------------------《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会 观后感一:
Hi Yang Qing and Alex,

What a wonderful show! Congratulations!

My husband was touched almost to tears watching "Chasing the dreams". For many years we've been living a relatively comfortable life here and kind of forget the hardships we had when we just came to this country. The dance was so powerful that it brought back all the memories and emotions. Yang Qing certainly achieved what she wanted to express with this creation. Fabulous work!

And we enjoyed every other one of the dances too. The choreograph, music, costume, performance, back view, lights and every details tells great effort put on by Yang Qing, you and everyone involved. Beside the entertainment, the show really presented a marvelous China and it brought out our pride, and it'll expand our visibility in local community.

Thank you all so much!

Dear Qing,

I want to tell you that how wonderful your Dance performance is tonight. Sam was very moved. This is his first time to experience the beauty of Chinese dance: "Dance is love for life." And thank you so much for having two best seats for us within such short notice. I don't know what you did to make it happen. I truly appreciate your effort. Tonight's performance made me want to learn to dance in the future.

In the future, please let Sam and I know if we can be any help to support your passion: Dance is Love for Life.

Best,
Yiping

Dear all,

直到昨天送走了从加州远道而来的朋友陈红冰, 终于又回到了平静的工作状态。脑子里才开始回放着那过去的日日夜夜和每一个人亲切美丽的面容......

还是那句话:想说的实在太多!最让我骄傲的是我们的团队精神。 每一个人都扮演了重要的角色, 为了这次演出。在这长长的筹备的日子里, 无论遇到任何难题,我们都是团结一致,愉快地走过。 这是我最开心很感动的, 因为有了每一个人---从孩子到家属---全力的合作和支持, 才有了《中华情》的成功和传播。谢谢大家!谢谢每一位的点滴相助!

说实在, 当我离开剧院大门, 杨专武问我:“我是不是还要回去再检查一遍”?我拍拍他的背说:“对, 这是剧务主任的职责!”看着他的背影冲进剧场大门,眼泪快掉下来。 这就是我们的团队, 大家都不是专业的,可是却胜似专业。 非常尽职。 这才有了一场业余的演出感动了那么多的观众。。。。。身边的每一位, 无论是华夏艺术团还是sunny class, 或是少儿艺术团的成员, 大家都把自己 当作这个团队不可分割的一部分。每个人都融入在这个集体中, 不分彼此共同承担演出所需要的任何付出。我总是对我的朋友说:我很幸运, 总遇到这么多聪明又善良的人。 每当我有求, 就有救; 每当我伸出一只手, 就有很多手握在一起。这种合作的愉快难以言喻。所以我说:累, 但值得!

谢谢每一位及你们的家人。

谢谢冷西,经济是基础, 没有你从去年就开始的漫长的筹款和坚定乐观的信心, 难以成就这场晚会。(还有最后刘双林的拔刀相助拉赞助)

谢谢李欧,承担着总协调和节目排练的重任。特别是为了这场演出, 提前离开父亲的八十大寿庆典 返回美国。这种无私的奉献, 除了雷锋就是李欧。

谢谢惠萍,十多年如一日, 坚持长距离往返学舞, 并承担着组织排练的任务。特别是每次 排练后还要开会到十一点多, 然后再开车一个多小时回家。那份敬业 和牺牲真的让我感动。

谢谢仁滨,总是默默无闻地提供我们所需要的东西。 特别是在临近演出的最后几天,放下家中幼小的孩子, 不分昼夜协助我和晓勇完成大量的工作。上周三, 冒着大雪赶到剧场和我们一起做灯光排练。那几天我们最后相互说的都是“注意身体。。。 ”一切都在不言中。害怕彼此身体累病了。

谢谢Theresa, 为了剧场的联系, 不知花了多少学习的时间。好在聪明的你并没影响你的成绩。相信你的未来会更加阳光灿烂。

吴韫青,卫东,你好象是各路天才集一身, 不仅音乐做得好, 票务也做的如此成功。

谢谢博娅和你的队员李玫,王艳林,马丽, 那份细心和认真使我们的服装得到一致赞扬。

谢谢刘航, 王晓秋, 高冷西, 谢勤,陈金金, 因为你们使我们的演员更美丽。

谢谢舞台监督:顾青,马丽,刘双华, 是你们的严谨工作让节目顺利进行.

