I. The Inheritance of Chinese Folk Dance Culture

Folk dance is national and traditional, and there is often such a point of view when it comes to the tradition of folk dance. As if only the folk inherited "original" dance is folk dance, otherwise it is not folk dance but creative dance. Those who hold this view emphasize the "original flavor". From the aesthetic theory, also one-sided emphasis on adherence to tradition, "folk dance has gone too far," such a voice is endless, thus affecting the creative practice of folk dance to varying degrees, but also to make China's performing folk dance stagnation. What is tradition? Tradition does not end on a certain date in a certain month in a certain year, but is constantly developing and enriching. Today the tide of climate, tomorrow into the stream of tradition. Folk dance from life on the stage, to become a performing art of dance, it must be processed to improve the so-called "original flavor" one-sided emphasis will only hinder the improvement of folk dance techniques and aesthetic development. Of course, we should also prevent arbitrariness, because since it is a folk dance, there should be a specific ethnicity, region, style. The large-scale original song and dance collection "reflection of Yunnan" is an original vernacular song and dance essence and folk dance classics integrated reconstruction, reproducing the rich ethnic flavor of Yunnan. There is both the beauty of tradition and the power of modern stage new works. It should be known that folk dance is a living fossil that cannot be solidified in the development of national culture. The "original" folk dance belongs to the category of indigenous culture, our nation can not always stay in the world to show the level of indigenous culture, but need to keep abreast of the times, with the development of folk dance. The inheritance process of folk dance develops with the times, and we should treat the art of folk dance with the basic attitude of cautious learning, inheritance and based on creative development, preserving the fundamental tradition of folk in the process of inheritance, while the new content is constantly increasing all the time, so as to make the Chinese folk dance culture constantly enriched and improved.

2. Characteristics of the Development of Chinese Folk Dance Culture

1. The Inheritance, Mass and Entertainment of the Development of Folk Dance Culture

Dance existed as a kind of body language in the ancient times. With the development of history, folk dance is not only limited to witchcraft activities and the expression of reverence for God. But in the connotation, folk dance as a means of transmission of cultural accumulation, its own level has made an essential leap. Therefore, the inheritance of folk dance has become one of the basic characteristics of Chinese folk dance development. Folk dance completes the process of inheriting culture in a kind of group self-aesthetics. It is from the initial individual expression of feelings, interpreted into the results of the collective creation of the masses, and from the initial eulogy of labor in the field to become a kind of self-entertainment, and in the entertainment to accept the traditional culture and the cultivation of national spirit, so the mass and entertainment is bound to constitute the development of the Chinese folk dance another basic feature. The development of Chinese folk dance culture is also under the influence of the characteristics of the times, playing the diversified roles of different stages, different regions and different objects of expression, therefore, the development of Chinese folk dance culture is rooted in the nation and flourishes in the times.

2. The emotional color of the development of Chinese folk dance culture

The emotional color of the development of Chinese folk dance culture is the sublimation from emotional to rational understanding. With the development and progress of the society, the dance transitioned to the direction of self-entertainment and entertaining people, and penetrated into all fields of people's lives in the continuous development and circulation, and was preserved for a long time. Primitive people realized the importance of dance for their lives through their labor life, from the actual physical feelings to the emotional input of the spiritual world, which is the sublimation of sensual understanding to rational understanding. The emotional colorfulness of the development of Chinese folk dance culture is manifested in the figurative way of expressing feelings. Folk dance originates from the folk, reflects the real life, and emphasizes the emotional color of image. Folk dance of all nationalities is a self-indulgent activity, which is closely connected with the labor life, religious rituals, festivals and other customs of the people, and is an important part of life. This is the main reason why folk dance has been flowing and developing for thousands of years. Chinese folk dance is the embodiment of the emotional colors of the people. All its inner spiritual temperament, formal structure and stylistic features are determined and endowed by the spirit, beliefs and psychological aesthetic consciousness of the nation. It is not only the need of aesthetics, but also people's expectation of the future and spiritual support, which is the crystallization of national wisdom. The spirit of the nation and the spirit of the times give Chinese folk dance a new vitality and a new image.

3. Pluralism in the development of Chinese folk dance culture

Today's Chinese folk dance culture is facing the impact of overseas art and market economy. It has developed, mutated and broadened, forming many marginalized markets. The establishment of the Shenzhen Folk Village has brought folk dance to the tourism industry, and folk dance has become a way for people to travel and live. The wind of the nightclubs to folk dance to the cabaret, to provide a place for people to find relief; the prevalence of street rice-planting songs so that folk dance has become a way to strengthen the body of a movement, the current "square new rice-planting songs" red all over the urban and rural areas of the streets and lanes.

