The Algorithm March is a dance fad created in Japan, based on the children's television series PythagoraSwitch. It is attributed to Arugorizumu Koushin - Itsumo Kokokara.

The basic steps are as follows, repeating as necessary:

  1. Bend knees, reach out straight with hands
  2. Lean back hands on hips
  3. Turn around, bow
  4. Face right, right hand horizon sweep
  5. Bend knees, breast stroke
  6. Pick up from ground
  7. Shake arms downwards (like you are pumping a bicycle tire)
  8. Flap arms


The dance can be performed in lines, moving canon style one at a time. After each movement, the line takes a step forward.
