This is a short video of a Chinese dancer dancing. There may or may not be a story behind it, but I’ve invented one anyway.
She opens as a cobra, expressing all the sinuous grace and immaculate
precision expected of the Queen of Serpents. And then she wakes into the Goddess
of the Wind, pulling it expertly this way and that while expressing the subtle
yet childlike attributes of a playful spirit.
Fanciful, maybe, but it’s how I see it, and it’s why I watch
this frequently but never, ever watch Strictly
Come Dancing.