谢谢李燕君, 王晓兰,Lisa, Tina, 康凯, 龚茵茵 等,没有你们这些星妈, 哪有孩子们的精彩和星光......

谢谢舞台总监,于晖,因为你的加入, 减轻了我的压力。

谢谢字幕幻灯沙丹, 虽然最后没能用上,可是你做得非常好。交给你任何事, 特别放心, 你总是很干练的完成。更特别的是还让先生出钱赞助!

谢谢吴行浩,不辞劳苦跟随我们一次又一次的摄影。得以留下美好的记忆......

谢谢 桂冲,你的才华充分展现在这次演出中, 没有你的追光我们的演出将会逊色不少。

谢谢摄影刘鸣, 任劳任怨的服务于我们。

谢谢林伟星, 干冰技术掌握的又快又好。 美极了。

谢谢剧务主任杨专武, 你的责任和威严使我们的队伍井井有条。

谢谢场务张远政,胡龙琪,你们虽然没能制止住所有人的相机, 可是你们尽职了。 因为你们认真的巡逻, 使观众一直保持好的秩序。

谢谢王聪,以 最快的速度为我们翻译出美丽的词句。

谢谢我们的音响师王坚, 你告诉了我们---谁是专业音响师。

感谢上帝, 在最后两天, 我们终于有了摄影师(谢谢刘双林极力联系)黄小炎:如果这场演出是昙花一现, 可能会留下遗憾的美; 但因为有了你, 我们将遗憾变成了完美的纪录。 我相信, 你的感动和创意将会使这盘纪录更加贵......

谢谢所有的小演员们, 你们的美丽可爱的笑脸印在了那天晚上每位观众的心上。
谢谢漂亮的两姐妹许芸,许红,一直都觉得你们还在我们中间跳舞, 谢谢你们持续不断的支持和鼓励。
谢谢陈红冰,远隔千山飞来见我们,突然想到诗一句:跳舞陈可贵,友情价更高。谢谢你远方的客人, 只是留不下你。
谢谢第一个把我们这个团体贴到报纸上去的名作家红墙,谢谢你随叫随到的无私援助。
谢谢顾鸣争, 你用深情的歌声让中华情的大幕徐徐落下。 最后我要谢谢我们的特邀嘉宾,姚新秋,阳建平。新秋, 你对艺术的认真和极高的艺术修养使我获益匪浅。你的美丽的歌声为我们拉开了成功的序幕。大阳,如果没有你,我们的晚会将会缺少色彩, 我说过你会成为新州的第一主持, 你已经开始了!谢谢你, 祝贺你!大家都很喜欢你!
还要谢谢我们的赞助商家和赞助的朋友们, 这些朋友是因为我们的友情和对中华文化的热爱而贡献。他们是:荆红,孟琳,朱宏,林洁辉,俞美美!

特别要谢谢Vicki Chen,她将《中华情》晚会介绍给许多美国朋友,她为社区公共关系和联络做了很多很好的工作!
最最后, 我要谢谢我的先生赵晓勇,或许他父母给了他名字中这个“勇”字,他似乎没有干不了或害怕的事。 从总监制到整体舞台灯光策划,那独具创意的近千张艺术舞台背景设计, 灯光方案和节目单设计。他总是固执地对我说:“还不行,还要更好些,再干一个通宵吧!”。 我不知道如果没有他, 没有他的爱, 我会不会去计划这样一场巨大的演出。 他的毅力,决心和支持给了我信心和力量,让我只能用最完美的演出给与他回报。记得12/8 清晨,我在编排闭幕的队形,睡了3 小时觉的他起床后, 问我第一句话“你紧张吗?”我说“不紧张。 ”他说“我好紧张。 ”我知道喜欢较真,追求完美的他, 唯恐晚上的演出有任何差错。此时“ 谢谢 ”“我爱你 ” 已经太轻太轻......

