To examine how contemporary choreographic reinterpretation interacts with traditional Central Asian folk dance preservation and cultural continuity.
Synthesized interdisciplinary scholarship across dance studies, performance theory, and intangible cultural heritage research.
Conducted a practice-based case study analysis of the choreographic work 'Saks in Movement' to evaluate how nomadic cultural principles translate into modern performance.
Identified that contemporary choreographic innovation and folk preservation operate complementarily rather than oppositionally.
Demonstrated that translating symbolic gestures and nomadic movement principles into modern choreography extends the cultural vitality of traditional knowledge without requiring strict historical replication.
