I've been doing this for a/b a year and it slimmed the heck outta my arms!!
since this style of dance is mostly using the arms~

It's called parapara or techpara~ I believe I mention this awhile ago but I thought parapara/techpara deserved more attention~ =P since it's so great and fun to do once you get the dances down~

at first it seems kind of hard to do.. and the dances seem so complicated to people... but you're actually wrong~ that's your mind telling you that b/c it's unfamiliar with the style~

If you watch the dances a few times and get ahold of the moves they do,they're actually easy to do!

and it's worth learning b/c if you do it for awhile you will sweat~ and it looks so cool!! xD
----
below are some examples of parapara and techpara (techpara is actually just a faster version of parapara from what I know)


here~~ is an advanced techpara~ when you get used to the dance style and know what you're doing~ you migh tbe able to pull off dances like this:

This is one of the easier techpara dances:

this is a J-Euro parapara dance~ J-euro is basically just a japanese pop song that's been remixed to sound like eurobeat~ (eurobeat is the main kind of parapara music)~

along with my one of my favorite parapara songs!!:

an easier parapara dance I'd have to say would be:

and if you think that's too hard then I don't blame you~ but there are ALOT easier ones out there~ trust me~ I just couldnt' find an easy one on youtube~ =P

Any questions on parapara or tech para~ feel free to ask me!! I've been doing this style dance for years now and I know alot!! I just wanted to spread the word on this wonderful dance style!!! x3

If you have any questions on where to buy ParaPara DVDs or VCDs then I will give you all the info you need on it~!!!

(VCDs are cheaper and have no region, which is good b/c this stuff is import from Japan, which has a different region code on their DVDs than we do.. however you can play whatever region you want right here on your computer usually, but I still reccomend the VCDs more than anything)
 
i was hoping people would at least check this out b/c para dance is one of my passions that i've worked so hard on~ and it's a great workout too~ =o

oh well~ nobody's ever been very interested anyways~ =|
 
thank you for the links......I watched the easy and the hard one and it seems pretty interesting. I'd love to give it a try but i'm not sure if i'm going to be able to keep up with them :p
 
Hi! I just looked at all your links and although that dancing is not my style it was very interesting to watch. I can see how it would be easy to get into. :) Thanks for sharing!!! I enjoyed watching the video clips!!!
 
hey man, this is cooooooooooooooooooool lol
that hyper techno waros thing looks funky, i watched it like 5 times hahaha
man that beat is awesome, and those dancers go with it lol
whats this stuff called? para para? haha its great :D i want more vids lol
 
That seems like a lot of fun! I'd feel silly doing it, but as a dancer I've done much sillier and I bet it will be a lot more fun! Thanks!
 
Hahahahahahahahahahhahaha!!!! Those Asian pop stars have craaaaaaaaaaaaazy dance moves!! This is SOOOO funny i laughed so hard and sent it to my japan-mad sister. Thanks! I'm actually ..going.. to try this!! When i'm home alone obv. :)

Skater.
 
That looks like one heck of a workout...I'll bet they are pooped when they leave the club! :D

It seems to me that if you push back on the heels of your feet when standing and doing that dance that it would also give your inner thighs a good work out and I'm ALWAYS looking for ways to help with that area.

Great find! I love to dance and so does my daughter, even if I don't get it quite right I'd imagine that I'd still burn quite a few calories. And on top of that, my daughter and I will have great fun dancing around. Thanks again!:)
