A variety of women with dance backgrounds saw Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Music Center in L.A.
[Natalie Martinez, Ballet Dancer]:
“It was very colorful, very precise, very beautiful. It was very very flowy; very amazing."
Angela Vamos shares her impressions.
[Angela Vamos, Dancer]:
“A new world of dance. A lot of history and culture behind it. Folktales and stories, belief and faith.”
Choreographer and dancer Kris Davis was moved to tears.
[Kris Davis, Choreographer, Dancer]:
“I was more emotionally touched, by colors, and the sound and the spiritual undertone and life that was brought to the audience. I was very moved. I had a lot of tears at moments.”
Ms. Davis says the show is beautiful.
[Kris Davis, Choreographer, Dancer]:
“If you were to watch nature and watch a blooming lotus flower... I often felt like I was watching nature, in its full beauty, being expressed through music and dance.”
She enjoyed the distinction between the male and female dances.
[Kris Davis, Choreographer, Dancer]:
“I loved the female and male energies, like so equally balanced. You would have these flower-like aetheric pieces and these very earthy grounding drums, so the yin-yang was very potent and powerful.”
Rex Smith has had a lengthy television, musical and Broadway career. He says Shen Yun’s choreography is wonderful.
[Rex Smith, Actor/Singer]:
“I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I thought it was a wonderful choreography. And the fact that it’s steeped in 5000 years of culture... I was impressed with the dances that had to do with the limited rights of freedom in China.”
