✨ Bridging Body and Culture: Chinese Dance for Young Explorers✨

When a child learns to dance, they are not just learning how to move—they're learning how to feel, express, and connect. At Dadi, our Chinese Dance program isn’t simply about teaching routines. It’s about inviting young minds into the colorful, intricate world of Chinese culture through movement.

Rooted in centuries-old traditions, the program introduces students to various styles—from the flowing elegance of Han classical dance to the vibrant energy of Tibetan folk dance and Dai peacock dance.  Each step is a thread in the rich tapestry of China’s heritage, and each class becomes a stage for students to explore stories that have shaped generations.

But this isn’t just a cultural lesson—it’s a personal journey. Through guided movement, music, and storytelling, students develop body awareness, confidence, and creativity. Our curriculum emphasizes teamwork and expression, using dance formations that mirror harmony, group spirit, and joyful celebration.

What sets our program apart is our people. Instructors Sarah Lao and Ivy Lin bring not only professional accolades in dance and drama but also years of experience connecting with students across international settings. With a background in both education and performance, they ensure each class is welcoming, inclusive, and inspiring.

By combining traditional artistry with modern pedagogy, we help students understand that dance is more than performance—it’s a way of thinking, communicating, and belonging. Through every rhythm, leap, and gesture, we honor the past while inspiring future global citizens.

Join us, and let your child discover the art of moving with meaning.

✨以舞蹈連結身體與文化 ✨

當孩子學習舞蹈時，他們所掌握的不僅是動作的技巧，更是在學習如何感受、表達與連結。在大地教育中心，我們的中國舞課程不僅著重於動作訓練，更旨在透過身體語言，引領學生走進色彩繽紛、內涵深遠的中國文化世界。

本課程紮根於千百年來流傳的舞蹈傳統，內容涵蓋多元舞蹈風格——從漢族古典舞的柔美婀娜，到藏族民族舞的奔放熱情，以至傣族孔雀舞的靈動細膩。每一個舞步，都是中華文化長河中的一縷絲線；每一堂課，都是讓學生走進歷史故事、認識民族精神的舞台。

然而，這不僅是一場文化的體驗，更是一段個人成長的歷程。透過有系統的動作引導、音樂節奏及故事敘述，學生將逐步建立身體意識、自信心與創造力。課程設計強調團隊合作與情感表達，編舞形式象徵和諧與凝聚，體現歡樂共享的精神。

我們課程的最大特色，來自我們卓越的教學團隊。資深導師勞燕老師（Sarah Lao）與林鈺璐老師（Ivy Lin），不僅於舞蹈及戲劇領域屢獲殊榮，亦擁有多年於國際教育環境中與學生互動的豐富經驗。他們兼具藝術專業與教學熱誠，確保每一堂課既具啟發性，又充滿關懷與包容。

透過將傳統藝術與現代教育理念融合，我們引導學生理解舞蹈的本質不止於表演，它更是一種思考方式、一種溝通語言，以及一種歸屬感的延伸。在每一次律動、跳躍與手勢之中，學生不僅向歷史致敬，更為成為具有文化素養的世界公民奠定基礎。

誠邀您加入我們的行列，讓孩子在舞蹈中發掘意義，感受文化，並啟動屬於自己的人文旅程。
