Let's Dance 2026SHE is Gustav Schäfer's biggest fan – and sets the tone during training
She has been particularly supportive of Gustav Schäfer since episode 1 – and almost steals the show!
We're talking about his little daughter Lotti. Although she didn't believe in her dad's dancing talent at first, she cheers for him episode after episode – and also sets the tone in training, as you can see in the video above. And that's sweet.
As soon as her dad enters the dance floor, Lotti gets going too, Gustav says happily: “We heard it again today.” The nine-year-old screams for her dad as soon as she hears the first bars of music. But his daughter is not just a fangirl – she is also a social media manager, the 37-year-old reveals. Week after week, Lotti provides Gustav and Anastasia with matching TikTok dances.

“It doesn’t cost any money,” jokes Gustav shortly after Show 3 about his daughter’s social media management skills. “Well no, joking aside. But she does it well. She's been spamming us with ideas all week.”

During Gustav and Anastasia's Let's Dance training! There's a new TikTok dance every Monday
But the nine-year-old doesn't just provide ideas, she also dances along herself. This is now a regular routine in the “Let’s Dance” training plan. Immediately after the break, the student comes to Gustav and Anastasia's dance studio every Monday and then the training really begins. We then work on the TikTok dance performance together with Lotti – “and then we shoot it”.
And the result is impressive. The videos already have tens of thousands of likes. “Please stay in until the end so we can see dances from the three of you until the end! So: all the ladies are pressed!” and “Lotti rocks it like every week,” is what the comment column says, among other things. Which hit Gustav and Anastasia will dance to next week is still a surprise – both on the “Let's Dance” stage and with Lotti on TikTok. But anticipation is the best joy.
