Turning Up (R3HAB Remix)arashi
It’s a song with an exciting vibe that’s really fun to listen to.
It incorporates rap and has lots of variations within its bright tone, so it never gets boring.
The music video is super cheerful, and seeing the dancers and the members of Arashi having fun through the screen makes you feel excited too.
It’s also a style that’s pretty rare among Arashi’s songs.
As a cheer dance track, every element feels like a perfect fit.
The moderate tempo might make it easy to dance to.
Rat-tat-tatSandaime Jē Sōru Burazāzu fromu Eguzairu Toraibu
Just hearing the intro gets you hyped! It’s a track by the music group Sandaime J Soul Brothers from EXILE TRIBE, released digitally in 2019.
It’s super cool yet somehow comical! The upbeat rhythm and scatted melodic lines will stick in your head.
It’s a high-energy dance number I recommend when you want to get the venue as fired up as possible.
Don’t overthink it—just let loose, have fun, and dance!

Number one songShonan no Kaze & Nakata Yasutaka
Cheer dance is cute… That’s the image, right? How about blowing that away with this song.
It’s a masculine electronic number by the popular group Shonan no Kaze and music producer Yasutaka Nakata.
Since it’s the theme song for the game Yakuza: Like a Dragon, many of you might already know it.
The lyrics deliver a fiery message: no matter how many times you fail, get back up and keep moving forward! On the day of your cheer dance performance, let this song give you courage and show off the results of your practice to the fullest!
In conclusion
These days, a major wave of change is sweeping through dance music, and stylish dance tracks built on simple arrangements are becoming mainstream.
On top of that, the most talked‑about trend—1980s disco—is being mixed into the sound, making it a tough era for those on the dance floor (lol).
If you’re unsure about choosing music for cheerleading, why not tap into the trends?
