During the Spring Festival Gala - The Four Golden Hairpins of Dance "Peng Tianyue, Xie Zhizhi, Zhu Meilin, Long Xinlan" Peng Tianyue (Tina) Peng) learns Chinese folk dance…

Peng Tianyue (Tina Peng) has studied Chinese folk dance for 12 years and is the dance champion of the 3rd Chinese Culture Competition. 24 performances from 16 countries around the world participated in this competition. She won first place in the national preliminary round and the semi-finals, and represented the US team in the finals in Xiamen, China.

Tina Peng

>Tina Peng, who is 1.72 meters tall, has very good physical conditions. She said that in her 12 years of study experience, this competition was the most unforgettable. First, she has never participated in such a large international competition. Secondly, I don’t know the strength of players from other countries at all. On the day of the finals, Peng Tianyue watched the competition of the 16 players before him and secretly drummed in his heart. The players participating in the competition were all quite strong. Especially No. 16, you can tell at a glance that she has been studying dance for many years. The dance she performed, "Xi'er", combines folk dance and ballet. The performers' expressions were very good, but there were still many shortcomings in their basic skills. After five minutes of dancing, they were a little exhausted. Peng Tianyue performed in her 20th program. She synthesized the Mongolian dance "In That Distant Place" in one go and received warm applause. "I have danced this dance several times, but I think I danced it best in this competition," Peng Tianyue told reporters. Most folk dances express feminine softness. She said that Mongolian dance allowed her to experience the rough and heroic personality of prairie women, and these personalities are reflected in the dance movements through aura and ventilation. Dance has entered a high-level training. It is no longer about your basic skills, where your hands go, and where your feet go, but about the reshaping of a dance cultural background and the character's personality. For example, the shoulder swing of Mongolian dance may be viewed by many as the same movement, but she feels that it is all different. The amplitude and rhythm of each shoulder swing create an emotion or a personality, so some small movements can resonate with the audience. Peng Tianyue will play an important role in dance this Spring Festival Gala. Her performances include: "Beauty", "Love Lotus", "Spring Ballet" and "Flowers"

Jennie Xie

Jennie Xie has been studying dance for 14 years. First place in the Arizona Cactus Cup dance competition. Her representative solo dance works include "Xi'er". Last year, Zhizhi participated in a dance tour co-organized by four well-known dance schools in Chicago. That was the first time she deeply realized the relationship between dance and the cultural background in which she grew up. Zhizhi said that that trip was a group of children who liked to dance. They were all born in the United States and went to school in the United States. All of them participated in unified training at four well-known dance schools. Even if it is the same dance, children from different cultural backgrounds perform completely differently. Dance gave her a deeper understanding of the Chinese culture. Xie Zhizhi's performances in this Spring Festival Gala include: "Love Lotus" and "Spring Ballet"

Meilin Zhu

Meilin Zhu has been studying dance for 7 years and won the third place in the third Chinese Culture Competition with her dance "Wings of the Heart". When asked about how you feel different from others after learning dance? Merlin said that we may know better what beauty is, and that beauty requires attention to details. In the case of dance, they can tell at a glance whether certain movements are completed because the movements are broken down into each knuckle and toe. Without paying attention to the details, the movements will not be beautiful enough. Merlin said dance had a huge impact on her studies and other things in life.

Zhu Meilin's performances in this Spring Festival Gala include: "Beauty", "Love Lotus" and "Wings of the Heart"

Chloe Chodorow

She is a Chinese girl adopted by an American couple. The process of learning dance in these eleven years is not only a process of understanding Chinese culture, but also a process of honing my will with my parents. The reporter asked Xinlan whether many basic skills in dance are difficult and painful to practice? Her smiling face immediately twisted, and her head nodded like a rattle: "Yes, some of it hurts very much, but I know that after the pain is over, I will get better. Have you ever thought about giving up? She shook her head. "I have never thought about giving up. I like it very much. "Where are your parents?" Sometimes they feel very tired, but thinking about it because I like it and it's good for me, they always support me. " Long Xinlan's performances in this Spring Festival Gala include: "Plum", "Ailian Talks" and "Blooming Season".