In all kinds of national dance competitions, professional dancers use a lot of folk dance material for adaptation, creation, expression of artistic thoughts and feelings and concepts of the structure of the new dance works of the main body has got rid of the folk and folklore of the simplicity of the rise of the spirit of the nation and the pursuit of the concept of grasping. That self-indulgence and performativeness of the parallel decided folk dance has a broader space, so that folk dance becomes a stage art that can move the audience. The formation of the "academy" model, which represents a certain class and a certain concept, is the contemporary direction of Chinese folk dance culture from "vulgar" to "elegant". It represents a process of sublimation of Chinese folk dance culture, i.e. folk - folk - national - model. It marks the gradual improvement of Chinese folk dance culture in the sense of completeness and aesthetics, and finally goes to the world with the traditional advantages and personality of the nation.

Three, the development direction of Chinese folk dance culture

Folk dance culture has been passed down from generation to generation, with the development of social, economic and cultural enrichment and perfection, the motherland's wealth and strength of the cultural development of all ethnic groups to create unlimited possibilities, and provide a material and economic basis, thus opening up a broad road of artistic creation, the essence of folk dance has been fully explored and developed. The essence of folk dance has been fully explored and developed. The development direction of folk dance culture has formed a clear goal: 1. The direction of popular culture. Regardless of whether it is self-entertainment or performance, the main feature is popularity, and special attention is paid to self-entertainment dances, which is what Mr. Dai Ailian advocates as "folk dances for everyone". This direction is based on the already formed folk dances with certain themes and fixed forms and traditions.2. Elite culture direction. Mainly performing dances, mainly characterized by elegance, emphasizing skills, drawing nutrition from folk dances, discovering national spirit and refining movement elements, which is represented by the "academy" folk dances of the Department of Chinese Folk Dance of the Beijing Dance Academy. This direction is based on the ideas and themes that exist in folk songs and epics, and new dance works that express the artistic thoughts, feelings and concepts of dancers created in modern images.

Four, the development of Chinese folk dance creative principles

1. The traditional "original" folk dance should be interpreted creatively. That is, it should be processed and technically improved to make it more poetic, technical and musical, but also more dance, rather than copying, mechanical reproduction or simple imitation. A real choreographer should not be a photographer but an artist. He should y reveal the content and connotation of the folk dance of that nation and make its form fully developed, while at the same time improving it in terms of technique. For example, the folk songs only after the musician's finishing, the singer's singing, will have more beautiful than the "original" folk songs, vocal color, will be more than the "original" folk songs have more emotional color and artistic expression, which is to process, improve and emphasize the skills of the This is the role of processing, improving and emphasizing skills. What we see today, "Reflections of Yunnan" is the dancer Yang Liping, out of love for dance and innate national qualities, tirelessly spent more than a year in Yunnan, selected a typical representative of the music and dance elements of Yunnan, spent 15 months of careful rehearsal, with a unique perspective and imagination to construct a large-scale original form of such a traditional beauty, but also the main modern force of the collection of songs and dances. The show is a collection of songs and dances.

2. Create a new type of dance based on traditional folk art forms and the spirit of national tradition. Folk dance is a reflection of various phenomena in social life, therefore, the choreographer can not only study the dance, but also to the folk dance tradition based on a profound study of the people's life and culture, so that we can figure out the process of the creation of a particular dance, in which the ideology of the feelings, the influence of the form and style of life and production methods, and so on, and then create a new type of folk dance on the stage with a rich imagination but with the image, feelings and styles of original Then, with rich imagination, we can create a new type of folk dance on the stage with the image, feelings and style of the original folk dance. Just as "Images of Yunnan" lets us see the living prototypes that express the folk dress of all ethnic groups in Yunnan, show the drum style and rhythm brought by 62 drums, as well as 120 masks with Yunnan's ethnic characteristics ...... all of which come directly from the local area of Yunnan, keeping its original style. And the interpretation of the "reflection of Yunnan" presents the original essence, classic reconstruction, modern elements of the dance language, is the passion of the nation, the passion of life, is from the depths of the heart full of passion. The imaginative lyrics harmonize with the abstract dance, and with the romantic color of the song and dance as a whole. There are countless valuable national cultural resources in our native land, what is missing is just digging, it is not easy to find a match in the original and artistic processing, and the large-scale original song and dance "Reflections of Yunnan" is a new type of dance created on the basis of the traditional folk art forms and the spirit of national traditions, which opens up a whole new field of creativity for the Chinese stage art.

