Extreme is here to Move Mzansi with a new campaign and Bula Sekele Season 3

Whether it’s the contagious effect of a dance move spreading on the dance floor, or an online dance challenge that goes viral, in Mzansi, we love to move. Extreme’s new campaign captures the ripple effect of positivity and highlights the incredible diversity of South African dance culture, with Extreme serving as the heartbeat of the action.

“Our new campaign is an invitation to the nation to move,” says Extreme senior brand manager Nicole Hewitt. “We hope to spark the idea that you can set off a positive chain reaction through authentic self-expression.”

Each of the talented dancers featured in the campaign represents a different style and region in a country that’s rich in diverse dance culture, from the xilibeni to the Kilimanjaro to the skhotane and beyond. The infectious vibe is sure to spread far and wide as South Africans see these dancers move.

But it’s not only their local dance styles that will move people, as their individual stories are sure to inspire others to express themselves through dance. Each will feature in a docuseries that brings to life the power of dance to transform lives, and pass on the positivity to others, encouraging Extreme Moovahs (that’s you, South Africa) to enter Bula Sekele Season 3.

This year’s much-anticipated Bula Sekele dance-off is now in its third season. With the campaign highlighting the best of Mzansi’s moves from Giyani, eThekwini, Athlone and more. Bula Sekele Season 3 is encouraging South Africans from all corners of the country to bring their own dance style into the circle.
