me today and I can probably do only 1/4 of the dance...but that's 1/4 more than I knew before the cruise.

That is alot of practice but yes, the dance has many moves. I love to dance. Hope someone did a video forr you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlelamb814 Posted September 22, 2012 #12 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Both videos are awesome! I think that is a great think to participate in. I will have to look for it on future cruises! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhansaMi Posted September 22, 2012 #13 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I'm SO going to do this if they have it on the Enchantment of the Seas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveling Library Posted September 22, 2012 #14 Share Posted September 22, 2012 You'll see Dance Class or Dance Club in the daily program. On a Celebrity ship it was Dance Club and our class performed at the end of the crew show. I was a "soloist" with our teacher Andres on "Kung Fu Fighting". Several hours later I'm on the elevator and a woman says to her companion, in German, that's one of the dancers. Did I feel honored! I responded in very bad German that she was correct.

liljay6915 Posted September 22, 2012 #15 Share Posted September 22, 2012 oh how fun, I hope DH will watch DS for a while so I can have some mommy time and have fun dancing!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goes Cruising Posted September 22, 2012 #16 Share Posted September 22, 2012 It's not a flash mob if it's an organized cruise activity announced by the staff. Was the performance time listed in the cruise calendar as well? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD The classes are announced, but not the performance date/time. You have to participate in the classes to get that info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted September 22, 2012 #17 Share Posted September 22, 2012 I watched the video and was so prepared to do the dance class on the Freedom this past July. It was not in the cruise compass, and never saw it on board. Still do not know if they had it on our sailing. But, this upcoming July.......on Allure....I will be there camera in hand.

I wish when I was on Voyager they did it like that. We took the MJ dance class just for fun and I knew some Thriller would be in there so went to learn. He also did 2 other dances too. After Thriller he said-let's Flash Mob now up on the promenade. Man, that's when I said-we needed more classes!!!:D He also did the Lady Gaga dance class the same. Three dances we tried to learn. I admit-I was a dancing mess!!!:o Thankfully-there was no Flash Mob involved after that class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sha88 Posted September 23, 2012 #21 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I'm SO going to do this if they have it on the Enchantment of the Seas! We participated on Enchantment a couple of weeks ago. We met up and did YMCA. Learned about during Quest. Fun for us, but not sure onlookers really knew what was going on :-);) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
