The day began at the Beijing Dance Academy. We were there to view the practice sessions of the dance students as well as for our girls to be trained in some dance techniques.
Watching the students during their rigorous and inspriring practice of the Han Dynasty dance.
After watching the dance practice, our girls had the chance to be coached by these students on some basic cultural dance skills. Our girls really enjoyed themselves and benefitted from the one and a half hour long coaching and interaction session.

After lunch, our pupils continued with their training session with a dance instructor, focusing on the finer points of hand movements in a dance.
A certificate of participation was given to each pupil in recognition of her efforts in the dance workshops during the past 3 days. Their hard work had really paid off!
The girls are really looking forward to a day of sight-seeing at the Great Wall of China and shopping at Wang Fujin's Xinghua Bookstore and Xiu Shui Street tomorrow before they head back home at midnight!
