Jodie Sweetin Talks Nailing the Famous 'Stephanie Tanner Dance' Again Almost 30 Years After Full House (Exclusive)

Some dance moves just won’t leave you — ask Jodie Sweetin!

Earlier this year, Sweetin wowed Full house fans everywhere when she recreated the dance her character Stephanie Tanner did to Boyz II Men’s “MotownPhilly” in a 1991 episode — right down to the costumes.

She performed the step-by-step routine in an Instagram video in August alongside Mitchell Gerrard Johnson, both wearing black jumpsuits with sparkly straps and baseball caps.

The original episode was titled “I Gotta Dance” and followed Stephanie shunning friends and family to focus on her dream of becoming a professional dancer. In the end, she decided that her personal relationships were more important.

“Mitchell — who’s the dancer who does all these great recreation videos — he and I met and I was watching the video at home just so I could, you know, come back,” Sweetin told PEOPLE earlier this year at 90s Con in Daytona Beach in Florida. “Weirdly, I said, ‘Oh, right. That!’ It was like in my body.”

Continued Sweetin in September, “By the time we got to the studio and started doing it, I actually knew the whole thing, and he only did the first two point eights. And he said, ‘Wait, you learned the whole thing?’ ”

Full house aired for eight seasons from 1987 to 1995. Sweetin reprized her role in the Netflix reboot Fuller House, which covered five seasons from 2016 to 2020.

Sweetin and former actress Andrea Barber currently run a Full house watch the podcast again How rude, Tanneritos!and they often return to film some of the most famous episodes of the series.

They recently rerun the 1990 episode, “Honey, I Wrecked the House.” In it, Stephanie pretends to be driving Uncle Joey’s brand new car, but manages to accidentally put it in reverse and crash into the Tanner family’s kitchen wall.

“They had a stunt driver, obviously. They wouldn’t let me drive through the kitchen as a kid,” she added in the November episode. “They did one shot where it kind of rolled away, but that was it. And then, the person in the car is a stunt driver, a little person who can get down and look like a kid.”
