"I see my younger self in these kids. I believe that one day, they will be so proud of China and the skills they've learned here. This knowledge will make them travel all over the world and meet different people," Kavita said.

Since 2002, Wuqiao Acrobatic Art School has trained about 700 foreign acrobats from more than 30 countries, with a majority of them hailing from Africa.
