Damn. I watched a documentary on this, and you even have to be flexible down to your fingertips and toes. It's so much work! I think this has to be the hardest dance style ever!
You are right, there is no doubt there are martial arts elements to it. Also I'd like to point out that some moves here resemble the butterfly jump---a very hard move for girls given the core strength required. It is well-known that Soviet-styel dance training is heavily gymnastic----what's shown here is even beyond that.
wow i love the music!! but not as much as the DANCING! i hate how the second girl completely winds up for her turn :/ the western world is not yet done for ;)
The Beijing Dance Acadamy is one of the best dance schools in China. And since everything in China is so competitive (due to the large population) you can imagine how hard these girls have to work to stay on top...
This is amazing! their spins are superhuman and remind me of helicopters. Maybe I should go to Japan but how much time would have to be devoted to dance to become this good?
n 1997 a girl called lauren was walikng in a forest and then a she just dissapeared no one ever found her untill 2000 when a yoing girl called Mary found her body and markings on her chest saying: I wasnt pretty enough" and now you have read this she will appear in your mirror saying your not pretty enough and kill you. by the way the girl called mary died shortly after. To be saved paste this to 5 other videos.
Holly Sh1t! Those are awesome techniques. They spin so fast, it is like ice dancing. So Victoria of f(x) can do those move too since she is from the same school?
@mssongslovers I think she definitely knows how to and she can. Its just a matter of how polished her techniques still are, with all the hiphop/pop dance she now dances. Chinese ballet and any dance for that matter, needs constant practice to maintain that kind of technique. I just wish SM or TV show producers would give her an opportunity to dance something like this, say in live concerts or something.
im in chinese dance and this is sooo suberbly stunning. young talents now adays. very good. two thumbs up. imagine the time they take to rehearse so acheive perfection
Wow, this was amazing! Thanks for posting :) How old are the students who attend? It felt like sometimes some of the girls had a hard time with control - like, they might have been going a little too fast to stay in control. BUT overall phenomenal - incredibly talented dancers!!

There is a fine line usually between Art & Sports
No line here it is just technique with no Arts
Some of the blending between the two dance culture are promising but nothing impressive here
The Chinese Culture is vase, wonderful & so creative, we see it true the Olympic how Arts, sports, discipline and creativity could amaze the human spirit, But this is just movements with no sole. No empress lot of the Technique was not that great, lack of timing, bad extension 6 .5 on 10 ...
XD Just because you're an unperceptive boob and can't see the passion and energy coming from these dancers does not mean that the artistry and creativity are not there in their performance. And please take a few grammar and spelling courses. It'd probably keep people from assuming that you're an insufferable prick :]
i have to clarify , in chinese dance, we don't call it Gymnastics, these techniques are originaly exist in chinese classcial dance and also chinese oprea !
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
its so cool!
and adicting tio watch!
i like the ones that do lots of gymnastics, and the ones that spin... no ofense, but the ones that just jump three times in a row is kinda dumb... no ofense... its just that it kinda seems like that they have no talent... NO OFENSE!(i know im saying no ofense a lot... but oh well.) I LOVE IT!(and the music always gets stuck in mu head.):):):):):):):):)::):)
just because other girls have simpler maneuvers does not make them any less talented. i'm sure any of these girls can take on any routine they're assigned.
spinning like that is actually one of the basic techniques in chinese dance, but to be able to jump with you leg up that high...really can't be done without years of basic hard traning
The only thing I would say is to point their feet more... bothered me a little. There's some other iffy technique in there but obviously it's not ballet.
That lost fouette girl blew my mind. And the stamina of the split-jumps - WOW. Gorgeous!
can u help me Emily, actually i'm from India and my name is Wongshu i am also associate with one of the biggest dance company in India and we would like to learn these kind of technique, i am trying to contact Beijing dance company but its not happening so, this is the last option which i am trying. I will be very gratefull if u send me their email id or ur teacher email- id. plz plz plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I was very impressed with the stamina of the jumping girls and the speed of their tap dance styled turns (not sure of the proper term as I never trained in tap myself- just ballet & modern) was out of this world!
Some do-yes. I saw a few of the Russian gymnasts do them at this years Olympics, ofcourse not uncommon for Russian gymnasts to have ballet technique classes included in their training though. It makes for a much better floor routine.
OMG!
it's simply amazing
