Chinese Modern Dance
Chinese Modern Dance
The Sichuan Dance Academy won first price in the Taoli cup with this beautiful modern dance.
Pioneers of Chinese modern dance include Wu Xiaobang, Dai Ailian and Jia Zuoguang. They trained extensively in Western Modern Dance and then brought their training to China. Not only do they incorporate the freedom, spirit and innovation of modern dance, but they also add the national character of China and the trends of today.
It has been mostly during the last 15 years that China has really explored Western Modern Dance. They have also made their mark on the international scene by winning many a gold medal at Modern Dance Competitions.
