How does a DC work on TikTok
While there is no hard and fast rule about a dance challenge in the social media app, most of the users seem to follow the same process. Basically one person creates a dance routine and posts it on TikTok. They then challenge other TikTok users to copy their steps along with the music to create a competition.
Usually, a DC does not include different songs. It is supposed to be the same song and the same original steps. You can tag the person that you copied the steps from in your challenge video too.

How to do a DC on TikTok
A dance challenge can be with a specific person or even a group of friends; it is completely up to you. To start a DC on TikTok all you need is a song and some original moves. It is probably a lot easier to simply partake in a DC rather than initiate one since all you have to do is copy the steps!
If you get challenged for a DC you may be tagged in a video. The most important thing is to use the audio that is used in the video. To do so simply tap the Song button in the bottom right. Tap ‘Use this sound’ to add that song to your video.
Now go ahead and copy the dance moves shown in the video. You may want to practice it a few times. Once you are done, go ahead and post the video to your profile! Make sure you tag some more people to keep the DC going!
