Hang Hau Unicorn Dance Training Workshop

Secondary and tertiary students are welcome

As an educational institution in Sai Kung District, and also a member of Hang Hau. South China Research Center and Joint Association of Traditional Hakka Unicorn in Sai Kung and Hang Hau, Hong Kong are planning to organize the Hakka unicorn dance workshop in the University to foster understanding and participation.

Hang Hau Unicorn Dance Training Workshop

The traditional Hakka Unicorn Dance has been practised for more than 200 years. The Hakka people believe the Chinese unicorn, the qilin, is an auspicious animal that can ward off evil and bring good luck. So, on all celebratory occasions such as Chinese New Year, weddings, birthday parties, the rehabilitation of an ancestral hall, moving into a new home, welcoming guests, the jiao festivals and birthdays of deities, there would invariably be a unicorn dance. Since the Hakka people had brought it to Hong Kong and fused it with local traditional music and martial arts, the unicorn dance has developed its own styles and sequence of movements. Hang Hau Hakka unicorn dance was inscribed onto the fourth national list of ICH in 2014.

大澳田野學園

大澳位於香港的西端,面向伶仃洋,處於珠江出口。珠江口鹹淡水匯流,曾是一個漁產豐富的漁場,這讓大澳成為香港的一個主要漁港。在船隻以風帆推動的年代,大澳更是珠江口的船運樞紐。大澳曾經是一個集漁業、鹽業、商業及農業活動的海邊市鎮。現今仍保留了獨特的社區文化及歷史文物古蹟。

「大澳田野學園」計劃的目的,正是藉著大澳豐富的歷史文物,進行實地學習活動,鼓勵參加者接觸社會,親身瞭解地方歷史、社會與文化。
