Basic Movements of Classical Chinese Dance

One, Shape

Chinese Dance emphasizes the curvature of "twisting, tilting, rounding, curving, tilting, bending, flipping, rolling" and "strong, straight, upright, and strong," on the human body form. The Chinese dance emphasizes the curves of "twisting, tilting, rounding, curving, tilting, bending, tilting, turning, curling" and the temperament of "robust and upright, subtle and flexible". From the unearthed tomb figurines and Dunhuang murals, it is not difficult to see that this is a lineage from ancient times to the present and the continuous development and evolution.

Shen

Shen Yun is an exceptionally important concept in the basic movement elements of Chinese dance. In the concept of heart, the connotation of qi, breath and intention is emphasized. It can be said that without rhyme there is no classical Chinese dance. Without the excitement and drive of inner emotion, the most important luster of classical Chinese dance is lost.

Three, strength

"Strength" is the inner rhythm of the external action and the intensity of the hierarchy and contrast. It is often in the soothing but not slow, tight but not chaotic, free and regular "elastic" rhythm. "Strength" is not only in the process of movement, but also in the end of the movement is very important. Whether it is opera, ballet, martial arts routines are very important to the end of the action before the instant rhythm processing, Chinese classical dance is no exception.

Fourth, the law

"Law" is a word that connotes two meanings: the rhythmic nature of the action itself and the law that the movement follows. Whether it's a one-two punch, the smoothness of the smooth, or the opposite of the reverse momentum, or "from the opposite side", are embodied in the Chinese classical dance of the round, swim, change, the beauty of the illusion, which is precisely the Chinese "dance law" of the essence of the place.
