What this template does

The SaWaDiKa dance is the TikTok trend to the chorus of LISA's 2026 song "SaWaDiKa": palms pressed together like the Thai greeting, sharp diagonal arm accents, kicks and hip sways.

What is the SaWaDiKa Dance trend, and where did it start?

"SaWaDiKa" is a song by LISA, the Thai member of BLACKPINK. Its video came out on 3 to 4 September 2026 (the date depends on the time zone) and passed 100 million YouTube views just over 48 hours later, the fastest music video of the year to get there (Bandwagon).

Photo requirements for SaWaDiKa Dance

• Human: stand up, with your whole body in view from head to feet, the face turned to the camera and both arms away from the body. The dance uses the arms, the hands and the legs, so nothing should c…
• Wear what you want to dance in: your clothes stay. No sunglasses, no mask, no hat that hides the face, no beauty filter, and nobody else in the photo.
• Pet: a sharp photo with the whole animal in view and the face clear. Fur colors and markings come from the photo. Cats look closest to the reel; a dog stands upright for the same moves.
• This template is for adults and pets. Use a photo of yourself, of an adult who agreed, or of your own pet. Never a celebrity or a stranger.

Troubleshooting SaWaDiKa Dance

• --- — ---
• The face looks less like you (Human) — Use a sharp photo with the face turned to the camera and good light, then run it again.
• The palms do not meet in the greeting (Human) — Fast hand moves blur sometimes. A second run comes out different.
• A white corset top or a red bob shows up (Human) — The dancer in the trend clip wears both. The prompt bans them unless your photo has them; run it again.
