This Brilliant Local Dance Video Is Going Viral

If you're looking for some inspirational local talent then look no further. This dance video is going to get your foot tapping and the blood pumping.

Ever heard of Rudi Smit? If not, that’s about to change.

Logging onto Facebook this morning, my wall was covered with shares of his latest video. While I was first put off by the very mention of Meghan Trainor – as that is the feature song – the video was accompanied by comments such as “brilliant”, “worth the watch”, and “if there’s one thing you do today”.

So I watched and guys, you need to watch, too.

Here it is:

How sick?

Rudi Smit is a local dancer and choreographer, and his latest video features over 27 South African dancers. The video, shot and directed by Dylan Pereira,​ was created in the hopes that Meghan Trainor would catch a glimpse of it. Apparently.

And this isn’t Rudi’s first dance video. Working with Willem Botha on almost every project, the two have created pretty shweet dance videos.

It’s a shame we’re only catching on now that Meghan Trainor is in the mix.
