Abstract

Chinese classical dance uses modern aesthetics and techniques to perpetuate and reinvent traditional culture. In artistic form, Chinese classical dance combines various standard cultural components. At present, the integration of Chinese classical dance and new media technologies in communication has given Chinese classical dance an essential role in promoting public society. This review describes the contribution of traditional Chinese dance to preserving and reinvention of Chinese culture and its impact on social practices. It examines the historical development of Chinese classical dance, including the use of various dance forms as pedagogical tools in the early stages of its development and the multiple adaptations made to meet the challenges during its development. When Chinese classical dance uses video technology to reach public, its impact on modern society goes beyond merely promoting traditional culture. From the perspective of participatory video (PV), the positive effects of video-based Chinese classical dance on public social participation are undeniable.
