Yang Liping Artistic Director/Chief Choreographer
Crowned as "Peacock Princess" and "Dance Goddess", Yang Liping is a Bai ethnic native of Dali, Yunnan. She joined into Xishuangbanna Song and Dance Ensemble in 1971. She starred in the large-scale ethnic dance drama Peacock Princess which won the First Prize of Performance in Yunnan Province in 1979. In 1986, she created and performed solo Spirit of Peacock which made a name for herself. Spirit of Peacock not only won the First Prize of Creation and ranked the 1st place of Performance in the Second National Dance Competition, but also was staged on Closing Ceremony in the 11th Asian Games in 1990. In 1994, Spirit of Peacock won the Gold Medal of Dance Classics of the Chinese Nation across the 20th Century.

Three grand singing & dance sets created by Yang Liping, i.e., Dynamic Yunnan, Sound of Yunnan and Tibetan Mystery, bear plentiful fruits in the tours across China and all over the world. In 2004, Dynamic Yunnan won five gold medals in "Lotus Award Dance Contest" (one of the highest-level dance contests in China).

Yang Liping visits around the world, stages special dance performances, and devotes to cultural exchanges. She leaves footprints in Singapore, the Philippines, the US, Canada and Japan. In the Chinese Mainland, she is also the first dancer performing in Taiwan, China.
