Hibari Misora, the original diva who kept singing throughout the tumultuous Showa era.

What’s your favorite Hibari song? There’s no way to pick just one—from “Kanashiki Kuchibue” and “Tokyo Kid,” which supported the hearts of Japanese people after the war, to “Ringo Oiwake” and “Omatsuri Mambo,” which captivated the early days of television, her peak-era hits like “Yawara” and “Kanashii Sake,” and her late masterpiece “Kawa no Nagare no Yō ni.” So how about moving your body to a Hibari medley instead? Video sites even have clips that teach simple choreography.

I hope you can spend a delightful time along with your memories!

This is a smash hit by BTS that always gets featured in the “Comedians Who Don’t Want to Dance” episode of the hugely popular variety show Ame Talk! Start by watching that episode to get in a cheerful mood, then get your body moving.

Of course, since it’s such a popular song, it’s also perfect for performances at senior clubs or Respect-for-the-Aged events.

Feel free to directly borrow parts where you can imitate BTS—like the signature poses—and customize the tougher sections to fit what you can dance.

It’s a song that lifts your spirits, so it’s also recommended for your regular workouts.

Sazae-san

Sazae-san de Taiso: Sitting Edition

An indispensable presence in the manga life of Machiko Hasegawa, the creator of Sazae-san, was her mother.

When Machiko said she wanted to become a disciple of Suihō Tagawa, the original author of Norakuro, it was her mother who offered no objections and worked tirelessly to help; and when her manga didn’t sell, it was her mother who encouraged and supported her.

I truly feel this is what unconditional love means.

Dancing to the Sazae-san theme song also sounds like fun.

It’s nice that it’s a tune everyone knows.

Since it has a lively tempo, creating our own original choreography would be enjoyable too!

Are you familiar with the DVD that teaches a dance called “Easy Do Dancercise”? Rumor has it that among TRF’s DVDs, this one is their best seller.

So, let’s try moving our bodies using videos of SAM—who is a member of TRF—as a reference! With TRF’s songs, the parts you can train vary by track: “EZ DO DANCE” focuses on strengthening the upper body, like the chest and back, while “survival dAnce ~no no cry more~” works the waist and lower abdomen.

It’s great that you can tailor it to the areas you’re concerned about—like, “If you’re worried about your legs or joints…”—so you can match it to your needs.
