Michael Jackson’s Real Dance Teacher for 18 years: Poppin’ Taco

The legendary Pop ’N Taco explains some of the work he did for Michael Jackson back in the days. Since he passed away, many people pretend to have worked with Michael Jackson. The truth is Michael Jackson learnt the foundations of locking and popping that are the core of his dance style from their OG’s (e.g., Electric Boogaloos, Original Lockers, etc...) and dancers from Soul Train (e.g., Jeffrey Daniel). In particular, Bruno Falcon aka Pop ’N Taco has been a dance teacher and choreographer for Michael Jackson for 18 years. He worked on various projects with Michael and taught him the art of popping and snaking. Taco’s influence on MJ can be clearly seen when MJ executes his King Cobra and the famous “robotic“ walk from Billie Jean MTV 1995. Spread the word. Spread the truth.