还有最最最后,谢谢董欣,庆一,主成, 汤岚,秋艳,张勤,李伟,曾瑛,王弘,俊霞,吴翔,特别是宋丽萍为了集体而牺牲自己上场的机会, 多好的班组。如果我漏掉了谁的名字, 请别骂我,允许我用另外的方式来弥补。谢谢大家, 好好度假,如同你们在舞台上一样,让你们的家里也充满阳光和魅力。

Love,
Qing

P.S.原谅我在那晚的party 上不敢说, 因为我知道我会管不住眼泪......

Hi Yang Qing,

Thanks for the kind words! What a Greeeeeeeeeet show. That was way beyond my expectation. My friend who went to the show told me that your dance was one of the best he's seen.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I'm just happy that I didn't screw it up too big! Thanks for the opportunity for me to show my ignorance as a MC!

Yang Qing,

I can't control my tears when I read your letter.

I suggest that all parents should read this letter to our kids, let them know how much everyone contributed to this performance, how important hard team work to success and they are one of key players in the team. When we share our feeling with them, they will learn a lot.

------------------《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会 观后感六:

Dear Qing:
I was so moved while I were reading your articles.

Jinjin just called me yesterday and said " I feel lost after the curtain of Marvelous China show coming down!". I believe most of us had the same feeling.

Here I just like to say you are really something. You are not only pretty, elegant woman but also inner beauty with such beautiful personalities. Without you, we couldn't getting together and making sunch big difference. Without you, we couldn't make our dreams become true. Without you, we couldn't feel our life so colorful. It is us to say thanks to you and Xiaoyong. Thank you for all you did for us.

Cheers!

十年追梦翩翩舞,绚丽多姿一台戏

                  -红墙(Sunny Wang)

“‘追梦’让我和先生满含泪水。来美多年后,我们几乎忘记了刚到美国时的艰辛,你们的舞蹈让我们想起了当初。。。”这是一位观众在看完《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会写下的观感。

由杨青工作室与普林斯顿大学Triple 8舞蹈团联合主办的《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会于12月8日晚在普林斯顿的Berlind 剧院演出。三百多位观众挤满了剧场,观看了华夏艺术团,杨青少儿艺术团,普林斯顿大学Triple 8舞蹈团, Sunny舞蹈团和特邀嘉宾演出了精美节目。

无论是双人舞“悄悄话”,三人舞“穿鞋”,还是感伤的《梁祝》片断“化蝶”,快活的“溜溜康定情”,每一个节目都引人入胜,观众席上掌声阵阵。

杨青发起的华夏艺术团成立了十年,所以这台晚会也是华夏艺术团的十年年庆。这十年中,她们从几位华夏中文学校的妈妈开始,一起跳到今天很有几分专业水平的团体,就这么怀着对舞蹈的热爱和执着,在异国他乡打拼的同时,一路 “追梦”至今。晚会上领舞的顾惠萍,李欧,赵仁滨等都是华夏艺术团的中流砥柱。

晚会中有四个少儿舞蹈节目,特别令观众喜欢。这些在美国出生在美国成长的孩子们,这些活泼可爱的孩子们,除了积极参加学校的cheerleading, 体操等课外活动之余,还发现了一个好地方能学习中国舞蹈,这就是杨青的少儿艺术团。孩子们学习“剪纸姑娘”,学习“红扇翩翩”,还学习中外结合的“快乐的踢踏舞”等等。 她们的一举一动,很有民族特色和传统味道。尤其孩子们还表演了“白毛女”片段,把“北风那个吹,雪花儿那个飘”演得很有几分意境,令人热情地为她们鼓掌。

看到台上那一张张天真无邪的笑脸,不得不让人感慨:多么幸福的童年!

