Exciting Highlights from the MyNavi DANCEALIVE 2026 Kids Hokkaido Preliminary Event

Report on the MyNavi DANCEALIVE 2026 Kids Hokkaido

On February 14, 2026, a significant event lit up the vibrant dance scene in Sapporo, Hokkaido, as the MyNavi DANCEALIVE 2026 KIDS HOKKAIDO CLIMAX preliminary competition was hosted by Anomaly Co., Ltd. This marking of the KIDS category in the world's largest solo dance battle journey is just the start of an exciting season for young dancers.

The Dance Battle that Inspires

Founded in 2005 as DANCE@LIVE, MyNavi DANCEALIVE has evolved into a remarkable street dance battle format celebrated worldwide. Dancers compete in a one-on-one format, improvising unique moves to tracks selected by DJs, whose playlist remains a mystery until the battle begins. Winning is all about garnering the most votes from judges, making for a thrilling showcase of skill and creativity.

The event is divided into several categories, including five dance styles under the GENERAL division and a KIDS division introducing young dancers to the spotlight. The KIDS category is a platform where talented individuals aged middle school and under can shine and enjoy this exciting battle experience.

Competition Results and Future Prospects

Recently, after fierce competitions held in eight regions across Japan, including Hokkaido, Tohoku, and Kanto, the winners have secured their spots for the upcoming final showdown. Mark your calendars for April 19, 2026, as these exceptional dancers will perform at the grand finale at Ryōgoku Kokugikan.

With such high stakes, the KIDS category has specific regulations ensuring that the most skilled dancers progress. Participation requires being a middle school student or younger, with allowances made for those who may have graduated by the time of the finals. Notably, the competition format includes one-on-one ALL STYLES battles, allowing dancers of various styles to compete without restrictions.

Here’s how the progression works: Each contestant earns points based on their performance in regional preliminaries. The top two point earners from each region advance, along with two additional competitors who triumph in a special WILDCARD showdown held just before the finals. This WILDCARD battle allows for additional opportunities, ensuring that the most deserving dancers have a shot at victory.

Celebrating Dance and Community

This event goes beyond simple competition; it fosters community, talent, and a love for dance among youth. We invite passionate young dancers from various backgrounds to showcase their unique styles and charisma. The excitement leading up to the finals will undoubtedly inspire aspiring dancers across the nation.
