Chinese Dance Academy 中国舞蹈学院

On the evening of Saturday, December 10th 2011, the Chinese Dance Academy successfully held its first dance recital. With over 400 people in the audience, the Kirkland Performance Center was filled with cheers and applauses for students’ outstanding performances. The students’ ages range from 3 years old to over 30 years old. The dances they performed reflect a wide range of Chinese culture. It was truly a rare treat in Seattle to experience all these different aspects of Chinese dance.

2011年12月10日晚，中国舞蹈学院成功举办了该院的首届汇报演出。前来观看演出的观众有400余人，让Kirkland表演中心的礼堂座无虚席。在精彩的演出进行的过程中，礼堂里不时传来热烈的掌声和喝彩声。参加演出的学员小的只有3岁，大的有30多岁，但是她们都带着同样的热情在舞台上尽情地舞蹈，出色地将多姿多彩的中国文化展现给了西雅图的观众。
