Features: Chinese martial arts and traditional Chinese dance are both deeply nourished by Chinese culture. During their formation and development, they have intertwined and merged, with elements of one present in the other. Through continuous integration and separation, the "form" and "intention" of both martial arts and dance have been mutually blended. This textbook starts from numerous theories and explores the trajectories of mutual complementarity and absorption through the analysis and comparison of various aspects of martial arts and dance. The target audience for this textbook is students majoring in dance education and performance.
