The moves, step by step
That is really the whole Opa Opa dance. There is no long routine to learn, which is a big part of why it spread so quickly on TikTok.
- Hold the phone at arm’s length, slightly above eye level, so your face and hair fill the frame.
- Bend your knees a little and do small, quick hops in place. Think bounce, not jump.
- Keep your shoulders relaxed and your head fairly still so the hair does the moving.
- Land each hop on the beat of the “opa, opa, op” hook.
- Finish with a look at the camera or a playful expression.
Filming tips for the Opa Opa dance on TikTok
- Face a window or soft light; backlight hides hair detail.
- Wear your hair down. The more it can move, the better the clip.
- Use the sped-up version of the sound that most creators use, so the rhythm matches.
- Record a few takes and keep the one where the bounce looks most even.
