At only two years old, William Stokkebroe became a sensation when his dance to Elvis Presley’s ‘Jailhouse Rock’ went viral.
Wearing jeans and a checkered shirt, William showcased remarkable dance skills. His parents, Kristina and Peter Stokkebroe, who are professional dancers and operate a dance studio in Denmark, greatly influenced his early dance exposure.
The event was the gala opening of Studie43, attended by William’s parents and their dance colleagues. When “Jailhouse Rock” played, William confidently took to the dance floor and started to jive.
His performance included elements of the Paso Doble, a dramatic Spanish dance associated with bullfighting, which added a theatrical flair to his moves.
Throughout his dance, William’s joy was evident. He moved energetically across the floor, even singing along with the music at times.
His performance concluded with a bow in the center of the dance floor, which earned him cheers and applause from the audience.
The video of his dance quickly gathered millions of views online, making William an internet star.
