Research on Inheritance and Innovation of Hani Dance in Yunnan

Abstract

This paper focuses on the Hani ethnic dance of Yunnan, delving into its current state, challenges, and development paths. Through
literature review and field research, it systematically explores the cultural significance, artistic features, and the vital role of Hani dance in
the preservation of ethnic culture. The study reveals that Hani dance faces significant challenges during modernization, including a loss of
practitioners, limited dissemination channels, and insufficient innovation and integration. To address these issues, the paper proposes a threepronged development model: living inheritance-innovative expression-industrial integration. By enhancing talent development, innovating
communication methods, and promoting the integration of culture and tourism, the aim is to achieve innovation and sustainable development
in the inheritance of Hani dance, providing theoretical insights and practical guidance for the sustainable development of ethnic minority
dance cultures.
