[Exercise] Jumping is fun! Rhythm Jump Rope Collection (1–10)
Mela!

Mela! by Ryokuoushoku Shakai.
Since it was the set song for the “Let’s Become One! Dance ONE Project,” I think many of you have heard it.
Its fiery lyrics about bonds and courage naturally make you put more energy into the rhythm jumps.
There’s also a section that slows down midway, which is a good chance to catch your breath.
Plus, with various choreography videos available online, it’s perfect if you’re thinking of performing it together with a dance.

It’s a good idea to change the music to match the age of the children doing rhythm jump rope.
For example, once they reach upper elementary grades, I don’t think they’ll prefer songs that feel too childish.
That’s why I’d like to recommend a track called “Shirokuma” by Jabberloop.
It’s known for being used by the dance group KANA-BOON! ALLSTAR at a street dance competition.
The tempo is on the slightly faster side, which makes it easy for both beginners and advanced jumpers to catch the groove.
The overall feel has a jazz-like flavor, giving it a more mature vibe.
It’s also a great pick for anyone who wants to do rhythm jump rope with a stylish atmosphere!
Acorn Korokoro Jump

Doing two things at once is also something you acquire through experience and practice.
Let’s build the ability to jump while singing with the “Donguri Korokoro Jump.” First, use a rope or jump rope to make a circle about 30 cm in diameter.
Start by standing inside the circle, then jump forward → jump back into the original circle → jump to the right → jump back into the original circle, and keep repeating these jumps as you move around the circle.
Do this in time with the song “Donguri Korokoro.” It may take time to get used to it—you might stop singing because you’re focused on the jumps, or sing too energetically and miss the jump direction.
If the rhythm fits, of course you can use other songs as well.
Let Me HearFear, and Loathing in Las Vegas

If you’re an advanced rhythm rope skipper, you probably want to showcase trick after trick to a high-energy track.
‘Let Me Hear’ is perfect for that.
It’s a song by the Japanese electronic music band Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas.
In addition to its fast tempo, the synthesizer sounds create a stylish vibe.
The track is about four minutes long, so you can unleash your skills to the fullest!
My friend — now and forever…Ketsumeishi

Instead of just jumping rope to the rhythm, if you want to showcase it as a performance, this is the song! “Tomo yo ~ Kono Saki mo Zutto…” is a moving ballad by Ketsumeishi that sings about the importance of friendship, featuring lyrics that really hit home.
You can match the mood by swinging the rope sideways without jumping, or folding it up and dancing with it! Performing with a large group completely changes the vibe and adds energy, so it’s highly recommended.
Why not dance to this song with everyone and create irreplaceable memories?
