Can't blame the Taiwanese dancers for not being as good as the Chinese dancers in dances like this - the quality of training and the degree of suffering is not even comparable. However, I can still appreciate the art.
I think you should know! CCTV don't have a Shen yun Shen Yun is a well-known classical Chinese dance company that travels the world with an orchestra. Its performances include Shaolin monks, solitary Taoists, and celestial women who dance in perfect unison. Along with exploring ancient Chinese culture, Shen Yun often includes contemporary vignettes of the Chinese people’s struggle for freedom of belief under communist rule today. Its website says that Shen Yun’s artists “draw inspiration from the spiritual discipline Falun Dafa,” which is persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party. Communist Party representatives often hound Shen Yun where its performances are scheduled around the world, varying their tactics depending on the country. Direct representations to theaters in the United States are often ineffective, but in some European countries Chinese diplomats have succeeded in forcing the cancellation of Shen Yun performances, due to political pressure. One of the emcees with Shen Yun, Leeshai Lemish, maintains an extensive list of such incidents on the blog “Who’s Afraid of Shen Yun?” Common cases include consular officials threatening theaters, or sending angry letters to local politicians. In some cases, consular officials made repeated threatening phone calls to theaters in an attempt to have them cancel the performances. Carlos Iglesias, a human rights lawyer and representative of the hosting organization, the Falun Dafa Association in Spain, said in an interview, “It is regrettable that the Chinese Communist Party tries to decide what shows can be seen or not seen by the citizens of a democratic country.” Shen Yun is performing at the National Theatre of Catalonia April 9-12.
Wow....brilliant! Love it!

天哪，这跳的啥么，不伦不类……一点神韵都木有
蒙古人表示以看哭，看来蒙古族舞蹈要向台湾这个舞蹈团学习了……

网上为何无神韵的整体舞蹈的片断可看？
神韻的要錢....他們每年都有出DVD.....
示草莓生多多草園
oh，my！新唐人。。。
還是沒有神韻的好啊，神韻的舞蹈都有韻，別的藝術團都沒有韻味，所以中國古典舞才被稱為藝術
Mr McB's w Wwds Approach.
台灣不算華人，跳什麼中國舞真是不解，台灣人應該把跳原住民舞，而且這哪是什麼中國舞？這是西方舞蹈只不過加入了點東方的元素而已，中國傳統點的舞蹈在大陸民間。
此言差矣！
台湾人应该跳跳高山族舞蹈，这是哪门子舞
不叫蒙古人來真的可以麼？
kind of amateur looking..
差大陸太多各方面
