Have you ever heard the word haka?It is a traditional dance form the Maori of NZ. It is a posture dance with shouted accompaniment, performed by a group. It called War Cry in English.
This dance shows players threat, fighting mind. Haka are not exclusively war dances, nor are they only performed by men.
Especially the All Blacks perform a haka immediately prior to international matches. Many teams have a lot of types haka. Various actions are employed in the course of a performance, including facial contortions such as showing the whites of the eyes and the poking out of the tongue, and a wide variety of vigorous body actions such as slapping the hands against the body and stamping of the feet. As well as chanted words, a variety of cries and grunts are used.
The song in this dance is sung in Maori. 
I think Japan has no performance like that! I really want
