Residents and Guests of Delmanor Prince Edward celebrated
Chinese New Year by watching a
traditional Chinese fan dance, a tradition that has been a part of China's heritage for
over two thousand years! Considered to be an ancient form of folk dance, the Chinese Fan Dance is used to help pass down stories and traditions of Chinese culture to future generations.
The Chinese
Fan Dancers at Delmanor Prince Edward entertained residents and guests by using
fans as props and wearing complimenting brightly-colored costumes for an
eye-catching spectacle of movement & artistic expression.
Most frequently paired with the Chinese New Year is the Dragon
Dance. Chinese Dragons are a symbol of China as they are believed to bring
good luck to people. The longer the dragon is in the dance, the more luck it is believed that it will
bring to the community. The Residents of Delmanor Prince Edward enjoyed the flowing, majestic movements of the dragon dance. The Chinese dragon dance, especially during New Year celebrations, is a symbol of the historical role that dragons have played demonstrating their power and dignity within Chinese culture.
