The flying apsaras of China are the same as those of India. Traditional Chinese dance was heavily influenced by Indian dance. The whole Chinese culture was shaped by Indian philosophy, art, literature, and science. India exists without China, but there’s no China without India.

Many think that the tumbling techniques seen in Shen Yun’s performances come from acrobatics or gymnastics. But they all come from classical Chinese dance and have influenced other art forms in the ensuing thousands of years.

The 18 hands of Nataraja symbolically give rise to 81 mudras through various permutations and combinations used in Bharatanatyam. Bharatanatyam is one of the oldest and most graceful classical dance forms of India. According to tradition, this sacred art form was codified and introduced by Rishi Bharata through the Natya Shastra.

Bharatnatyam, one of the oldest dance forms in the world. During the British colonization in India, Britishers banned this classical dance claiming it promotes vulgarity. But dancers at that time secretly kept Bharatnatyam alive in temples and passed down to present India.

These Chinese women are performing as Vedic apsaras from the Kizil Cave of the Musicians, whose art shows Gandhara and Mathura influences. Their poses and mudras follow classical Indian dance. The Chinese recognize the Indian influence; only non-Chinese and Pakistanis deny it.

🇦🇲 #Armenian ancient #dances date back thousands of years and have rich cultural and historical significance in #Armenia🇦🇲. Plutarch, a #Greek🇬🇷 philosopher, was the first to speak about the Armenian dances and traditions . In the 1st century BC, Armenians built an amphitheater and held different dance performances. Each region and province of Armenia has unique dances and costumes that have been part of the culture for generations. A key element of Armenian national dances is the traditional clothing known as taraz, which not only had a role in everyday life but also played a significant part in the national dances. - Certain types of dances have the power to transmit emotions and inspire with their values : such as the military dance known as Yarkhushta, which is considered one of the most unique and remarkable national military dances. Originating from ancient times, this folk dance has been documented in the writings of early medieval scholars like Movses Khorenatsi, Faustus of Byzantium, and Grigor Magistro. Each region in Armenia has its variation of Kochari dance. In 2017, Armenian Kochari was included to the UNESCO List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Karno Kochari - Very similar to Kochari, originated in region of Karin. The “Berd” dance originates from the ancient Armenian province of Vaspurakan of the ancient Kingdom of Armenia. Lorke is a traditional Armenian folk song-dance that is often performed during significant events as well as during the Vardavar festival. Harsnapar comes from the Armenian hars which means bride, and par which translates to dance. In this joyous celebration, the bride takes center stage, twirling solo or perhaps joined by her bridesmaids and other enthusiastic participants. Armenian dance is an essential part of the country's cultural unique heritage and is passed down through generations, preserving the rich history and traditions of the Armenian people.
