麻豆约拍

Oti Mabuse shows her appreciation for the dancers and choreographers who have transformed the dancing world.

In today鈥檚 episode, she is joined by choreographer, presenter (and also big sister) Motsi Mabuse. Motsi developed a successful professional career including winning the German Championship before moving to become a judge on Let's Dance in Germany and Strictly Come Dancing in the UK.

Motsi has worked with various dancers and choreographers in her career, but she says the person who has had the greatest influence on her is Olga Muller.

Olga is a former World Latin Champion who was celebrated during the 1990s as one of the figureheads of competitive German dance. Motsi and Oti, who were both trained by Olga, go down a personal memory lane as they reminisce about their time under her tutelage in the dance studio.

The dance adjudicator Colin James helps to tell the story of Olga鈥檚 life and career, and Oti is joined in the studio by her husband, the dancer Marius Iepure, to learn a routine inspired by this dancing legend.
