BeijingDance/LDTX was born out of a controversial time of cultural change in China, becoming the country's first non-governmental and independent professional dance company. Founded by veteran choreographers and a new generation of dancers in China, BeijingDance/LDTX mixes Chinese traditions and Western contemporary movement styles to create captivating and technically breathtaking performances.
