History

Chinese dancing was developed over five thousand years ago, which is closely connected with the common people also known as folk dancing. This folk dancing is celebrated with colourful costumes, paintings, scenery, and music. In the Tang Dynasty (A.D. 618-907), poetry, music and dance thrived. Over the years, dances were influenced by dances of other countries. Dancing was also an important part of Chinese religion and philosophy.
