What is the Shake It trend?
"Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot is a 1992 hip-hop classic, and remixes and mashups of it keep turning up on TikTok. Our Shake It template comes from one of those mashups, joined to a Latin chant, and it was added to the AI Dance app in February 2026.
The dance is playful more than technical. It starts with the hips bouncing from side to side and the hands near the waist. The dancer turns to the side, touches the chin and pops a hip on the beat, turns back, brings a hand to the forehead as if amazed, rolls the fists in a circle and points to the chest. A quick shoulder roll, another turn to the side and a hip pop finish it.
Each move comes with a face, so this is a template for a photo with a lot of personality. Our reference is a half-body clip, so a photo from the waist up works.
The moves
Hip bounces from side to side with the hands near the waist, a turn to the side with a touch to the chin and a hip pop, back to the front with a hand on the forehead, rolling fists and a point to the chest. A shoulder roll, a turn to the side and a final hip pop. Playful and bouncy.
How to make the Shake It video
Everything runs in your browser. No editing app and nothing to film.
Step 1: Add your photo
Upload one clear photo of you or a friend, facing the camera, as much of the body in the frame as you can.
Step 2: Tap Make my video
The Shake It dance costs 2 credits. The AI copies the moves onto your photo while you wait, about a few minutes.
Step 3: Download and post
You get a 15 second 9:16 MP4. Post it on TikTok, Reels or Shorts and add the sound inside the app.
Best photo for Shake It
The photo decides most of the result. These tips are for this dance.
Works well
- A waist-up or full-body photo both work: the moves are hips, hands and face.
- Pick a photo with a lively expression. Each move comes with a face.
- Keep both hands empty and visible for the fist rolls and the chin touch.
- Use a sharp photo in bright light.
- One person per photo. The AI animates the biggest person in the frame.
Gives weak results
- Group photos, or a second person cut off at the edge
- Faces turned away, covered or in deep shadow
- Blurry or very dark photos
- Heavy filters, stickers or text on the photo
Post it on TikTok, Reels or Shorts
- Your video comes without music. A Baby Got Back remix or any playful hip-hop sound fits.
- Keep the caption cheeky and short.
- Pair it with a friend's version and post them side by side.
Add Baby Got Back (mashup) by Sir Mix-A-Lot from the sound library of the app you post to, so your video uses the official track.
