Senbonzakura is a song written, composed, and arranged by Kurousa-P.

It has been covered by many artists and remains hugely popular in “tried singing” and “tried playing” videos.

It’s a big hit with children—why not dance to it cheerfully and energetically? In keeping with the title “Senbonzakura,” you could use cherry blossom branches, and since it has a traditional Japanese flavor, it would also look great with Japanese-style costumes.

If your team incorporates movements like Yosakoi, it could become a wonderful performance for a school sports day and a great memory with friends.
