[Mera Dance] Choreography You Can Dance at a Sports Day

Sports Day 4-Year-Olds’ Performance ‘Mera!’

[Koganei] R4 Sports Day 4-year-olds’ performance ‘Mera!’

Here’s a choreography idea for a Mera Dance that 4-year-olds can perform.

It starts by keeping rhythm with their feet and striking a pose.

They’ll spread their arms wide, spin around and clap, making it a fun routine that makes you want to dance.

There are highlight moments where they can do big jumps and choose their own poses freely.

Just be careful with the part where friends take turns standing up and crouching down.

It’s a wonderful dance for a sports day—cool yet cute, perfectly suited to 4-year-olds!

‘Mela!’ with Wotagei

[Wotagei] Mela! / Ryokuoushoku Shakai [Zero-uchi]

If you want to get pumped up with big, energetic movements, we recommend incorporating “otagei.” Otagei refers to the dances that fans perform at idol concerts and similar events.

You’ve probably seen people dancing with light sticks at least once.

The appeal is that you can move your body dynamically and quickly.

At the same time, the moves themselves aren’t complicated, which is a nice plus.

If you’re indoors, try dimming the lights and using a light stick while you practice.

With simple movements that instantly look lively—like big claps overhead while jumping, or exaggerated marching steps with broad upper-body motions—the dance is designed to be eye-catching while staying easy.

The highlight is in the chorus, where everyone jumps and strikes their favorite pose!

[BLOOM] “Mela!” Original Choreography

Original choreography [BL00M] Danced to “Mela!”

This choreography strongly reinforces the lyrics, so just watching the dance makes the content of the lyrics sink in more, doesn’t it? In other words, it might also mean that for the dancers, it’s easier to anticipate the next moves.

And since the members often either do the same movements or perform symmetrical ones, it feels like it could work well even if not everyone is present.

The excitement builds toward the second half and the dancing gets more intense, so try to pace yourself as you perform.

[For Nurseries and Kindergartens] “Mela!” Original Choreography

Ryokuoushoku Shakai – Mela [Original Choreography] Sports Day Dance and Recital Dance for Nursery Schools and Kindergartens

Here’s a recommended idea for those looking for choreography for preschools and kindergartens.

This approach keeps the choreography simple while making the most of “Mela!”—its powerful tone and exhilarating, fast-paced sound.

For example, use a box step during the A section and side steps during the B section.

You can also match the rhythm by making big arm circles or flipping the backs of your hands front and back.

With this, everyone from small children to adults can get excited using the same choreography!

How about trying choreography that incorporates a jump rope? First, in the first verse, bundle the jump rope in your hand and twirl it toward the ground.

In the pre-chorus, keep holding the rope while marking steps.

Then, in the hyped-up chorus, rotate the rope as if twisting it while marching in place.

There are many other possible moves, so feel free to add your own variations.

It could also be fun to use moves unique to a group, like having two people hold and swing the rope together.
