Balancing act

According to an old Chinese saying, "Insiders look for mastery of the trade and outsiders want a spectacle." This summer the talented members of the Wudouzhai Stilt Dancing troupe will surely satisfy experienced dancers with their precision and newcomers with their awe-inspiring rhythmic routines.

The best part is, most of their performances in Beijing are free and open to the public.

During the Olympics, the troupe performs daily at Grand View Garden Park, one of the "Beijing Live" sites, from 9:30 am to 10:30 am until Aug 23.
