"The Chinese acrobatics has a long history and rich national flavor. It is one of the art forms most popular among the Chinese people"
In the long course of development, the Chinese acrobatic art has formed its own style. The ancient acrobatics stemmed from the people's life and had a close link with their life and productive labor. Instruments of labor like tridents, wicker rings and articles of daily use such as tables, chairs, jars, plates and bowls were used in their performances of "Flying Trident", "Balance on Chairs", "Jar Tricks", "Hoop Diving" and "Traditional Style Conjuring", and others. Wushu, Diabolo Skill, and Lion Dance, originated from folk sports and games.
The acrobatic art of New China has not only made great improvement in its contents and skill but also set up a designing and directing system, aiming at creating graceful stage images, harmonious musical accompaniment, and good supporting effects of costumes, props and lighting so as to bring about a full-fledged stage art.
The present Chinese acrobatics is full of optimism and well reflects the industry, resourcefulness, courage and undauntedness of the Chinese people.
