However, some decided Djokovic’s dance was not good and trolled him.
He lacks the dancing talent.

Novak Djokovic recreated viral TikTok dance with young players during off-season break
Novak Djokovic chose to spend his off-season in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. He is training their and following his own fitness routines, opting not to participate in many exhibition events. He was not involved with the 2023 World Tennis League even as stars like Daniil Medvedev and Iga Swiatek played the off-season exhibition tournament in Abu Dhabi. Instead, he preferred to play volleyball with his team and friends less than a hundred miles away in Dubai. The World No.1 will play his only off-season match against Carlos Alcaraz in Saudi Arabia at the Riyadh Season Cup on December 27.
During his sojourn in Dubai, Djokovic trained at the Rackets Academy. A video of him learning trending TikTok dances from the children at the academy went viral. Fans gushed over the Serb attempting to copy their moves and eagerly awaited the final outcome.
A few days ago, they got their wish. Rackets Academy, in collaboration with one of their youth players, shared a video on Instagram of Djokovic executing a popular TikTok move. While he was far from perfect, he won hearts as the children were overjoyed to have a legend of the sport dancing with them.
