Chinese dance education and culture path in the preservation and transmission of cultural heritage to the younger generation

Chinese dance is part of the world cultural heritage. This study aims to consider the opinion of respondents who have not studied Chinese dance directly, and thus obtain new data on the attitude to Chinese dance culture among the young generation of students of higher educational institutions. A total of 500 fourth-year students participated in the survey. The issue of the intercultural perspective of dance education in China is solved through cultural cooperation between Chinese universities through lectures on Chinese culture, thematic events and the arrangement of dance classes. Studying the introduction of Chinese dance to young up-to-date students should contribute to the formation of tolerance of other cultures, aesthetic education, and humanization of interpersonal relations, the development of mutual understanding between peoples. Despite the modern realities of modernization and acceleration of cultural development, Chinese traditional dance contributes to the preservation of past traditions and cultural identity, as well as strengthening social cohesion. According to the results obtained, 43\% of students are interested in other cultures. In addition, 7\% of respondents believe that Chinese dance is boring while 93\% treat it positively considering it to be bright and colorful.
