Characteristics of Mongolian Dance Style

Because I have lived in the geographical environment and climate of grassland for a long time, I have worshipped the mountains, rivers and eagle totem since ancient times, thus forming the characteristics of vigorous, implicit, stretching and heroic Mongolian dance. According to different kinds of dances, they have the following characteristics:

First, the bowl dance-elegant and subtle

Bowl dance is generally a female solo dance with classical dance style.

Dancers hold double cups with porcelain bowls on their heads. Accompanied by music, according to the rhythm of hitting cups, their arms are constantly stretching and bending, and their bodies move forward or backward, which is intended to show the dignified and demure personality of Mongolian women. The dance uses such dance words as "soft hands", "shaking shoulders" and "broken steps" which are rich in Mongolian dance style, showing the elegant and implicit style of bowl dance.

The popular bowl dance in Ordos is simple in form and has no strict rules.

Second, chopsticks dance-cheerful and heroic

Chopsticks dance is famous for its shoulder movements and is generally performed by men.

Dancers hold chopsticks in their right hand, hitting hands, legs, shoulders, feet and other parts from time to time, and sometimes hitting the ground (or table). With the flip of the wrist, sometimes the shoulders are provoked lively, sometimes the legs jump flexibly, sometimes turn left and lean forward, and sometimes turn right and lean forward.

Its shoulder movements are rhythmic and have a special charm, which combines pleasure, elegance and agility.

Although the action is simple, it pleases the audience with skill, so it has a certain performance nature.

The chopsticks dance popular in Erdos includes both men's solo and men's and women's group dances.

In the form of performance, from holding chopsticks with one hand to holding chopsticks with two hands, the dance vocabulary of shoulders, waist and legs is also richer. Therefore, the dance is cheerful, bright and novel, which vividly shows the Mongolian national character of enthusiasm, cheerfulness, boldness and heroism.

Third, the circle dance-cheerful and enthusiastic

Dance is popular among Mongolians. It consists of several movements, such as swinging feet alternately, jumping with rough running, jumping with bright and chic lower body or running sideways. The upper body movements include learning from each other, holding hands behind people's backs, and people holding hands and dancing in a circle, so people usually call it Breija's characteristic folk dance circle dance. Adagio is lyrical and soft, Allegro is cheerful and agile, and has strong jumping ability.

Simple folk customs, simple colors and passionate feelings.
