Hebei students get ballet lessons

Students from 12 suburban elementary and middle schools are being taught ballet thanks to a cooperation between The National Ballet of China and The One, a charity project that introduces arts to students in elementary and middle schools. From Jan 15 to 17, the two organizations taught ballet to students in North China's Hebei province. Some students said that it was their first time learning ballet. Launched by China Social Entrepreneur Foundation in 2015, The One has been promoting arts among 17,893 students by introducing related courses such as dancing by the end of 2016.
