A street dance show and a competition initiated by the China Oriental Street Dance Group were held in Beijing on Dec 21.
The show invited dancers from home and abroad to present a dance gala. Around 500 young dancers from across the country participated in a youth group dance competition.
In the show and the competition, dancers showcased the distinct characters of various dance styles, including breaking, popping, locking, hip-hop, waacking and jazz. Many dancers adopted elements of Chinese traditional dance styles and Chinese kung fu into their choreography, and some narrated stories from Chinese mythology and history, such as the classic novel Journey to the West and story of Hua Mulan.
