Amazing, Honest, and full of positive energy

I always admire youth. Strong, agile, full of pulsating energy, young people are indeed our future!
None are more captivating than the members of a traveling dance troupe called Shen Yun.

Three of them captivated my interest through a YouTube video channel called The Three Musketeers.

The New Yorker magazine had an article on them.
Stepping Into the Uncanny, Unsettling World of Shen Yun
The dancers are so beautiful and full of energy. What better way to willingly support an expression of an ancient culture?

They are not allowed to tour China. The freedom of ideas and expression is a threat to that regime. We are glad to have them here in America, however.

How Do You Warm Up For The Show?

Has anyone seen the performance?

Edited by Phat, : edited out references to Shen Yun as a cult. I suspect the CCP themselves spreads that propaganda.

Re: Amazing, Honest, and full of positive energy

I'm hooked. I wrote the Dance Troupe a letter. They have my respect and admiration.

Here is more from them.(recent videos)

I would love for them to come to Denver.

The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of a doubt, what is laid before him.” - Leo Tolstoy, The Kingdom of God is Within You (1894).
