Strictly 26 Step Dance Challenge

Our friends at Strictly Come Dancing are BACK with a 26 Step Dance Challenge for 2026! 

Strictly pros Neil, Lethabo, Cristian and Aleksandra have created a brand new routine to ‘Dynamite’ by BTS especially for BBC Children in Need.

Take on the challenge and learn a 26 step routine to perform in front of your class, school, friends or family!

QUICK STEPS TO GET INVOLVED:

  • Watch the below tutorial videos every day for 5 days, presented by Neil, Lethabo, Cristian and Aleksandra!
  • Learn five dazzling dance moves per video (with 1 extra step on Friday!)
  • Put the moves together at the end for a routine worthy of the Glitterball Trophy!

Why not take this on as a sponsored activity to raise money for BBC Children in Need – and set up your very own panel of judges to make it a contest? 

Kick start your Strictly 26 Step Dance Challenge by learning the first 5 steps with Neil and Lethabo!

Ready to learn your next 5 steps? Aleksandra and Cristian are here to teach the next part of the routine!
