Will Thomas is the youngest of three kids raised in Troy, Michigan. At 11 years old, Will began taking dance classes locally. He instantly fell in love and attended every dance convention nationwide that his schedule (and parents) would allow.
At the age of 18, Will moved to Los Angeles to expand his craft. Before he had even arrived in LA, Will was represented by a newer agency, enrolled in 3 acting classes a week and set up a schedule to attend as many dance classes as possible! His hard work paid off as he began working professionally.
Will learned that his strength was his versatility. Because of this, he has been casted in stage work, television, commercials, movies, and has been a guest teacher all over the world.
Will has enjoyed dancing for Disney’s Raven, The Jonas Brothers, and the Cheetah Girls. He has also danced for artists such as Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Zendaya, Brendan Urie, Ariana Grande, Jennifer Lopez, Chris Daughtry, Patti LaBelle, and Michelle Williams. Many of the performances were for the VMAs, EMMYS, Critics Choice Awards, Radio Disney Music Awards and more.
His dancing and acting can be seen on television shows like “So You Think You Can Dance”: Season 9 (top 4 guys), “Nashville”, “Hit the Floor”, “Ellen”, “Parenthood”, “World of Dance”, “Superstore”, “Rupaul’s Drag Race: All Stars”, “X Factor”, “20/20” and more. Will has also been casted in films such as “Pitch Perfect 3”, “Marry Me”, “Renfield”, and “Spirited” which is scheduled to be released in the fall of 2022.
One of Will’s proudest accomplishments is America’s #1 prime time TV show, “The Masked Singer”. Will began dancing on the show in season #1 and by season 4 was hired as an assistant choreographer. Sense he has assisted choreographers for “SYTYCD”, short films, music videos and commercials, Will was excited for the opportunity. It paid off and Will has been a choreographer on the show since season 5. His choreography can also be seen on “The Price is Right” and a docu-series called “Meddling” based on an Olympic ice skating scandal.
Those who know Will understand that he has a lot of energy. When he’s not on set or at rehearsal, he has been traveling to every LA Dance Magic convention weekend as a faculty member. He loves to teach kids who are dancing where his dreams began and for his mentor who paved the way, Jackie Sleight.
You can find Will living in Los Angeles, still chasing those dreams.
