High school teacher, Yolanda Turner, rocks her students’ world after busting out impressive dance moves in a dance battle with a student.

Yolanda said, “[The students] were like, ‘Can we have a dance battle? Can we have a dance battle?’”
The students had been working hard on exams all week, so Yolanda decided to indulge their request. The cafeteria started playing “Lose Control” by Missy Elliot, which happened to be a beloved song of Yolanda’s.
“That song, Lose Control, is like one of my favorite songs. It definitely gets everybody off their feet. So when it came on, I was just so hype, and the crowd was hyping me up,” said Yolanda in an interview after the video had gone viral.

While talking about the dance battle, Yolanda said, “I was watching the young man, and I’m like, oh god, don’t make me have to get on these knees, don’t make me have to use these knees.”
Yolanda has been a teacher at Sumner High School for around 23 years. Although she may have seemed old to her students, not anymore! The dance battle unveiled a young and lively woman that had some secret dancing talents.
People have been praising Yolanda on social media, thanking her for caring so much about the students.
“What a blessing to see how teachers can inspire and motivate students in different ways! What a great Christmas present for them to receive before break,” wrote Cindy Snapp on Twitter.
