She has been portraying herself as a peacock on stage for more than 30 years. People are fascinated with her stage charisma and dazzling appearance.

Recently, she directed and choreographed a smash hit dance drama, which attracted a lot of attention from the public.

Claiming dance is her language, the dancer will stage a large-scale dance drama called Dynamic Yunnan in Shenzhen for five days from Sept. 1 to 5.

She is Yang Liping, a household name and renowned dancer in China.

The dance drama, titled Dynamic Yunnan, is a panoramic depiction of the colorful lives of ethnic groups from Yunnan Province through singing and dancing on stage. The dancers are farmers from all parts of Yunnan who have not received much professional training, while San Bao, a renowned music producer in China, directed the music. The drama has been an instant success since it opened in Kunming City, capital of Yunnan Province.

Based on the Dai people’s folk dance, which imitates the peacock, Yang’s dance highlights the vitality and elegance of the bird. She is the one who makes the peacock, a noble creature admired by the Dai people, live on stage.

She has won many prestigious awards for her peacock dance and has been dubbed the Peacock Princess, but her success was not easy to come by.

Born in a Bai ethnic group family about 45 years ago, Yang grew up in a divorced family. She began to support her mother at an early age, raising sheep and cattle. She also had to look after younger sisters and brothers. Dancing was the only way she could express her feelings, whether happy or sad. As every kid her age did, Yang enjoyed dancing barefoot in her spare time after work on the farm.

Soon, villagers found the girl was gifted in dancing and expected her to become the village “bimo,” a witch who danced and chanted spells to expel evil spirits. But when she was 12 years old, Yang was recruited to a local performance troupe in the Xishuangbanna Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province.

Fifteen years later, in 1986, she became well-known overnight for her individual dance Spirit of Peacock in a national contest and ever since she has been dubbed “Peacock Princess.”

Few know that Yang has never received any academic training, she even refused to be trained professionally. All her dances are derived from her ethnic roots. She said: “I didn’t get academic training, nor did I want to. Practical knowledge comes from life. The academic methodology will distort my unique vision and personality.”

In addition, she considers dancing a sacred ritual and a necessity of life, rather than a means of making a living.

“My grandmother told me that singing and dancing is one way we live and express ourselves. She is a typical example. When my grandfather died, she sang for three days and nights about his life, their love stories and mourning.

“People of ethnic groups are passionate about singing and dancing. They sing and dance to celebrate the harvest. They also sing or dance to woo loved ones. On important festivals, men and women will dance continuously. They drink wine and dance, get drunk, wake up and dance again. This is the culture where I am from. I inherited a passion for dancing, dancing is in my blood. This is the difference between me and other dancers,” Yang said.

Long hair and fingernails are known as the symbol of the Peacock Princess and are essential aspects of her dance.

“Long hair enables me to change my appearance for different scenes, and long fingernails make my fingers appear longer under the stage light,” she said. When asked what she considers essential, Yang replies concisely “dancing.”

"Flowing water in rivers does not stay but stones do." Yang used the song of Bai ethnic group to make an analogy of her attitude about love. “If you love him, you must make him happy. If he doesn’t love you, you should not hang on to him. I am very lucky to love my husband and have his love. He isn't mad at me because I don’t want to have children. I have no regrets and will not in the future. My life passes by through dance, the art I am dedicated to,” Yang said.

Beginning Wednesday, Yang will lead various ethnic group performers to stage a large-scale dance drama conceived and produced by her.

To prepare the dance drama Yang visited nearly every village in Yunnan for over two years to look for talented performers. At first, she was not clear about what she wanted the whole thing to look like.

She had to follow her artistic imagination and weave the plot step by step. She also encountered financial problems for this dance drama and had to sell her house in Dali. But Yang eventually overcame all her difficulties and created a landmark work that will be written into China’s history of performance art.
