Could it be the "Year of Dance" for the Olympic Movement? It sure starts to look like that way. Today (23 June) is the "Olympic Day," which is much more than just a sports event, it is a day for the world to get active, learn about Olympic values and discover new sports.

Based on the three pillars move, learn and discover, National Olympic Committees are organising sports, cultural and educational activities throughout the world.

For this Olympic Day 2018, the Olympic Channel has teamed up with  flossin' sensation the Backpack Kid to get everyone moving.

And it is not limited to the Olympic Day: more dancing under the five rings is scheduled for October, when DanceSport puts in its first appearance in the Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympic Games with the discipline Breaking!

Why don't you watch "We dance TOGETHER" on the Olympic Channel? Another four DanceSport disciplines are showcased there!
