Pan Qier teacher
Convenor of Taoli World Dance Competition, Executive Director of Pan America Chinese Dance Alliance
“In the past 16 months, I have come to realize that – ‘persistence’ is an expression of love. No matter how difficult it is, teachers and students are still insisting on boring exercises and difficult online classes; Home and nature become spaces for performance, that’s the love of dance!
The team of the Pan America Chinese Dance Alliance is honored to use our “persistence” to host the Taoli World Dance Competition 2020-2021 season. This dedication is also our tribute to the overseas development of dance, especially Chinese dance. It is an unforgettable experience to accompany the dance school, teachers and students through this special period once in a century with our dedication and love. “
