The spatial and temporal concepts of our people's movement are y rooted in the concepts of "going backward as going forward", "starting point as the end point", "using nothing as something", and "constructing a sphere with arcs". In "Tap Song", the dancer's body is bent forward and backward to match the yin and yang, and the footsteps are virtual and real, wanting to be left first and right first, wanting to be raised first, wanting to be in and out, and gyrating, and the law is consistent with Laozi's "Tao Te Ching", "Repeating the Way".
