Description[]

Pelvic thrusts can also be used as a dance move, often as part of bump and grind. It is explicitly referred to in the song "Time Warp" from the 1970s The Rocky Horror Picture Show and related stage presentation. One of the first to perform this move on stage was Elvis Presley, which was at the time quite controversial. Due to this, he would normally be shown (as seen on his third appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show) from the waist up on TV.

Making the move[]

The pelvic thrust is the thrusting motion of the pelvic region, which is occasionally used in sexual intercourse.
