Story of China's Ballet Queen

From a talented girl to a ballet queen, Tan Yuan Yuan spent decades earning international awards. But this fairytale wasn't always set in stone. At the age of 11, she was admitted to the Shanghai ballet dance school. While her father disapproved of her choice, her mother encouraged her to pursue her dream. So they tossed a coin to decide her fate, and the result landed in her favor. But Tan began to learn dancing nearly a year later than her peers. This prompted self-doubt to the point she thought she was an ugly duckling. She explains how that coin toss changed the trajectory of her life.

What a classy professional dancer and interviewer. An inspiration.

[@pertelote4526]

I do admire how well-spoken, articulate and elegant this lady is. I find the comments (?) at the bottom of the screen unnecessary and distracting, though. I want to focus solely on the interviewee, not on the gratuitous repetition of her words.

what a great interviewer. What a great interview. What a gorgeous dancer.

Amazing! Other-worldly! Doesn't seem possible the human body can move like that but Tan Yuan Yuan does.

[@Janetia56]

Its good to have taken the full risks of Ballet Dancing to the extent to show that ballet dancing is not risky or dangerous to do for a girl or any girls wanting to do Ballet Dance and is not the first daring ballet dancer

[@buteravalente9332]

Dude no one said she was ok so stop hating!

[@thomasguan1697]

It is not good to say Ballet Dance has no risks and everything has a risk

[@thomasguan1697]

China had no ballet dancing its the truth like a ception of the truth

If she was white she would have more ads worldwide & more media press, more pics on cover of magazines.
