Chinese Acrobatics

Chinese Acrobatics is one of the oldest performing arts, dating back of between 475-221BC. Chinese acrobatics can be called a national art. It is one of the art forms most popular among the Chinese people. In the past twenty some years, some acrobats in China have taken this folk art to a new height. The children, aged 6 to 15, have started their career here and will entertain the whole nation and the world over when they are mature in skills.

Despite the popularity of Chinese acrobatics in old days, it was never performed in theatres because it was looked down upon by the feudal class. However, in 1949 the people's government began developing national arts, and acrobatics gained a new life. All regions of China now have their own acrobatic troupes, and the veteran performers are now able to display their skills. Chinese acrobatics makes use of costumes, props and lighting too, which represent the optimism, resourcefulness, and courage of the Chinese people.
