Nanhai Shishan Cultural Station started the first waist drum training course. The afternoon before yesterday, the reporter saw in Shishan Shicheng Middle School that more than 30 elderly students were training with relish. According to the person in charge of Shishan Town Cultural Station, the main purpose of holding a backbone dance training class with waist drum dance as its content is to set off a new round of cultural activities with the theme of "enriching rural cultural life and promoting the construction of new villages and towns" and promote the promotion of waist drum dance among women. More than 60 students have signed up. Leisure after dinner, shopping in the square. Because of the drums, I can't help but speed up my steps. The ancient yangko is about to start again. I followed the sound, but I was surprised to find that a column of uniformly female soldiers in the center of the square were performing waist drums with great interest. The exquisite and lovely waist drum, set off by a white T-shirt and red slacks, is dazzling and irrefutably attracts everyone's attention. The performer danced lightly like a swallow. They sometimes move forward, sometimes retreat to the rear, then look at each other affectionately, play drums with each other, and immerse all their friendship and communication in silence. The light and agile drumstick flies up and down like a butterfly, drawing a beautiful arc, so the melodious drum sound flows out between the fingers. Neat and consistent steps, pure and skilled technology, seem to be comparable to a well-trained professional team. I can't help being intoxicated by it. As night falls, drums are dancing, drowsy red flowers and green grass and colorful neon lights make the surrounding colorful. However, I think the square in summer seems a lot dimmer without the dedication of the waist drum team-because the waist drum performance is a spiritual fast food for all ages. "Dad's mother-in-law loves her heart and is busy going out for a walk. Her son is earning money outside, and her grandson is admitted to a famous university, and her waist and drum are jumping happily. I am really getting happier and happier. " This is a line from the waist drum team of Qide Neighborhood Committee in Panchang, Chen Chang. The person in charge of the neighborhood committee told the reporter that in June 5438+10, with the participation of residents Wan, Du Xiaozai, Sheng Xianhong, Cao and others, they formed a waist drum team of 15 people, insisting on fitness activities every day, waving colorful silks and satins, beating gongs and drums, blowing a fresh wind for people's lives and becoming a highlight. Over the years, women of all ethnic groups and all walks of life in luxi county have celebrated their own festival-March 8th International Women's Day in different forms. Waist drum aunts wearing Belem hats, tweed clothes and red sandals became the dazzling stars of the show. Although they are old, full of energy and high morale, the game is unambiguous. Flashing waist and stepping, the small waist was inspired to be impassioned, which fascinated the audience on the side. Waist drum players come from various streets and communities in the county, with different cultural levels and different life experiences. They spontaneously came together, and their common wishes and expectations gave them a common name-Luxi University for the Aged Waist Drum Team. Debut on the street for the first time, cheerful drums and skillful skills attracted many citizens to stop. The wonderful performance won applause from the audience. Small waist drum knocks out healthy new songs, knocks out the fiery rhythm of life, knocks out the hope of spring, and shows the elegance of contemporary elderly people. Chinese overseas Chinese in Seoul prepare for the Beijing Olympic flame. On April 25th, at the Overseas Chinese Middle School in Seoul, South Korea, some children of overseas Chinese rehearsed playing waist drums and other programs. The Beijing Olympic flame will be passed in Seoul on April 27th, and thousands of overseas Chinese will cheer for the torch relay. Harbin citizens dressed in costumes danced the northeast waist drum to welcome the arrival of the Olympic flame. On the same day, the Beijing Olympic flame was passed in Harbin.

Liu Shu, the organizer of this old team, who is nearly seventy years old, told reporters, "We call this type of waist drum liberation, and every performance will attract some elderly people to watch it, because this classic waist drum celebrating the PLA's entry into the city is rare in Shenzhen today." In Yuanling, more than 20 old people dressed in red tied waist drums with bright red silk, and danced and knocked on the waist drums at the litchi park. Their faces are filled with happiness, their arms are waving, and the colored silk on the drumsticks is flying up and down. The cheerful and bright drums suddenly sounded in the park, which attracted many citizens who did morning exercises to stop and watch. A white-haired old lady in a wheelchair told reporters. She asked the nanny to put a brick under the wheel and sat there steadily for nearly half an hour. The passionate drums seemed to bring her back to that "passionate burning years". Liu Shu also innovated the waist drum performance, adding three plots: the low drums of the PLA troops ambush on all sides, the heroic attack of bullets, and finally the drums to celebrate the victory. Liu Shu expressed the hope that more people would come to Shenzhen in their spare time to relive the liberation of waist drum with them, so that this vivid form of mass literature and art could continue in the lives of ordinary people in Shenzhen.
