      Frequently asked questions

      What are Chinese dancers called?

      There is no one specific name for Chinese dancers, and the general term used is either "Chinese dancers" or "dancers from China." There are so many different styles and traditions of dance in China, so the dancers who specialize in these styles will have more specific names or titles. For example, performers of classical Chinese dance may be called classical Chinese dancers, and people who dance a particular style of folk dance might be called Chinese folk dancers or they might have a more specific name, related to the dance style itself.

      Who performs the Chinese lion dance?

      The Chinese lion dance is usually performed by a pair of two dancers, often during the Chinese New Year celebrations in small and major cities across China. They wear a lion costume, which is made of colourful fabric and decorated with intricate designs, usually involving a lot of red and gold. One of the dancers controls the lion's head and front legs, and the other controls the rear legs and tail. The dancers move the lion in a series of lively movements, accompanied by the beat of drums, cymbals, and gongs.

      The dance is supposed to bring good fortune and luck with it and is most famously performed at Chinese New Year, to start the new year off with good luck. It's not just a new year dance though, and can also be danced at other festive occasions like weddings and business openings.

      What are some famous Chinese dances?

      China is a huge country with a rich cultural heritage and a diverse range of dance styles. Many popular traditional dances even go back thousands of years. Here are a few famous Chinese dances that you might have heard of:

      • Classical Chinese dance
      • Dragon Chinese dance
      • Chinese Lion dance
      • Chinese Ribbon dance
      • Fan dance
      • Chinese shuffle dance

      These few dances just skim the surface of the huge number of amazing and beautiful dances that you will find in China today.

      What is the Chinese dragon dance?

      The Chinese dragon dance is very similar to the lion dance in that it is performed with a dramatic dragon costume or puppet and is supposed to bring good luck, especially during Chinese New Year. Dragon dancers differ from lion dancers in that they are puppeteers as well as dancers. The dragon is usually held on poles above the heads of the dancers, and a larger team of dancers is required to move the puppet, as compared with the lion dancers, where you only usually have two performers.

      The length of the dragons' bodies is very symbolic. The longer the body the wealthier the client, as a longer body requires more materials to make it and more dancers to carry it. This means longer dragons are more lucky and prosperous than short ones.
