Don’t miss out on the excitement!
This classical Chinese dance competition is part of a series of international cultural and arts events hosted by NTD, dedicated to promoting traditional culture. Unfortunately, in China, this rich heritage has been nearly eradicated by the Chinese Communist Party over the past few decades. But now, it’s time to revive and celebrate this ancient art form!
Classical Chinese dance training encompasses three essential components: bearing, form, and techniques. With its roots deeply embedded in 5,000 years of traditional Chinese culture, this expressive dance form stands as one of the most comprehensive dance systems in the world. Prepare to be captivated by its beauty and grace!
NTD’s classical Chinese dance competition is set to usher in a new era for this art form, fostering cultural exchange and spreading the wonders of authentic traditional dance worldwide. It represents purity in authenticity, goodness, and beauty. Join us in experiencing the highest realm of classical Chinese dance!
Witness the revival of forgotten ancient techniques, such as “shen dai shou” (the body leads the hands) and “kua dai tui” (the hips lead the legs), which every dancer has been seeking. These techniques have been reintroduced to the world by the visionary founder and artistic director of Shen Yun Performing Arts, Mr. D.F.
We invite you to be part of this extraordinary journey and witness the highest standard of classical Chinese dance live on stage. Prepare to be amazed!
