Programme Synopsis There are misconceptions that "Chinese Dance" is all about fans, ribbons, and handkerchiefs. In fact, "Chinese dance" is an umbrella term used for dances of Chinese origin and Chinese culture. Chinese dance can be generally classified into two major types: Classical dance and Ethnic Folk dance. Chinese Dance workshop is an enhanced programme that deepens students' understanding and imparts basic skills through fun and engaging activities. Students will be exposed to the different styles of Chinese dance and learn about the lively music and movement used. This workshop aims to evoke interest and understanding of Chinese dance through engaging activities such as role-playing and sing-along. The instructor will also guide students to create movements as self-exploration and build their confidence.