整台晚会基本上是黑头发黑眼睛的龙的传人,包括普林斯顿大学的Triple 8舞蹈团的团员们,当然了,晚会的名字就叫《中华情》。不过,晚会里面也有几位“老外”,黄头发蓝眼睛白皮肤,或者中文一曲“茉莉花”或者一身红绸旗袍,演绎三十年代的上海女性,也很别具一格。

“老外”阳建平 (Bill Engst) 再次粉墨登场,与杨青一起共同主持这台节目。他以老美的外表地道的英文亮相,然后说一口十分标准的中文,震惊很多不熟悉他的观众,后来的关于“不三不四,给你点颜色瞧瞧” (no three no four, give you clover see see)小笑话,一嗓子很好听的中音“跑马溜溜的山上,有朵溜溜的云”等等,给晚会添笑不少。


《中华情》舞蹈晚会顺利结束,演员们随着“难忘今宵”的旋律和歌声走到前台来谢幕,一直情绪高涨的观众没有象其他的晚会一样没完没了地给演员们鼓掌,而是象潮水一样涌到舞台前,用相机,用语言,用握手,用拥抱。。。来祝贺晚会的大获成功!太精彩了,背景,灯光,音响,报幕,舞美,服装。。。每一个环节都基本上无可挑剔,综合的效果就是为全体观众呈现了一台颇具专业水平的演出!

台上台下热闹成了一片。

蒙哥马利市学监(Superintendent)Sam Stewart也跟其他观众一起起劲儿挤到前面,去跟演员们握手祝贺,他说,节目十分优秀!我要告诉演员们她们太棒了!而蒙市的华人教育委员王益平忍不住对杨青说:看到你们跳着这么高兴,我也想学中国舞蹈了!挤到前台的还有好几位老美女士,她们是一位演员的邻居。这帮老美也争着告诉我:太好看了!我们特别为台上的演员们骄傲。我们知道她们不是专业演员,但跳得真是太好了。她们挤到杨青跟前,一定要跟杨青照相留念。

闪光灯下,我看到艺术总监杨青的泪水盈盈。这是杨青工作室准备了一年多的一台节目。毕竟大家都另外有一种养家糊口的工作,一切都需要工作之余来完成,而每一个环节都有很多外人难以想象的波折。一年多的辛苦准备终于换来了一场获得在场观众认可并欣赏的晚会!这一刻,站在台上谢幕的杨青是怎样的心情--也许有几分欣慰,也许有几分激动,也许有几分放松,也许还有几分失落(再精美的晚会也有跟观众说晚安的时候),也许就是酸甜苦辣一齐涌上心头吧。

泪水滑落,笑容满面。

杨青说:“对舞蹈的热爱是我们内心深处的原动力,而对中华文化与艺术的发扬和传播,则让我们在异域的漂泊中感受到生命价值之所在” 。这句话解释了杨青和许多热爱舞蹈的朋友们十多年来的坚持和努力。而正因为她/他们的坚持和努力才让我们看到了一台精美的演出,堪与专业演出媲美。

Dear teacher Yang,

What an impressive writing letter! your dearly warm heart give everybody so many thanks, but do you know how many thanks we want to give to you. you are my first and only dance teacher who make my dance dream come true in my whole life. You may not know how deeply I wish I could be little bit smarter to learn dance earlier from the day I knew you. We all want to thank you for your guidance to teach us dance and endless encouragements to bring us on the stage. Until now, everybody from our Sunny group are still excited about the chance you gave to us show on such a professional stage. if there is anything as a student to make our dear teacher little unsatisfied, please forgive us.

