Introduction to Chinese Classical Dance
Chinese classical dance and Chinese martial arts grew from the same roots. In Chinese, the two words even sound alike. Many of the leaps, spins, and weapon forms you see on stage began as fighting techniques, later shaped into an art of grace, power, and storytelling. A short introduction to watch for before the evening's Shen Yun performance.
