The invisible step is a dance move in which a person pretends to step on, then over, an invisible step. The move started to gain popularity in 2014, but gained the most fame when a video of cheerleader Ariel Olivar doing the move went viral in December 2017.
The move consists of a person touching the invisible step, then lifting one foot to "step" on the step, then pushing off with the other foot to make it seem like they're stepping on and over the invisible step. Obviously, there is no step, so the person performing the move must have enough strength and control to create the illusion that they're stepping on a step. The move may be done when actually dancing or just for fun to show off to other people. The move is also known as invisible box.
