Dance Masterclass: Contemporary Chinese Dance
- 4 May 2024 (Saturday) | 2 pm

The movement language of contemporary Chinese dance represents a modern reinterpretation of traditional dance routines. It emphasises creativity and expression, often blending elements of modern dance. Instead of merely depicting traditional dance scenes, contemporary Chinese dance delves deeper into the emotions and stories that reflect the lives of contemporary people. This approach aims to break away from convention and integrate innovative elements while staying true to the essence of Chinese dance.

He was an Ex-professional dancer in Taiwan Cloud Gate Dance Theatre, Nai-Ni Chen Dance Company and GGD Dance Company in New York, USA.
