A Brief Discussion on the Application of Fans in Chinese Classical Dance

Fan is one of the commonly used props in Chinese classical dance. The coordination and cooperation of technical techniques such as opening, closing, shaking, and rotating fans with movements not only enriches the vocabulary of movements, but also extends arm movements and expands the expressive tension of movements. The use of fans in works can enhance the shaping of character images, have a positive effect on expressing emotions, and improve the expressive power of works. The perfect combination of fan culture and Chinese classical dance highlights the cultural connotation of dance and makes it one of the cultural symbols of Chinese classical dance.
