Para Para

Para Para (パラパラ?, "Para-Para" or "ParaPara") is a popular Japanese synchronised group dance. Unlike most club dancing and rave dancing, there are specific, preset movements for each song, and everyone does the same moves at once, much like line dancing.

Para Para is said to have existed since the early 80's, when Europe started selling Italo Disco, Euro Disco and later New Wave music in Japan but did not achieve much popularity outside of Japan until the late 90's, when the popularity boom of para para took place.
