The Chinese drum dance has the characteristic of cultural inheritance, functional innovation and expandable artistic expression, but its creative transformation and innovative development are confronted with practical predicaments, like conservative development concepts, lack of theoretical framework, outdated inheritance methods, stereotypical performance forms and so on. Based on the“Three-Dimensional and One-Moment” perspective of Historical Function Theory, we can construct an analytical framework for the“historical tracing - situation assessment - strategy design”of Chinese drum dance. The analysis indicates that in-depth research should be conducted on the innovative development of Chinese drum which is included in the intangible cultural heritage protection system toward fitness-oriented development. It is proposed that the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese drum dance need to be approached from four aspects:concept, theory, method, and technology. First, in terms of conceptual innovation, making the past serve the present is the prerequisite, and promoting health is the mission. Second, in terms of theoretical innovation, Tra ditional Chinese Medicine meridian theory, brain function positioning theory, and micro-circulation theory provide new explanation for creative transformation of Chinese drum dance. Third, in terms of method innovation, we should take health promotion, balance exercises and diversity as problem orientation, take simulation, convenience, economy and standardization as transformation principles, and take scientific, ingenious, practical and reasonable as transformation thoughts. Fourth, in terms of technical innovation, it is essential to connect the patting skills with meridian and acupoints, connect fundamental steps with drum dance steps, and integrate the drumbeat rhythms with music melodies.
