Southern Stars’ Japanese Yosakoi Soran dance group 南極星日本舞太鼓
Southern Stars’ is a Japanese Yosakoi Soran dance group and as a volunteer organization. They have been introducing Japanese culture through this exciting performing art in Auckland, New Zealand since April 2003. They love Yosakoi Soran dance because of the coexistence of traditional and modern essence in the performance. It’s exciting to watch and fun to dance! Southern Stars’ mission is to get everyone join us and dance together!! Yosakoi Soran dance has a strong influence from the traditional Yosakoi Festival in Kochi Prefecture and the traditional Hokkaido fishermen’s song called ‘Soran Bushi’. Naruko (wooden clappers) in dancers’ hands are significant from the Yosakoi Festival. Chanting phrase ‘soran, soran…’ and rowing move are significant from Soran Bushi. Yosakoi Soran dance was invented by an university student from Hokkaido when he created a new dance festival called ‘Yosakoi Soran Festival’ back in 1992.
To celebrate and continue promoting this wonderful “Yosakoi Soran” dance, this year it is delighted to have Southern Stars’ showcasing their new team music and choreography in Taiko drum & Fan dance at NZ Taiwan Day on the 2nd March 2024. Come and exploring the limitless possibilities of the traditional Japanese drum performance.
南方之星是日本的Yosakoi Soran 舞蹈團體，也是一個志願者組織。自 2003 年 4 月 起，他們便通過這種激動人心的表演藝術在紐西蘭奧克蘭介紹日本文化。 Yosakoi Soran 舞蹈在日本高知縣傳統的 Yosakoi 節和北海道傳統漁民的歌曲 “Soran Bushi” 中具有很強的影響力 。舞者手中的鳴子（木鼓掌）在 Yosakoi 音樂 節中意義重大。索蘭 ·布什（ Soran Bushi）高喊著 “索蘭，索蘭 ……”和划船動作很 重要。 Yosakoi Soran 舞是北海道一位大學生發明的，他在 1992 年創建了 “ Yosakoi Soran Festival”的新舞蹈節。該節於每年 6 月在日本舉行了為期 3 天的 遊行和舞台表演。 每年夏天，來自日本和世界各地的成千上萬的各個年齡段的 Yosakoi Soran 表演者都參加此舞蹈節。活力豐富的表演吸引了數以百萬 計 的觀眾蜂擁而至的北海道札幌音樂 節。近年來，Yosakoi Soran 節已成為全世界最著名的日本典範節之一

The Auckland Diabolo Group 奧克蘭扯鈴隊
The Auckland Diabolo Group is a performance team established in 2011 by a group of students who are passionate about diabolo . Some of the members are students from Feng-Xing Digital Learning Centre, and with the support of the school and assistance from local organizations, they began promoting diabolo in the local community and mainstream schools since 2014.
Their performance style and features include various diabolo tricks such as toss, wraps, grinds, flips, jumps, orbits, captures, and releases. They perform solo, duo, and group acts, incorporating elements like juggling two diabolos, vertical diabolos, long strings, and ribbons, all synchronized with music rhythms, presenting a visually stunning and diverse performance. From their performance, one can see that diabolo requires not only skilled movements and physical coordination but also teamwork and cooperation.
Diabolo is a traditional Chinese yo-yo that has been around for thousands of years, dating back to the Sui Dynasty’s “empty bell”. It spread to Europe in the 18th century and is now popular internationally. Thanks to the promotion of folk sports education and cultural heritage values in schools at all levels in Taiwan, diabolo spinning is quite popular locally and has become the place with the highest density of diabolo players globally. In addition, Taiwan hosts many annual diabolo competitions and events for enthusiasts to exchange ideas, winning several world-class competition championships.
The Auckland Diabolo Group will showcase their performances at the New Zealand Taiwan Day event on March 1st and 2nd, allowing New Zealanders the opportunity to witness the charm of this traditional sports activity!
奧克蘭扯鈴隊是一支由一群熱愛扯鈴的學生於2011年成立的表演團體。其中部分成員是來自鳳興書院數位學習中心的學生，在學校的支持與當地團體的協助下，自 2014年年開始在當地社區及主流學校推廣扯鈴。他們的表演風格和特色綜合各類扯鈴招式，如拋、纏、定、回、跳、繞、套、放等，結合單人、雙人及四人集體演出，同時加入雙鈴、直立鈴及長繩與彩帶等元素，配合音樂節奏，呈現出目不暇給、變化多元的演出形式。從他們的表演中，可以看到扯鈴不僅需要動作的熟練和肢體的協調，更需要團隊的默契。扯鈴是千年以來華人的傳統童玩，可追溯至隋朝的「空鐘」，並在18世紀傳到歐洲，如今已流行於國際間。臺灣在各級學校的民俗體育教育推動下，以及文化傳承價值的推廣，使得扯鈴在當地相當受歡迎，並成為全球扯鈴人口密度最高的地方。此外，臺灣還舉辦了許多年度扯鈴競技賽事和同好相互交流的盛會，並取得了好幾屆的世界級比賽冠軍。
奧克蘭扯鈴隊將於3月 1日及 2日在紐西蘭台灣日的活動中展現他們的表演，讓紐西蘭民眾有機會一睹這項民俗體育運動的魅力！
