What is the Toc Toc dance trend?

The recognizable move combines small hops on one leg with a knocking gesture. The name comes from the song rather than the room or the dancer's jacket. If you found the clip by asking about the French knocking dance, the guy with glasses dancing beside a pool table, or the Kicékéla TikTok dance, this is the same format.

“Toc Toc” is the song's title. “Kicékéla” is a phonetic nickname associated with the French question about who is at the door. Those names help identify the trend across countries. The vswp template is a specific solo version, so a group dancing to the same song is another recording of the trend, not this exact video.

Where does this original video come from?

The verified TikTok clip was posted by @noah_prvv_, whose display name is NLBZ, on September 10, 2026. It shows the dancer entering a living room, performing in front of the camera and leaving again. The soundtrack is “Toc Toc” by Patrick Sébastien; it is retained in the downloadable video.

French radio coverage identifies NLBZ's choreography with the song's return to TikTok, and Italian coverage describes the format as the Toc Toc trend. There is no need to guess a new meme name from the furniture. Nor does the template claim to contain every Toc Toc performance or to be the first use of the song.

Who is in this Toc Toc template?

There is one dancer to replace and one photo slot. The approximately 23-second vertical video is a continuous shot. It opens on an empty room, with a television and sofa behind the dancing area and a pool table on the right. The dancer enters during the first second, steps back, then performs quick hops, raised-knee steps, kicks and hand movements.

Near 19 seconds, the dancer approaches the camera and exits to the right. The final seconds show the room again. This quiet ending is part of the clip, not an invitation to add a second dancer or an extra scene. Your version keeps the full soundtrack and that ending.

Which photo works best for the knocking dance?

The dancer moves from close to the camera to a full-body view, so use a sharp face with natural light and a visible hairstyle. To change the outfit, choose a photo showing the whole person, including trousers and shoes. A cropped selfie cannot supply clothing that is outside its frame.

Fast kicks, crossing hands and the close approach at the end can expose mistakes in a generated take. Check those moments in the preview and full result. Ask a friend before using their photo, and use an image you have permission to share. More examples are in the photo guide.
