About This Thriller Hen Party Dance Class in Gloucester
When dusk settles over Gloucester's medieval core — the leaning timber fronts near the Cross, the shadowed stone of Blackfriars, one of the best-preserved friaries left in the country — the city takes on exactly the graveyard hush that Michael Jackson's Thriller made famous. Turn a hen party loose in that atmosphere and the bride leads her very own horde of the risen undead.
Your choreographer breaks down the moves everyone waits for — the lurching zombie shuffle, the rolling shoulders, the sudden head-snap and those unmistakable claw hands — set to the track's creeping, finger-snapping groove. It comes in slow, clear sections and layers together, so a group that arrives unsure walks out moving in eerie, spot-on unison.
There is nothing to fear on the dance front: no experience is asked for and the steps are pitched for absolute beginners, taught with a great deal more laughing than shrieking. We run the session in a city-centre studio or come to your venue anywhere across Gloucester — you simply decide how much fake blood is too much.

What Our Hens Say
Thriller hen parties we have taught across Gloucester.
"Learning the actual Thriller routine was on my bucket list and we finally did it for my hen. Twelve zombies snapping their heads in time — the video is genuinely brilliant."
— Cerys Lydney ★★★★★"We went full ghoul with the make-up and the claw hands looked incredible against the old buildings. So much more laughing than screaming, and the bride led the lot of us."
— Marta Vinnicombe ★★★★★"None of us had a clue and by the end the whole group hit the big section together. Easily the most memorable thing we did all weekend."
— Petra Selwyn ★★★★★"The instructor came to our house, dimmed the lights and had a room of nervous mates shuffling like the undead within the hour. Cleverest hen idea we've had."
— Dilys Rennick ★★★★★Thriller Hen Party FAQ
Everything you need to know about our Thriller hen party dance class in Gloucester.
Is it the actual Thriller choreography? +
Yes — we teach a faithful, group-friendly version of the routine everyone knows, including the shuffle, the claw hands and the big synchronised sections. It is the real thing, simplified enough for beginners to nail.
Do we need any dance experience? +
None whatsoever. The moves are broken into small, clear pieces and repeated until the group has them, and there is far more giggling than screaming while everyone finds their inner zombie.
Can we go all-out with the costumes and make-up? +
Please do. Torn clothes, ghoulish make-up and a bit of fake blood only make it better on camera. Just keep your footwear something you can actually move in.
Where does the class take place? +
In a city-centre Gloucester studio, or at your own venue — a hall, hotel room or Airbnb — anywhere across the city and county. We bring the music and the routine to wherever the hens gather.
How much is it? +
A flat £140 for an hour or £165 for ninety minutes, covering the instructor and choreography for any group size. Bubbly can be added for a flat £10 if you fancy one before the undead rise.
How many can take part? +
From a small group of close friends up to thirty-plus. A bigger horde just wants a bit more floor space, which we plan out with you when you book.
