A display of unity where love for dance is vital

With inclusiveness at its core, Beijing Body On&On Cultural Exchange Center has been hosting the annual Luminous Festival, in tandem with the UK-China Disability Arts Forum.

This year's Luminous Festival featured a Beijing edition of Gala, the inclusive dance production by French choreographer Jerome Bel, first premiered in 2015.

Following the production's original structure, this iteration was performed by 20 Beijing residents of different backgrounds, ages and occupations, who went onstage one by one and gave their own demonstration of ballet, waltz, Michael Jackson's moonwalk, among other dance styles.
