Meghan Markle busts out her best moves at cultural event before Prince Harry breaks into a shimmy while visiting school children during their four-day Colombian tour

Prince Harry couldn't resist busting out a little shimmy as he met with children during the second day of his trip to Colombia - a day after Meghan was filmed enthusiastically dancing while attending a special cultural event.

The Duke, 39, and Duchess, 43, of Sussex were welcomed by Colombia's vice-president Francia Marquez and her husband Rafael Yerney Pinillo after arriving in the country on Thursday for the start of a four-day tour. 

That evening, the couple attended an engagement at the Centro Nacional de las Artes Delia Zapata Olivella (CNA), highlighting the artistry of Bogotá. After being greeted by Minister of Culture Juan David Correa, and the Director of CNA Xiomara Suescún, they were treated to theatre, music and dance performances. A video showing Meghan busting taking part in a dance session with locals went viral. 

Then on Friday morning, the couple visited La Giralda school, in the downtown Santa Fe district of Bogota, which is seen as a particularly dangerous and violent suburb. While there, they were treated to traditional Colombian musical performances the children had prepared for the couple's arrival.

Once more, dancing was on the agenda, with Prince Harry being filmed breaking into a shimmy during the visit.

As with their other engagements, Meghan and Harry were accompanied by security detail carrying a bulletproof briefcase to protect the couple from potential shooters - at each event they have attended, the security man has been seen jumping out of a vehicle ahead of the couple holding the folding shield.

And he could also be seen on Friday morning, however, his presence did not seem to phase the Prince, who broke into a shimmy during the engagement.

Video footage from the event shows the father-of-two busting out his best dad dancing moves, as he bends his knees, and waggles his hips while rolling his shoulders and arms.

The bulletproof shield by the local security detail to protect the couple is known as a ballistic briefcase, and is also being used to protect the country's vice president Francia Marquez who is hosting the visit and who has been the target of several assassination attempts. 

Security websites describe the ballistic briefcase as a discreet close protection and a rapid-deployment safety device.

It's non-threatening appearance and easy carry feature makes it ideal for executives, close protection officers and VIP bodyguards.

It can be unfolded rapidly with one hand to provide a sizeable line of defence for ballistic and fragmentation threats.

The engagement saw the couple visit Santa Fe, which has been described as Bogota's red-light district because of its deadly mix of prostitution, drugs and violence. The area is best avoided at night, according to locals.

Despite being surrounded by local security detail - including a man carrying a bulletproof briefcase, Harry seemed unperturbed, as he shimmied along

It featured on Apple TV series No Go Zones - The World's Toughest Places - and was described as an area of 'Colombian gangsters and pimps in charge and all manner of homeless people and addicts find their way to the wasteland of Bogota.'

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were escorted to the school in the Santa Fe area amid tight security with at least 16 armoured police vehicles, as well as armed officers and soldiers, seen on patrol before their arrival.

Their visit to the school, which is overlooked by rundown apartment blocks and several rundown favelas which cling to the nearby hillsides, comes despite Harry's raising concerns over his security arrangements when visiting the UK.

During the appearance, the couple were greeted by the school's headmaster Serafin Ordoñez, before the Duke and Duchess, along with the country's Vice President Francia Marquez, took part in a brief tour.

It saw the couple observe an art session, visit a kindergarten class and get their hands dirty by helping the young students plant trees in the school's garden.

Later in the day the couple shared a private lunch with vice president Francia Marquez, before meeting with members of Colombia's Invictus Games squad, who are gearing up for the 2025 games in Whistler, Canada.

They met with athletes training for the Games, which were founded by the duke, at the Centro de Rehabilitacion Inclusiva. 

Harry and Meghan didn't seem to let the extra security precautions weigh heavily on their minds during their visit

The couple were welcomed by military officials before touring the centre's swimming pool, rock climbing wall gym and rehabilitation facilities, chatting with the athletes about their exercise programmes.

'It's amazing to see how many people can come together to form one team,' Harry said to an Invictus team member while touring the centre's cardiovascular room, Meghan saying the athletes were 'all so incredible to watch.

They were accompanied by Colombia's Vice President Francia Marquez and her partner Rafael Yerney Pinillo, who joined Harry in taking part in the volleyball match.

After the game, Harry spoke to a group of Korean War veterans and the couple toured the centre's art hall which featured artwork created by Invictus athletes. 

Harry's dance moves during the engagement did not mark the first time he has busted out a grove during the four-day trip.

During the couple's first day, on Thursday, the Duke got into the spirit of a traditional performance by showing off some moves.

After being welcomed into the country by Colombia’s vice-president Francia Marquez and her husband Rafael Yerney Pinillo, Harry and Meghan were treated to theatre, music and dance performances at the Delia Zapata National Centre for the Arts in Bogota. 

And it appears Harry got swept away in the vibrant atmosphere as he bounced back and forth from the sidelines as he watched his wife show off her impressive dance moves.

The prince appeared in great spirits as he clapped his hands and beamed as Meghan who joined the dancers in the centre of the room.

He and his wife were treated to a colourful theatrical performance of the play 'The Kiss of the Hummingbird'.

Harry looked on as the outfits, which included multicoloured feathered headdresses adorned with exotic birds, were explained to him.

At the end of the performance Harry and Meghan shook hands with the dancers with the Duke telling one: 'These costumes are amazing.'

Harry is known for dancing while on tours, being spotted showing off his moves during a number of previous trips.

While in Jamaica in 2012, the then 27-year-old royal proved he had good rhythm as he gyrated to a rendition of reggae legend Bob Marley's One Love. 

Meanwhile he was filmed trying to master a traditional dance in Lesotho in 2013.

In jeans and desert boots, the then 28-year-old took part in an impromptu dance session on his knees in the dust.
