DANCER Bontle Modiselle can add “Guinness World record holder” to her list of achievements. She got the nod from Guinness World Records for the largest amapiano dance, along with musician Alfa

Taking to Instagram, a proud Modiselle reflected on the achievement, calling it a “true honour”.

“We did it @quintusjansen! Thank you so much for trusting me with this. A true honour! Shoutout to my bro @alfakat_ on the fire production of the music. Thank you to @tllhogi_m & @kananelo_n_ who were my amazing support – I’m blessed and happy to share moments with you two,” she wrote.

“To every dancer who came and showed up, thank you for making it all possible. It would have been nothing without you. This is an incredible moment for South African Dance History to be cherish forever.”

Her post was followed with messages congratulating her on the achievement.

TV personality Minnie Dlamini wrote: “Congratulations darling.”

Modiselle has earned herself a reputable name when it comes to choreography in the country. International singer Kelly Rowland turned to her dance studio for lessons in April when she visited South Africa.

In January, Modiselle opened up her own dance studio in Maboneng, Johannesburg, which offers dance classes from beginner level to advanced.
