Dance trends you can do from one photo in October 2026

Updated October 21, 2026 · Reviewed by The Rift team

Short answer

This month you can do the Bow Bow Bow dance, a group dance from one photo, a baby dance, a pet dance and a two-person dance from a single photo. Add the photo to Rift, share the dance clip, and tell Spark, Rift's video agent, who does the moves. Tap Make for one shot of up to 15 seconds.

Dances move quickly, so most of this list is by format rather than by song. Share the clip you like, add a photo, and Spark does the rest. To see how the moves carry over, read how to copy the moves in a video on iPhone.
