艺术总监的话
Message from Artistic Director
大家好!
新典现代舞蹈团成立于1991年,2011年开始专业运作,并将于9月底正式结束。舞团精致可随时更变为表演场所的舞蹈课室和办公室,将归还给月眠艺术中心的艺术之家,专业运作结束,舞团依然存在,将会以另一种步伐重新出发。
我无所畏惧地迎接未来,改变就会有新想法, 并能为自己和新一批同伴进入一个全新轨道的机会。放下并不代表遗忘,更不意味失去。我们可能会带着批判和遗憾的眼光看待过去,但更重要的是这一路走来所建立的力量和友谊。其实这不是结束,而是一个新的开始。
朋友们,感谢你们的陪伴与支持!舞团能够这样一路颠簸走来,我感到非常庆幸,欣幸这一切的相遇相知!人生终会有落幕的时候,但我生命中的舞蹈永不谢幕。

Hello everyone!
Founded in 1991 as a non-profit professional contemporary dance company, Frontier Danceland became full-fledged in 2011. The company has officially transitioned out of full-time operations by the end of September 2023. The current dance studio and office space at Goodman Arts Centre will be returned to Arts House Limited, and Frontier Danceland will continue to operate on a smaller scale moving forward.
Change is the catalyst for new possibilities and opportunities, and I am hopeful for what lies ahead in the future. While letting go of the past, let us not forget to celebrate the friendships forged on this journey. This is not a farewell, but a promise of new beginnings.
Dear friends, thank you for being part of this chapter with Frontier Danceland, and for the continued support you’ve given the company all these years. In this season of change – onward to the next dance of my life.

Dancing on the Frontier – An Introduction to Contemporary Dance
seeks to share exposure about the myriad facets of movement that stand at the core of contemporary dance.
Through performance excerpts and insightful sharing about the creation process, the programme draws connections and relevance to daily living, thereby facilitating the students’ fundamental understanding of contemporary dance and encouraging the development of an appreciation for the art form.
Frontier Danceland strongly believes in the importance of the arts, as well as the mental, social and emotional aspects of dance in contributing to a wholesome experience.
