brief introduction

Haiyang area of Shandong Jiaodong Peninsula is famous for its folk yangko. Haiyang yangko has its own system, which is one of the four major yangko schools in the north. The reason why it has such a prominent position is that it has a long history, a strong lineup and a wide variety. Haiyang Yangko rose as early as the Ming and Qing Dynasties. After local folk artists combined folk myths and legends with martial arts and dance movements, it gradually evolved into today's "Yangko" formation. Every year from the first day of the first month to the fifteenth day of the first month, the Yangko team walks around the village, worships the new countryside, and makes a big scene. At the same time, prestigious people in the village can also "point". In addition to posing in various dance postures, Haiyang Yangko can also dance while singing, with lead singers and disguises, which is very lively. Therefore, people who "order yangko" can not only order dance formation, but also order singing skills. Humorous folk dance dramas can also bring you to a fairy tale world.

When entering the village in previous years, three shots were fired as a gift, and the village would lead the villagers to greet them with percussion. The yangko team's "Doctor Le" conducted the band, and the actors danced enthusiastically from slow to fast, performing the ceremony of "three out and three in". Every time, they took a step forward, held their umbrellas with their fists, bowed their heads, and then went into the village to "pull the field." After "singing" and "dot matrix", "Dr. Le" gave a thank-you speech and led the team to "two dragons spit".
