*Phoenix is anxiously preparing for our next cultural exchange to MONGOLIA via Beijing and Shandong province in June, 2010!

These trips would not be possible without the help of our generous supporters. Check out information on our next fundraising event at http://2010pdcgala.shutterfly.com/

 

Cultural Exchange Tours

The PDC Curriculum Includes Cultural Exchange Tours to China, which, in the past, have offered dance exchanges with both professional and amateur dance institutions in Hong Kong, Kunming, Beijing, Mongolia, Shandong, Guizhou, and Guangzhou. In addition, during the summer of 1994, PDC was invited to perform at an international dance conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for the Showcase Event.

The cultural exchange tours enable PDC dancers to not only visit both professional and amateur dance academies but also provide a first-hand experience of the dances and culture of China. Some of the institutions visited include the noted Beijing Dance Academy, Central Nationalities University, Kunming Art Academy and the Mongolian Art Institute.

Welcomers at each exchange location are eager to both share what they know and learn about their far-travelling visitors. In Shanghe of Shandong Province, the entire village came out to greet the Hawai'i entourage and a cast of over 100 dancers performed an exciting series of Shangdong Guzi Yangge (Shangdong Drum Dance).