I always wanted to express my thanks to you and congrates you for this wonderful gala. I saw your excitement and tears that night and I could not hold myself for my dear teacher./p>

Dear Qing, you don't know we are not only respect you, we love you dearly from the bottom of our heart. We do.

------------------《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会 观后感十:

Dear Teacher Yang Qing and all the Moms,

I felt the same way as Yanjun did, with tears in my eyes as reading the letter, which almost scared my colleagues.

About two years ago, Vivian joined the children's performance troop. I watched and shared her progress and joy in the art of dancing performance over the past two years. This summer we visited China. Many friends and relatives were so amazed to see that growing up in America Vivian can perform Chinese dance. We feel very lucky, proud and horned to be involved in such a prestigious group. No matter how many "Thank You" I say, it wouldn't express my appreciation to you, teacher Yang Qing and all the moms, who made this group so wonderful.

I look forward to seeing more progress and joy in the new year, and many years to come.

Thanks,
Wei Dong

Qing:

First of all, let us say: many thanks for you for what you have done for all of this, you did the most works and job, held the biggest burden and pressure, it was not easy for you to do that with such a success! We wonder how could you do it, is it as you said "love is power" that always give you the power to pursued your carer? with the power you worked so hard, so staunch, so selfless, it seems that there were no tough things you can't overcome, it was a miracle!

Then, I like to say, you really need to have a good rest, and thanks for the others who worked hard and paid a lots their efforts for our gala this days, like Xiaoyong, Shadan, Renbin, Nancy, .......as well as those who worked silently and whom I couldn't name them! without your works, without our success!

Last, let's keep going and looking forward the bigger successful and more brilliant performing! /p> I love you, everyone!

------------------《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会 观后感十三:

Dear Qing and Alex,

I tried to avoid writing more because I know all of us have the same feelings about you, our teams and the sucessful events. I have to add more words to express our appreciation.

There are many professional dancers from China currently reside in US and quite a few are teaching dances. However, we rarely heard students of a single teacher can make a such high quality show at first-class theatre. It happened in New Jersey because of your enthusiasium and love of Chinese culture, your skill and charisma to these Chinese dance lovers. Perhaps, there are several dance groups elsewhere can perform dance at the same level as us but it is very hard to have a dedicated stage designer like Alex to add more beauty to the art of dance. I heard so many audience saying the backdrops were wonderful. As a member of HXPAT and one of the parents of children dance class, I feel very lucky to have such an opportunity to learn dance from you. We are all proud to be part of the teams. In the past 4 years, I learned a lot from you and other team members--dancing skills, spirit, caring and cooperation. We are amateur dancers but such experience make our lives more colorful. You may not realize how great you are, your contributions to our community and culture bridging are siginificant. In a 'noteworthy' word, your name will remain in history.

I hope you and all other dancers remain healthy. We can have another anniversary show in a few years.

------------------《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会 观后感十七:

Hi All,

读完“中华情”观后感, 我感到有必要将Christina学跳舞的点点滴滴记下来, 将这原始的资料留给她. 妈妈是不会写, 妈妈是除了眼泪还是眼泪:

  每次我打开扬青老师的VCD, 七岁的Christina 就会跑来和我一起看. 有一次, 她对我说:“She is so beautifully. She looks so young. She will be grand grand grand…grand grandma.”

2007年9月10号是扬青老师的第一次课, 兴奋了两个晚上没有睡好觉的Christina去上课了, 一进门就发现八岁Christina比别的小孩小. 我心里也清楚扬青老师不想要Christina.

我琢磨这事怎样对刚兴奋了两个晚上没有睡好觉的Christina说, 她不是一容易哄的小孩. 于是, 我决定先给Christina 做思想准备工作, 两天后对她说:’’宝宝,有的小孩因为太小, 扬青老师就让她们暂时不要去.” 我刚一说到这里, Christina就说:”I start to worry. Mom, I feel scared.” 我对她的反应毫无准备. 反倒安慰她几句.第一次做思想准备工作没有任何结果. 心里想着再找机会.

