[RemyLanslots]

Seeing such a many people dancing together as one, in a unity, it's just beautiful! I have deep respects for every Japanese person who has ever danced this dance.

I love this dance!! I danced in for Mayday at my old high school!! It was awesome! A lot of fun, one of my favorite dances for Mayday. You have to have strong leg muscles for this dance however and be pretty flexible. Haha I still remember the moves for this dance.

[kwl912]

that guy in front ruins this dance with his lack of effort compared to everyone else.

[amaralmatthewtk]

@kwl912 yeah i see what you mean. but maybe he just didn't feel like doing it?

[rbdfreak06]

There's a foreign exchange kid in my english class that goes to this uni... lol

[linnepin007]

I performed this with some other classmates and the Japanese exchange students at my school a couple of weeks ago too xD

[amaralmatthewtk]

i'm doing this for mayday!

[XDSakuraBlossomXD]

The Japanese students that came to our school also did this. They wore those same outfits too and gave them to us after.

[HinaJapanFreak]

Epic Win.

The Japanese Exchange Students That Came Over To My School Did This.

[ciccarello]

lol i like at 6:40 when the lay on the guys knee, looks like he is/or actually is touching... lol

[grandboy12]

there are many soran bushi's steps..

[warl0rd11]

I agree. And I'm doing Yaren Soran for my AP Project in Japanese xD

Gotta dance in front of the class.

[BunshinNoKakashi]

Could you upload the video on youtube then. =O

[glayiscool]

lol my school is preforming this ...and a few other schools too, but our japanese class is filled with people shouting so-ran! and dokoisho! lol but anyway thanks for the video...even if the credits took forever...

[redarcher950]

I think that the credits and everything put into this was needed and that this was one of the most talented groups i have seen do So-Ran Bushi and i am so impressed.

[4hungryhungryhippos]

hey bklockhart. since you were the instructor of this group, do you have any tips for doing the so-ran bushi? because i have to do in japanese for the unity festival. It's a lot of work!

[reddysn33blet]

I did it at school, best tips are to watch the moves closely and learn them steps at a time, then work on the whole thing and begin compiling parts together, then practice. Doing this with some friends or having an interest with it are good aspirations too. Hope this helped somehow.

[scooternak53]

What's the connection with UCD and Hosei University?

[ariadne345]

Yes, definitely awsome! And it looks like these students had really a lot of fun performing it!

[xnoelle25]

wait. i go to davis. and i do soran bushi... thiss is weird.

[benkyouka]

So-ran Bushi performances are awesome!

[bodyboarderz]

yeah gojogongua has got a point cut to the freakin soran bushi instead of all this credits...

[bklockhart]

You and Gojo have got a valid point. When I made this, though, as their instructor, I wanted to mention their school as well as show them some appreciation. They practiced SO HARD for this! Also, I was "experimenting" a bit with iMovie as it was relatively new for me. That said, how hard is it to let the "freakin'"video load and slide forward to the dance? Enjoy...

[shorinjiryuu]

It is hard but I can do it and these guys have modified the dance heaps so even though my form is mostly better, their's looks better. But I'll tell you, after the 1st day of practice, your thighs hurt heaps but from there on in it gets easier every day and it helps if you are really flexible (which I'm not) so I think i'll go and work on that again now.....

[shinreifreakz]

i've tried to practice the soran bushi, but it's so hard!!!

[JFJD]

Because the video maker has to show his appreciation of the students.

[Gojogongua]

Why not cut right to the soran bushi, and save us all two minutes?

[guatemaleco]

yey! I saw myself online.
