The Yangko dance is a traditional folk dance of the Han Chinese. It
originated from China and happens to be a popular part of their culture.
It involves swaying of the body to certain rhythms. The waist and the
hip are used to drive feet in order to sync with the music. The dance
has a one thousand year history in China and is usually performed in the
Lantern Festival. You can see a lot of videos on YouTube concerning the
dance. Yangko has changed since its inception and the one that we see
now happens to come from the late 1940s.
