Waist drum and dragon flag performances
Dance entitled "Winter Plum" symbolizes uncompromising courage amidst harsh circumstances
Starting at around 10:00a.m. on January 14, the stage decorated with colorful silk lotus flowers was ready to welcome local residents in Ratchathanee. Beautiful Dafa music reverberated in the background. Some residents gathered at a big tent in front of the stage, and some moved chairs from inside their houses and placed them outside their doors to get ready for the performance. When gongs and drums started beating, and Falun Gong practitioners came onto the stage while holding long narrow flags, accompanied by rhythmic drumbeats, all attention was focused on them. Many people walked up to have photos taken with the practitioners.
During the 90-minute performance, the Falun Gong practitioners demonstrated the five sets of exercises, presented a dragon flags dance, a waist drum performance, and other programs. After the performance, the sponsor expressed his thanks to the practitioners.
