What are the characteristics of Hui dance?

Hui folk dance includes ritual dance and game dance. Etiquette dances include banquet dances and chanting dances. All the songs and dances performed at the banquet are called banquet dances, which constitute the main body of Hui dance. The chanting dance is a funeral dance, which is still preserved among some officials in northwest Islam, that is, "shaking your head while chanting, boxing and dancing while eating" and "stepping on the grave with your feet". This is just a simple dynamic, and it has not yet formed a large-scale dance memorial form. There are two kinds of game dances, one is a sports game similar to boxing, also called "kicking". Originally called "kicking", it is actually a kind of martial arts, which is a self-defense technique for Hui people to go out for business, drive away wheat fields and prevent being attacked. It is also used for leisure in winter. Participants, young and old, can play a role in connecting emotions. The other is "sitting dance". This is a sitting dance. Generally, they sit in a circle and take turns to express their inner joy, anger, sadness and joy in the form of duets, and dance with the "Nine Songs Order" they sing. The main features are strong simulation and crisp and delicate movements.
