Shanghai troupe leader brings ‘silent disco’ to granny line dancing
Large groups of choreographed dancers, often called “damas”, with speakers blaring, a leader chanting and participants shouting and laughing, are a common sight in urban China’s public parks. But in Anting Town’s Old Street in Jiading District, in the northwestern part of Shanghai, passersby and commuters may double-take when they see a large group of residents primarily in their twilight years performing choreographed dances in apparent silence. No, the damas have not simply memorised the steps; they are participating in a “silent disco” version of line dancing. According to Shanghai Daily, Dou Xiangxin, the leader of a 200-strong dance crew called “Jack”, named after his internet persona, was having tensions with local residents over the size and scale of his 200-person-strong troupe. Because the group is so large, the music has to be extremely loud so people in the back can dance to the beats, creating problems with people who live nearby.

Chonburi area grandmother holds celebration of life for her funeral as final wish with dancing-Video
Pattaya- The following video was taken earlier this week and is posted with permission. A 75-year-old local grandmother in the Chonburi area passed away after a long battle with an illness this past weekend but had time to make a final request…a joyous celebration of life and not a sad memorial. She loved dancing and music even up to her last years and this is the result as her friends and local temple followed her last wish. This sort of memorial is somewhat rare for Thailand but common in some other countries which is what inspired the woman. No commentary as it would ruin the music and atmosphere. ... » Learn More about Chonburi area grandmother holds celebration of life for her funeral as final wish with dancing-Video
Despite cheapskate digital audiences, a dance company persists in the pandemic
SINGAPORE: Kuik Swee Boon was visibly emotional as he stood on stage at the Festive Arts Theatre in Our Tampines Hub. It was February, and it was the T.H.E Dance Company’s first live performance in 14 months. “It’s been so long. When we first entered the venue, we were overwhelmed … It felt like homecoming,” the company’s founder and artistic director said as he looked at the empty seats that would soon be filled. While an audience of only 150 could be present in the 400-seat theatre, coupled with a live stream on Our Tampines Hub’s Facebook page, he was content. “All of us even did a swab test before the show, to show everyone that we care about the safety of dancers and audience members,” said the 48-year-old. “We also wanted to make a statement that the arts can survive even in such tough times.” One year ago, the day his company announced its line-up for the M1 Contact Contemporary Dance Festival was the day Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced the ... » Learn More about Despite cheapskate digital audiences, a dance company persists in the pandemic
‘We have Indian dancers’: ShopBack responds to backlash over ‘Indian dance’ in TikTok ad
ShopBack's latest music video might have dropped on April 1, but not many took it as a joke. The video, meant to promote its mega sale and cashback mechanisms, featured brand ambassador and local comedian Kumar and TikTok influencer Kevin Tristan dancing to an eclectic beat. It included a segment where the pair and several backup dancers donned traditional Indian attire and repeated the campaign tagline over Bollywood-esque music. While the full video garnered praise for its catchiness on Facebook and Instagram, a 15-second cut of Tristan's solo on TikTok struck a nerve with netizens. They called the clip problematic and slammed the company, saying "just because they have one token Indian celebrity, they created this fake 'Bollywood' song?" A quick check on ShopBack's marketing collaterals showed no themes related to Indian heritage, culture or upcoming festivals except being fronted by Kumar. "That ad, that ain't it yall," a user wrote. In response to the ... » Learn More about ‘We have Indian dancers’: ShopBack responds to backlash over ‘Indian dance’ in TikTok ad
Samurai dance teacher moves online as Tokyo Olympics bans foreign spectators
TOKYO: There was a time when Koshiro Minamoto had hoped to welcome foreign tourists during the Olympics by introducing them to the arts of the samurai from a classroom in central Tokyo. But when the Tokyo 2020 Organising Committee decided last year that the Games would be postponed, and then last month that they would be held without overseas spectators, he was forced to scrap his plans. Minamoto, who has studied martial arts for 35 years, is known for his invention of Bugaku, or "warrior dance", a unique type of performance art that combines the styles of samurai sword play with the song and dance of classical Japanese drama. READ: 'Everything evaporated': Olympics' overseas fan ban hits Japan tourism He has been teaching Bugaku to foreign tourists for the past 10 years, also introducing students to aspects of samurai lifestyle, such as the armour they used to wear. Minamoto had hoped his business would thrive during the Tokyo Olympics. He spent around US$45,000 on ... » Learn More about Samurai dance teacher moves online as Tokyo Olympics bans foreign spectators
K-pop diets: How Blackpink’s Jennie, BTS’ V and IU stay in shape – from ‘not stressing’ to avoiding salt and Bae Suzy’s ‘penguin dance’
We can all probably agree that we want to be more like our favourite K-pop idols – especially in our looks. One of the easiest ways we can follow our heroes is to adopt a healthier diet . With the summer coming, let’s take a look to see if we can learn something from how the stars eat to help us get into shape. 1. BTS’ V has a “special” food habit If you are a real Army – the official name of BTS’ fans – you are probably already aware that V has never talked about following any type of diet to keep his body fit and trim. He seems to be blessed in the way he boasts of indulging in his favourite foods whenever he wants. But how does he stay fit then? During a live-stream on Naver, V shared his “special” food habit – not stressing while eating. He suggested just enjoying the experience and said thinking happy thoughts while eating would help you not to gain weight. This seems a little like nonsense, so perhaps his real secret was revealed during the same live-stream, when ... » Learn More about K-pop diets: How Blackpink’s Jennie, BTS’ V and IU stay in shape – from ‘not stressing’ to avoiding salt and Bae Suzy’s ‘penguin dance’
Maids neglect elderly and young charges as they dance at Bukit Batok playground
Every weekday morning, they gathered at a playground in Bukit Batok to practise their dance moves. With many dancing in public for TikTok videos nowadays, the sight wouldn't be surprising to residents at Bukit Batok Street 25, except that the group of women were domestic helpers who had their charges — both young and elderly — with them as they danced. In photos shared by a Lianhe Wanbao reader on April 10, the women appeared to be busy dancing while two elderly men were left sitting in the fitness corner behind them. A young boy was also seen playing at the playground without anyone watching over him.
