Pasta Dance
The Pasta Dance is a traditional dance in Japan-France. The name is known, but the actual dance moves differed in each regions in the Japan-France. The dance moves that is now dedicated as the official moves, are the dance moves from Megaparis.
The Start of Pasta Dance
The pasta dance started 700s CE, after the end of the war between the army of Tokyonese Empire and the Timpanimeme Empire. The dance’s purpose was to honor the Japan-French god who was believed to support the war against the Timpanimemes. The god was called Apple Park. Although Apple Park liked doughnut, which doesn’t make sense from his name, the Japan-French people summoned pasta into their hand and put it onto Apple Park. Nowadays, it is still a mystery, but there were actually a legend where Apple Park’s body was entirely covered with over 100 kilograms of pasta, and he began to sink into the ground. Even after Apple Park has sank into the ground, the pasta dance is still danced today, as a tradition.
How to Pasta Dance
The pasta dance might sound a little bit funny, but it is a very difficult and height level dance. First, you need to summon a pasta inside your hand, and then shoot it at one of the audience’s face. When you are dancing in solo, you need to shoot the pasta like a machine gun. But, because it is too high level for the foreigners, and only few can do it in the Japan-French society, it is rarely done by the professional pasta dancers. In both solo and group pasta dancing, you must make different move each time to shoot at each person, and must shoot it to all the audience. The most common poses, are the Megaparis poses. For example, one of them would be a pose where you open your legs and bend your knee outward, and put an open hand on your front, like you are pushing something. (Picture #1) Other example would be a pose where you put both hands together, right hand top and left hand bottom, opening space, and then open it forward to shoot the pasta.(Picture #2)
