Over the years, online challenges have popped up everywhere. One of the most popular trends was the Ice Bucket Challenge to bring awareness of ALS. To complete this challenge, people would have a bucket of ice water dumped all over them. The challenge included quite a few big-celebrities like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Will Smith, Vin Diesel, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga, and even the now-President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. There have also been a few silly challenges that were just for kicks, such as the one where folks had to eat a spoon of cinnamon.
However, there’s one fun challenge on the internet today that also promotes healthy exercise. The Git-Up challenge was inspired by a country song called “The Get Up” by Blanco Brown. The challenge usually involves a group of individuals performing the dance moves as one. And the thing about this challenge is that it’s all about the dance moves. And as you can imagine, the net is flooded with some pretty wild submissions. However, one young cowboy decided to take up this challenge solo. And boy, are we glad he did because we really got to see some incredible dancing from this spunky little dynamo! The little guy is all decked out in blue jeans, a white button-down dress shirt, cowboy boots, and of course, a well-fitted cowboy hat. He starts off the dance slowly while mouthing the words to the song. And while he may be small, don’t let that fool you for a minute — This young man has moves that most adults couldn’t pull off in their wildest dreams.
He even punctuates his performance with a couple of cute nods that really gives it that something extra that tickled us with delight.
As the music heats up, so does the little boy’s moves as he slides from one side of the room to the other, giving his cowboy boot heels a nice quick click. And this kid also displays some amazing hip movements, the sort you would expect to see while watching a professional dancer pull off on Dancing with the Stars. His timing and rhythm are perfectly in-sync with the music, and he never misses a single beat. His body seems to move in every direction that the song takes him.
The comments on social media all seem to praise this young man’s talent. One poster wrote: “Take it to the left now and dip with it,” he does just that. He then gets his hips into the groove, executing perfect timing to the words, “Now lean back, put your hips in the Whoo-hoo-hoo; let’s have some fun!” While he has a serious look on his face, you can just tell he’s having a blast doing this.
Now, while the song does give us step-by-step instructions on how to dance, it still requires a great deal of natural talent and/or practice to make them look as good as he makes them look. And the little boy doesn’t just make the moves look good; he owns the song.
Even if you have two left feet on the dance floor, the Git Up Challenge is one you should give a try, because it’s a heck of a lot of fun! You can even find a couple of tutorials online that will show you all the moves and steps for each verse, as well as the chorus of the song. Who knows? Maybe you might find yourself becoming the next online dancing sensation?
