Super Sentai Dances

Since Sun Vulcan, there have been moments in Super Sentai spread throughout its history where a dance accompanied the ending theme or some other song to entertain younger viewers and encourage them to join in. In later years, some of the dances became so popular that they were spread on social media and even got actors from other Toei superhero franchises or past Sentai seasons involved in performing them.

Sun Vulcan
An early prototype of things to come, Sun Vulcan had an episode where the team danced with the children at a school to the song Kagayake! Sun Vulcan by Ichiro Mizuki and Koorogi '73. This would serve as a precursor to the ending theme dance tradition.

A dance that was featured in a special. Kaori Rokumeikan, untransformed, does an aerobics style dance with her teammates. After finishing, she guides the audience through each of the dance steps, doing them slowly so the viewer can learn each step.
