Style characteristics of classical dance

The styles and characteristics of classical dance are as follows:

1, the combination of body and rhyme, both form and spirit: classical dance emphasizes the combination of dance movement techniques and artistic connotation, thoughts and feelings. The forms of dance include static and dynamic dances, and the connection between movements, initial momentum and charm reflect the feelings of dancers and dances themselves.

2. Classical dance has a strong nationality: Classical dance is developed from China opera dance and China martial arts, and some movements in the dance are obviously influenced by martial arts, opera and national music, forming a unique style with strong nationality.

There are many forms of classical dance: single dance, double dance and group dance, as well as men's dance and women's dance.

Classical dance is a dance form named in 1950s, and it is a representative branch of China dance. The initial basic training combined with the training system of ballet, on the basis of traditional folk dance, is considered as a classical dance with Chinese style after refining, sorting, processing and creation by professional workers.

Style characteristics:

"Body rhyme" is the general term for "body method" and "rhythm". "Body" belongs to the external technique category, and "rhythm" belongs to the artistic connotation. Only by organically combining and infiltrating them can we truly embody the style and aesthetic essence of China classical dance. In other words, "body rhyme" means "having both form and spirit, integrating body and mind, and integrating inside and outside", which is an indispensable symbol of China classical dance and the artistic soul of China classical dance.

Although the source of style of body rhyme is obvious, it can no longer be called "drama dance", and its transformation from drama to dance has been basically completed. It got rid of the ever-changing roles of opera and dance. However, no matter how it changes, it is the same. This "one" and this "change" are both rare figures in art and the essence of artistic aesthetics.
