AN UPBEAT King Charles showed off his dance moves during a Commonwealth reception last night.
The monarch, 75, was given a lesson in Samoan dancing ahead of his trip to the Pacific Island nation.

Among the guests at the bash were singer Grace Jones, 76, Strictly judge Craig Revell Horwood, 59, and Foreign Secretary David Lammy.
Ex-pro rugby player Freddie Tuilagi, 53, held at a hand and asked Charles to dance with him.
The King put down his drink and was all smiles as he held out his arms and mimicked his teacher’s fluttering hands.
Mr Tuilagi, an honorary consul with the Samoan High Commission, also gave the monarch a ceremonial fly swat.
Speaking about the performance, the former St Helens winger said: “I told King I’m going to dance for you, when you go to Samoa, this is how they will dance.”
In response to Charles’ dancing technique, he added: “Good, he’s got the moves.”
The King was joined by Queen Camilla, as well as Sophie The Duchess of Edinburgh and The Duke of Kent.
Later this month, he will head to Samoa for the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting.
