9th NTD International Classical Chinese Dance Competition Final & Awards Ceremony

One of the key goals of communism is to destroy traditional culture. When the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) came to power, it set out to destroy all forms of tradition—including the arts. The Chinese regime has done this deliberately to disconnect the Chinese people from their heritage and the divine. The NTD International Classical Chinese Dance Competition—now in its ninth year—seeks to showcase the ancient art form of classical Chinese dance, and to allow the world to enjoy its splendor. The competition was held in New York state Sept. 2–5. The Epoch Times and sister media outlet NTD livestreamed the final round of the competition, as well as the awards ceremony, at 1 p.m. ET on Sept. 5.
