Color NinjaOzawa Kazuto
Dress up in colorful costumes and transform into ninjas! Let us introduce “Iro Ninja.” When you think of a ninja’s outfit, what color comes to mind? Many people probably imagine understated colors like black or navy.
This time, let’s dance to “Iro Ninja” while wearing ninja costumes in a variety of colors.
The energetic opening of the song is sure to heighten children’s excitement.
The ninja techniques matched to each color will be the highlight!
Love burst forth.yuzu
This is a song that captures the exhilaration of love with a bright, effervescent pop sound.
It tells the story of a protagonist stuck in a dull daily routine whose heart begins to race after meeting an irresistibly charming person beyond imagination.
Touching on modern social media culture, it’s a refreshing and catchy track that portrays the genuine thrill of romance.
Released in October 2017, the song was chosen as the theme for the film “The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.” starring Kento Yamazaki.
The music video, which features collaborative footage with the movie and a lively ‘twin dance’ performed by the duo Yuzu, also generated buzz.
It’s well-suited for a bright, upbeat school sports-day dance program.
Even kindergarten-aged children can easily enjoy the choreography.
The costumes are easy to get creative with, and it seems like something the kids can help make and have fun with together.
Ta-da-da-da-daaa!
Panpaka Panpan Paan is a song that gives you courage when your environment changes or when you start something new.
Its toe-tapping rhythm will brighten your mood just by listening.
If you’re using it for recreation, why not enjoy a dance to this tune? Form a circle and spin around hand in hand, gather in the center, or simply raise both hands—you’ll still have plenty of fun.
It’s also perfect as a dance song for a school sports day!
Poyoyon March
“Poyoyon March” is a very upbeat song and a fan favorite from NHK’s Okaasan to Issho.
As long as you’ve got your feet, you can keep moving forward—if it’s you, you’ll be fine! With that feeling packed into the music, it’s perfect for dancing.
Since it’s a march, swing both arms, march in place, and dance with lots of energy.
There are lyrics about leaping into the sky, so it could be fun to do a big jump there.
The choreography is up to you, so try imagining kids brimming with energy as you come up with it.

Transform! Ninja-jan!
You can see both cuteness and coolness! Let me introduce “Henshin! Ninja-Jan.” What comes to mind when you hear the word ninja? Many people probably think of their distinctive stealth outfits and throwing stars.

The kids, fully immersed as ninjas, look incredibly cool with their serious expressions!
New EraAdo
Ado’s song “New Genesis,” the theme song of the anime film ONE PIECE FILM RED, is a lively number full of speed and energy.
It’s perfect as a dance track for sports days or school performances.
With an 80s techno-pop vibe, it’s a refreshing, powerful song with a sense of drive.
Its light, upbeat tempo makes you want to start running, matches dances well, and will definitely shine at events like sports days.
With choreography that’s easy to dance yet cool, become the star of your sports day.
Real Gonekāzu
One of the charms of Disney movies is anthropomorphism.
Snowmen talk, and cars and airplanes have human-like personalities—there are all sorts of elements that spark children’s imagination and curiosity.
The film Cars is like that too.
It’s not just a simple good-versus-evil story; friendship and love run deep beneath it all.
Sheryl Crow’s song “Real Gone” pairs perfectly with a cool dance.
It’s also a great BGM choice for school sports days during sprints or relays.
