Research On Dai Ailian's Dance Education Idea

As the founder and pioneer of Chinese dance,Dai Ailian has devoted her life to the creation,performance and teaching of dance.With the rapid development of education and the deepening of education reform,China’s dance plays an increasingly important role in the development of education.On the development path of new Chinese dance,as a returned dancer,Dai Ailian has opened many "firsts" in Chinese dance’s dance education.This contains her patriotic gene and political position rooted in China,which enables her to solve the mystery of the development of Chinese dance even as she grows up in the soil of western culture,that is,Chinese dance should not be the "Chinese application" of dance,but the fundamental solution to the problem of Chinese dance or the study of the fundamental problem of Chinese dance.The study of Dai Ailian’s dance education ideology first sorts out the British genes of Dai Ailian’s education ideology through literature research,exploring Dai Ailian’s dance learning experience during her time in England,as well as her self identification and emotional identification with Chinese identity and culture.Secondly,through literature research and interview research,this paper discusses the practical activities of Dai Ailian’s education and teaching after her return to China,focusing on the teaching practice of Laban dance scores,the excavation and organization of Chinese ethnic and folk dances,and the cultural exchange and integration of educational resources in Chinese ballet.Finally,returning to the perspective of education,we will discuss the factors that shaped Dai Ailian’s education,as well as her educational concepts,teaching concepts,and ideological propositions as an educator.From Dai Ailian’s various dance education behaviors and practices,it can be seen that a strong sense of patriotism and Eastern aesthetics emerge from her works and teaching.Therefore,the connotation of Dai Ailian’s dance education thought is not reflected in her writings.Her education thought has long been integrated into the starting point of Chinese dance career and the creative aesthetic system based on cultural selfconfidence.In general,Dai Ailian’s educational experience across countries,races and regions,educational behaviors and teaching practice activities that affect individual development outline the overall appearance of Dai Ailian’s educational thought and the basic direction of the development of Chinese dance education.
