- Our Dance Teacher Jing Xiaoyang Laoshi is Moving
Jing Laoshi will leave MLCCC this fall due to family relocation. We would like to express our deepest gratitude for her contribution towards our school and center! Jing Laoshi began teaching for us in 2010. In the past 6 years, she devoted herself to Chinese folk dancing and our students. The dances she directed left great impressions on our community and beyond. Our annual Chinese New Year Gala attracted many outside audiences, largely because of the beautiful dances she and her students presented. She has also brought our dance team to many outside events.
The grace and beauty of their performances have earned our dance team a good reputation.

We are delighted to welcome Ms. Lu Zhaomi as our new Weekend School dance teacher! Below is a summary of her experiences. We will have 4 dance classes like last year: 1pm Adults’, 2pm Children’s, 3pm Children’s, 4pm Youths’.
