ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Xijun Fu was born in QingDao, China and began his dance training at the distinguished Beijing Dance Academy. He was viewed as a special talent at an early age and proved his gift by receiving the highest marks in his class throughout his academy career. He was rewarded for his hard work and dedication at age 18 when he was asked to join China’s premiere ballet company, the National Ballet of China, as a soloist dancer. He was then continued to excel and impress everyone in the dance world with his skill and performance. 

Fu then left China in 1985 to become a guest artist in a cultural exchange program with Ballet DE Santiago in Chile under the direction of former ABT star Ivan Nagy. Fu returned to China a year later with the intent to focus his energy on becoming an instructor at the Beijing Dance Academy.
