It appears that the man is doing the dance steps so that his kid on the stage can follow him and not forget the moves.

In October 2020, a similarly heartwarming video went viral that showed a man named Chuck Yielding dancing outside a hospital to cheer up his son Aiden who was undergoing cancer treatment. The video was posted on Cook Children’s Medical Center’s Facebook page. According to the Facebook post, Aiden was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukaemia at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic. Due to the restrictions, only one parent was allowed to be with him in the room while he underwent chemotherapy.