上了两次课后, 扬青老师还没有明确指出要还是不要,给Christina 做思想准备工作还得继续.一天, 她对我说:”Mom, I want to tell you something, but you have to promise not to tell anybody.” I promised, she said: “You know, I fell challenge at my dancing class.” 我眼前一亮,机会来了,对她说:”不要去. 好吧.” 她说:”Elan is very good, I feel bad when I watch her dance, but I feel OK when I watch other kids dance, I think I can handle it. Trust me.” 我不知道说什么是好,当小孩遇到challenge, 做妈妈的应当鼓励.此时此刻, 我鼓励不出口. 做思想准备工作再次失败. 一个月后,她告诉我:”I feel comfortable now.”

三次课后,扬青老师告诉我,她要Christina. 我一下抱住扬青老师, 思想准备工作不用了.

五个小孩car pool, Christina回到家好似一阵春风吹进来. 我先生从楼上下来, 问我: “什么事, 她这样高兴.” 我说“捡到金子了.”

Christina 告诉我: “We have one chief commander and four group leaders at our class, you know, who is the chief commander.”

星期二晚饭后, Christina看到我出门, 追到门边, “Mom, remember say hi to my teacher for me.” 我说:”妈妈上课不能讲话,你自己对老师说.”

大概上到五,六次课, 回到家就说:”I want to write a letter to my teacher.”

我问:”你要对她说什么?”

She said: ”I want to tell her I really enjoy her class.”

“还有吗?”

“That’s it.”

我笑了. “一句话的信妈妈不想看, 你的老师也不想看, 好好读书, 长大了给老师写看了一遍,还看一遍的信.”

Thanks
Qingyi
 
------------------《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会 观后感十八:

Dear Qing,

The words from Zhuanwu, Brenda and others made me cry because they represented exactly what I wanted to say!

Here I only want to add one more sentence -- I want you to know that as a teacher and a friend of mine for 10 years, you brought a lot of joy and meaning to my life and the memory will stay with me for the rest of my life. Thank you very very so much! Please also let Alex know that he is the best, second to none artist! The combination of you two not only make perfect husband and wife, but also make perfect performing arts! Many thanks to Alex!

------------------《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会 观后感十九:

Dear Qing,

I'm very moved when I read all these emails.

I couldn't agree with Brenda more. I came from Seattle and I was in a dance team there too. The dancers there are as nice and devoted as the dancers here. But the big difference is, here we have a good teacher. In Seattle we cannot find a teacher who is willing to devote her time. We have to learn a dance from video and we need to discuss and guess how to do it well, but here we have an authority, who is elegant, professional, with very good personality and leadership. From this perspective, dancers here are really very lucky and I feel lucky to find the team after moving here. Having been in the dance team for 2 months, I'm not surprised that this team has lasted for 10 years and will last longer.

Congratulations on the marvelous show! One thing I need to add is that after both performances my husband said you are the best MC he has seen in the US, elegant, natural and emotional. Also, whereas there might be other dance teachers devoted as well, Alex is probably the most devoted spouse-of-dance-teacher. Great job and we are very impressed. If I were you, being able to do what I love and thrive on it, and being well supported by my family, I would be VERY satisfied with my life. :-)

thanks,
Luna

Can't agree more with the comments of Luna and all other teammates here, it is XiaoYong and Qing who turned an armature team into a professional dancing group! You both are the backbone and spirit of our dancing group, without your dedicated hard work, we wouldn't be able to perform on stage confidently and enthusiastically. Just like what I told Qin on the phone, I felt kind of lost after the performance, the energy, the faith, the passion were just fading away from me...

Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

Dear Qing,

Ten years – Wow! 10 years ago, few of those who were at Yu Hui’s basement, where the Troupe was born, who would’ve thought we would had our own show in a formal theater 10 years later. We all knew well that with full time jobs and family commitments, dancing is just our pastime. It was your inspiration, encouragement, guidance, and particularly your leadership skills that made the group evolve into a mature, skillful, professional-looking dancing troupe. With the true team effort, we had a very successful debut last Saturday. I think what my thesis advisor, Prof. Dauerman, said in a letter summarizes well about our dances: "… you were superb in communicating that dance was not separate, but rather a continuum of your life informed by relationships in performance like the relative positions of bodies in any place, colors, costumes, and sounds." He also mentioned: "My wife who had been for many years the arts/dance coordinator of Union City was equally impressed."

Even though ten years have passed, a few earlier stories still vividly remain in my mind. When Chen Tong, who was our Chinese school principal at that time, bought us our first "Han Zu" costume top, He said to us, "These are the closest costumes that I could find in Shanghai." He was right, it was a fancy shirt with a dark blue base, small white flowers, and a white stripe on each side of sleeves. But there were no matching pants! We heard that there were a few silky fabric stores in Indian Town in Edison. Li Ou and I spent the whole afternoon there, and finally brought back light neutral colored fabrics for the pants.

I also remember our first "Zang Zu" costume was brought from "Hit and Miss". We could not even get the same color for each dancer. So, we had to buy 5 red and 5 blue costumes. Zhao Xiao-Yong magically made the apron, using only a paintbrush! He painted different color lines to cover the whole apron. What a beautiful homemade colorful costume!

At the first performance in New York City, sponsored by Oversea Chinese Student Association, you introduced us as "A group of highly educated professional woman". On the stage, our hairstyles, with two hair braids, and red bow ties, made us look like big eighteen year-old sisters. After the show, none of us seemed willing to wash away our make up and take out the hair we had on. We felt like we were back to our childhood. I asked myself "I’m still dancing on the stage after so many years in another country, is this real?"

Over these years, I have learned a lot from you, all the dances, skills, expressions, and movements. Most importantly, we have built our long-term friendship. Thank you for being there with us 10 years ago, and thank you for still being here with us today. Without your passion, dance coaching, dedication, and support, this wouldn’t have been possible. What an amazing ride it has been!

Love,
Huiping

Dear Qing,

I'm out of words and just wanted to mention one thing. I was really impressed and touched on the afternoon of the big day. I was actually not very confident in the show after Friday's dress rehearsal, but when we came back to the theater the next day, you had a quick meeting. You started with "yesterday's rehearsal went very well, it was good that all possible problems were exposed and addressed and served the purpose of rehearsal. Tonight's show should have little problem and will be great!". You said that in a calm, matter-of-fact tone, no exagerating, no pretending... After hearing that, I suddendly felt relaxed, confident ,determined and anxious to dance in the show! I've taken many classes on leaderships for work, but you, just showed me exactly what leadership is! Thank you, thank you for everything, and thank you for giving little Brenda the opportunity. I'm not sure how she will be in the area of dancing, but I know, she, as well as myself, will remember, forever, that you, a fine dancer and choreographer, a warm teacher and friend, gave her the precious aknowledgement, and encouragement, that a little girl with her naive interest and dream in dancing, really needs. Thank you!!

Dear Yang Qing Laoshi:

Marvelous show and memorable pictures!

How absorbing the show was? Lilly?s seven-year-old brother sat and watched for the entire three hours! Even the newest and hottest video game cannot beat it!!!

Your teaching has instilled in our children the cultural pride as well as the value of hard work that would go a long way to help their future life.

Tons of thanks again!

