SAN FRANCISCO—Dance instructor Caitlin Henry said she found the dancing presented in Shen Yun Performing Arts to be “incredible,” especially the challenging moves such as the tumbling performed by the highly trained dancers.
Ms. Henry, who has been dancing since an early age, now teaches various styles of dance, including ballet, jazz, modern, and others, at a local academy.
‘It’s Really Inspiring’
Ariana Gaydosh, a ballet dancer, was also highly impressed by Shen Yun.
“I want to be in Shen Yun or dance at Shen Yun someday,” said the young dancer.
“I like the way they dance, and I want to be as flexible as them.”
“Classical Chinese dance is an incredibly demanding, refined, and expressive dance form,” says the website. “Alongside ballet, it is also one of the most comprehensive dance systems known to humankind.”
She added that she would be recommending the performance to her friends so they can experience it for themselves.
“It’s really inspiring,” said Ms. Gaydosh.
