Fifty-two dancers participated in the final rounds of the 9th NTD International Classical Chinese Dance Competition in New York state on Sept. 5, bringing the lost dance skills alive on the stage and participating in the revival of traditional culture.

The classical Chinese dance competition is one in a series of international cultural and arts events aimed at promoting traditional culture. In China, this culture has been all but destroyed by the Chinese Communist Party over the past several decades. The events are hosted by NTD.
