"We're a traditional Chinese dance group, and today we are performing 12 different dances, and we have kids ages 5 to all the way to senior year in high school," says Bailey Zhang, with the Love of China School of Dance."It's very nice to share our culture to other people and just share the cheer around and allow this to teach people more about our Chinese culture," says Zhang. Austin resident Greg Wallinger says this was a great way to teach his daughter about their Chinese heritage. "My mom is a first generation, she came from China, Taiwan and through her and her mom I got to experience the Chinese traditions," says Wallinger. For many families, quality time is a tradition during Lunar New Year and watching traditional Chinese dance.
