This series traces the historical and geographical roots of the dance traditions in China and looks into what inspires people to create dance. It also explores how contemporary artists breathe new life into dance traditions and discusses the distinguishing features and techniques of each dance form.

More than a dozen women, wearing flowing yellow pants and sparkling tops, perform in three coordinated columns on a golden stage in front of a flame-edged arched backdrop. The women on the left perch bend to the left with their arms over their heads, while the women on the right do the same in the other direction, and the women in the middle sit up with their arms up at different angles.

Dark stage with dancers dressed in lilac and blue garments in a circular formation, their long blue and lilac sleeves billowing high up in the air.

Four women stand in a circle looking down to the ground at us. The women wear sloping gold helmet-crowns and festive dresses layered with shiny pink, gold, and green triangle shapes, green bodices, and gold collars.

Line of women wearing white collared shirts underneath black dresses that are ornately adorned with bright neon threads, streamers, pompoms, and beads, and wearing hats decorated with silver and neon baubles and feathers.

People wearing traditional garments that feature striped, colorful aprons, wide decorative belts, long billowing sleeves, and pointed headpieces, parade in a circle on the grass below a blue sky.

Woman wearing a long-sleeved red dress with a full skirt spreads her arms wide with her fingers pointed back toward her, as she dances on a vast empty plain underneath a cloudy blue sky.

Dancer wearing a crisp green outfit waves a wide pink fan in front of her body while another dancer out-of-frame does something similar.