Dear QingY:

I read the whole comments area of "Marvelous China Gala" just now. I realized that I missed the opportunity to say "Thank you" at the first place, I missed the opportunity to take a picture with you on that night, and I missed the opportunity to introduce our "Sunny dancing group" on the party, I hope it's not too late to say something about us. We are all working Mom who had never taken any formal dancing training in the past (except Theresa, she's a special member in our group:), what brings us together is dance, dance with Qing every Tuesday night, we enjoy the homey Chinese traditional music, we enjoy the sweating after the warm up, we enjoy every new dance movement that teacher Yang taught us. I don't
remember since when Tuesady becomes a day that I'm looking forward during the week, and nowTuesday becomes my official "Mom night out day", dance becomes part of my life. I can't imagine I would move to a place without Qing Yand Dance Studio nearby. Our "Three Gorges, my home town" have a very positive feedback, nobody believes that we all "NEW" in our dance career, and we are all very sure that if we stay closer with Qing, we'll be more attractive and prettier, our life will be more colorful and we'll do better and better.

------------------《中华情》经典中国民族舞蹈晚会 观后感二十五:

如歌的使者: <<中华情>>

由杨青舞蹈工作室主办的<<中华情>>--华夏艺术团十年庆在观众热烈持久的掌声中 徐徐落下了帷幕。此时,作为演员同时又是观众的我所感受到的不仅是一种艺术的 享受更是一种中华文化的洗礼。是啊,十年了,从当年的地下室建团到今天世界 著名学府普林斯顿大学的剧场,杨青的舞蹈工作室走过了不平凡的历程。她所带领 的孩子们毕业了一茬又一茬,如今已是桃李满天下。那些因工作或读书而搬迁的家 庭来来往往,他们分散在全美甚至世界的各个角落,从事着各样的职业,但无论在 哪一块土地,哪一个角落, 只要有机会,他们都会用杨青所教授的舞蹈,向同事、 朋友或当地居民介绍和展示这一中华文化艺术的瑰宝。老外不识中文,可他们看得 懂舞蹈,因为艺术是相通的。而且,只有代表民族的,才是得以走向世界的。杨青 的民族舞蹈就是一种对中华文化最好的诠释。

也许连杨青自己都没有意识到这十年来她实际上一直在扮演着一个传播中华文化的 使者的角色。如果说马立平的中文教材给那些生长在国外的中国孩子们提供了非常 实用和有趣的学习中文的工具,为他们将来更多的理解和运用中文打下了坚实的基 础,那么杨青的舞蹈则从另一个侧面向这些孩子们传授和展现了中华文化的绚丽多 彩。这 些渗透了华夏艺术经典的舞蹈必将随着这些孩子们的成长更深的融入美国及 其它国家的主流社会的文化领域。

让我们衷心感谢杨青并祝愿我们每一个人都能象杨青那样成为传播和弘扬中华文
化的使者。

亲爱的杨青,

原谅我今天才读到你这封信,因为这个邮箱的邮件太多,珍珠有时不幸会被埋没。许红在电话里问我:“你看到杨青的信了吗?还提到我们呢。”我说没有啊,只见大家谢谢来谢谢去的。她说,是杨青给大家的感谢信啊。

这段时间我一直忙乱,直到今天,才得空坐下来写几句。我知道,你们已经启程去滑雪场欢度圣诞节了。然而我相信,今天写也不晚:)

那天,我和许红看完演出后非常激动,意犹未尽,直到与大家欢聚晚餐后才得“饱足”。这是一个多么让人羡慕的团队,多么令人佩服的团体啊。我们议论着,是什么力量让这样一个近六十人的团队同心同行?结论是,首先是杨青精湛的舞艺和德才兼备的个人魅力,还有那让她锦上添花的好丈夫;其次是,所有成员们对民族舞蹈情有独钟,为追求美丽境界并把美丽带给周围的人吃苦耐劳、不惜流汗;再次是演员的家属们大力支持这项益己益人的美丽事业。

我与许红都感觉无法表达我们的激动,我们共同的感受是,只能用“完美”两字来概括这台精湛的表演。

我们准备了一个礼物,作为这场演出的纪念,但还需要一些时间才能送去,因为需要一些加工。

再次祝你们全家圣诞、新年快乐!

-许芸
