Virginia McLaurin never thought she would be in the White House with a black president.

On Sunday, the 106-year-old was the special guest at the White House and got to meet and dance with President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama.

The White House shared this video of McLaurin excitedly dancing as she sees the president. She said the secret to dancing at her age is to just “keep moving.”

She was welcomed into the White House in honour of Black History Month.
