    A Delicate Balance Negotiating Isolation and Globalization in the Burmese Performing Arts Catherine Diamond If you walk on and on, you get to your destination. If you question much, you get your information. If you do not sleep and idle, you preserve your life! (Maung Htin Aung 1959:87) So go the three lines of wisdom offered to the lazy student Maung Pauk Khaing in the well- known eponymous folk tale. A group of impoverished village youngsters, led by their teacher Daw Khin Thida, adapted the tale in 2007 in their first attempt to perform a play. From a well-to-do family that does not understand her philanthropic impulses, Khin Thida, an English teacher by profession, works at her free school in Insein, a suburb of Yangon (Rangoon) infamous for its prison. The shy students practiced first in Burmese for their village audience, and then in English for some foreign donors who were coming to visit the school. Khin Thida has also bought land in Bagan (Pagan) and is building a culture center there, hoping to attract the street children who currently pander to tourists at the site’s immense network of temples.

  • Acro Vs. Gymnastics: What's the Difference?
    Acro vs. Gymnastics: What’s the Difference? The simple answer is, there are LOTS of differences! If you’ve ever watched a gymnastics floor routine, you’ll notice the hard-hitting, advanced tumbling lines, executed with power and precision. Gymnasts focus on “sticking the landing”, because every fall, wobble, or off-step is a deduction to their overall score and can be the difference between winning and losing. Acro Dance is an art form specifically designed for dancers. Acro has softer, more lyrical-looking lines, with emphasis on lengthening “through” the tricks and holding beautiful balances with interesting variations. The focus is on seamlessly blending acrobatics with dance, and avoiding obvious preparations before each trick. In short, Gymnastics is a sport; Acro Dance is an art form. Gymnasts train on a sprung-floor, with actual springs built into the mats: a forgiving surface to repeatedly practice advanced tumbling passes on over and over again. Acro Dancers perform on a hard stage, and must train the body to withstand the impact of the floor. Dancers don’t get the “rebound” action out of a hard floor like gymnasts do out of a spring-floor. Therefore, dancers train to get the necessary lift from their bodies, and emphasis on a strong “hub” (hips, glutes, core) is a must. Gymnastics tricks are usually performed in a “hollow-body” position (think: laying down on the back in a “banana” position with the arms and legs hovering off the ground; chin tucked; pulling in through the core). Acro tricks are usually performed in an “open-body” position (think: laying down on the stomach in a “superman” position with the arms and legs lengthening and hovering off the ground; chin open and looking past the fingertips).

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, safety remains our top priority. We are diligently monitoring official information from health authorities, such as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
