If he did have a human behavior consultant then ok, but it was also true that Bill tried to make the show as close to a real family as possible. So Denise bumping him was just indicative of something she wanted to do at the time so she just did it. And she really looked like she wanted to dance, if she was mad at him, i don't think she would have moved too much, maybe like how vanessa didn't dance too much in the " season credits"( when bill pushed her on the stage and she just stood there, then slowly did something).
There was a lot of dancing throughout the run of The Cosby Show. The kids used to put on those dancing routines together for their parents and their grandparents. They didn't do them on their own I'm sure. Bill Cosby was too much of a perfectionist to allow that.
As for the opening dance sequences, there's not a doubt in my mind that they were coached.
And, yes, there was a human behavior consultant on the show. His name is Dr. Alvin Poussaint, and he was interviewed on The E! True Hollywood Story--The Cosby Kids.
