After the resurrection, the “Dance Competition” will happen again in JMoF 2025! With a free participation style, unleash your dance to the world! Let’s all dance together, have fun, and have an amazing time!

What Is the Dance Competition?

The Dance Competition is an event where participants compete for the most appealing dancer with their improvised dance. Participants show off their original dance by dancing to the music prepared by the DJ, which will be core street dance genres.

Each dancer has 45 seconds to perform a dance. It’s a special battle where your enthusiasm and creativity will be judged. After 40 minutes, the dancer whose dance leaves the biggest impression will be the winner.

Whether you’ve never participated before or you’re quite experienced, come out and show off your dance moves with all your spirit!

The DJ will be SORAMI. They’ll be playing a wide variety of genres such as Disco, Funk, Hip-Hop, House, and Break Beats. Come and have a listen!

Participation Style

The Dance Competition is a free participation style. No pre-registration is required, and anyone who wishes to participate may perform a dance. Age, experience, and skill level do not matter. Anyone who loves to dance is welcome.

With your unique style, let’s have a wonderful time together with the audience.