3. The image of traditional folk dance is embodied by modern methods. For example, "Reflections of Yunnan" is primitive and modern. Its content is original, is the ordinary life of the villagers, its actors are native, 70% of the dancers from the villages in Yunnan, their blood flowing in the original dance gene. Its props are real, such as bull's head, mani stone, and scripture roller, etc. What impresses people is precisely its primitive and real. The technique of "Reflections of Yunnan" is modern, and the fashionable technique makes the ancient things glitter and shine, and it is easier to enter the hearts of modern people. In folklore, dance is everywhere; in folklore, dance is simple. Simple dance with modern techniques, giving people the more concise and hazy, the more room for imagination, the connotation of the dance image is fuller. The modern approach can be expressed in the music of the dance, such as "Reflections of Yunnan". Yunnan native music as the main theme together with the song and dance left a deep impression; processed primitive music, including all the percussion and dance at the same time to enrich the scene; modern creative music, as the dance accompaniment and the atmosphere of the creation of a variety of different orchestrations, timbres, harmonies, through the modern arrangement to create a very primitive feeling, is a continuation of the previous, but also the modern play, both national and Modern, so we were shocked, impressed, moved, we feel in the music, song, dance, light, shadow in the strong charm of the new era, the image of this folk dance embodies not only the value of the art of dance, but a cultural value.

Fifth, the popularization of aesthetic education of Chinese folk dance culture

1. The promotion of folk dance in aesthetic education is more important for the development of folk dance itself. Nowadays, one of the most important goals of the construction of social spiritual civilization is to improve the cultural quality of all people, and aesthetic education is one of the best ways to improve the cultural quality of all people. Feedback from continuous social practice and teaching practice makes us realize that folk dance is an easy art form to be promoted in aesthetic education, and the many favorable factors in the historical development of Chinese folk dance make it an indispensable content for modern aesthetic education in China. At the same time, the promotion of folk dance in aesthetic education is more important for the development of folk dance itself. Its significant effects are as follows: Firstly, it allows folk dance to return to the folk, draws new life force, and makes people pay attention to folk dance again. Folk dance itself is invented, developed and inherited by the majority of working people, only let the folk dance back to the folk of this mother body, it is possible to find the source of life in its development. Secondly, let the folk dance have a wider mass base. This mass can be understood as the cultivation of an aesthetic group, i.e., a broad audience capable of appreciating dance. After the aesthetic education of most people although it is impossible to engage in folk dance professional work, but they at least in varying degrees to understand the folk dance, can understand the folk dance, know where the beauty of the folk dance, and when these people go to all levels of society will be for the folk dance to weave a huge aesthetic network, thus driving the aesthetic trend of the whole society.

2. The importance of the role of Chinese folk dance culture in aesthetic education. With people's dissatisfaction with exam-oriented education and the exploration of modern education, most parents want their children to learn a little bit of art, improve their cultivation and enhance their creativity and imagination in addition to their academic success, and the education of Chinese folk dance culture has become one of the means of cultivating the aesthetic interest in primary and secondary schools. Through the aesthetic education of Chinese folk dance culture, students will love beauty more and understand the beauty of folk dance. Through the study of various folk dances, the students' minds are submerged, cultivating their sentiments, cultivating noble qualities and a keen sense of beauty, thus purifying their minds and improving their personal cultivation and quality.

Popularizing Chinese folk dance culture takes aesthetic education as the highest principle, the form is not important, and the learning of technical movements is not the most important, the key is to let the students feel the beauty in the process of learning, so that the students can learn how to appreciate the beauty of the dance, experience the beauty of the dance, and comprehend the essence of folk dance. Popularization of Chinese folk dance culture has a very important role in the development of students' good posture, which can not only make students physically coordinated, but also promote the development of body and mind **** with the development of qi and rhyme, with the spirit of the form, the spirit of the form and exuberance. Popularization of Chinese folk dance culture can profoundly affect students in two temperament: one is the national temperament. Let the students in learning a specific folk dance at the same time, accept the cultural inculcation of that nation. For example, to learn the Mongolian dance, let students focus on experiencing the heroic spirit; to learn the Korean dance, to experience the implicit charm; to learn the Viennese dance, to experience the optimistic and humorous attitude, when the students can really experience the national style of the dance, it will be easier for them to learn this kind of dance. Second, their own temperament. In the learning process, students are guided to form a correct aesthetic view and strengthen their confidence in performing. Standing with a standing posture, sitting with a sitting posture, forming a natural beauty of the body and combining it with a beauty of the mind to make one's temperament more elegant, more energetic and charming. Popularization of Chinese folk dance culture can create a relaxed, elegant and free space in the relatively boring and dull environment of ordinary primary and secondary schools, so that adolescent children have a legitimate place and way to express and vent their emotions.

Increasingly improved people's lives, the prosperity of the national culture makes the folk dance a new look, Chinese folk dance culture will go through multiple washing, multiple introduction, multiple abandonment, and ultimately to the loose, compatible, natural, honest national traditional strengths and personality to the world.
