"Nyan Para☆Dance" Choreography (for Middle Preschoolers) [Kindergarten/Nursery/Certified Childcare Center/Sports Day/Recital]

Let me introduce “Nyan-Para☆Dance,” a routine full of adorable, cat-like moves.

The dance features motions that resemble a cat stretching its body or reaching out its paws.

Along with the “nyan” phrases in the lyrics, get into character as a cute kitty and move your body.

Imagining soft, supple motions may help you look even more cat-like.

Try adding adjustments to suit different ages and have fun with it.
