Inside the China National Acrobatic Troupe with star performer Di Hui | A China Icons Video

Ever wondered what it takes to be a top class acrobat? With a 2000+ year history, the Chinese have got it down to a tee. Meet Di Hui, an award winning acrobat from Harbin. Now 28, she arrived in Beijing aged 11 to join the China National Acrobatic Troupe. Considered too old to be a top class acrobat, Di Hui had to train extra hard to make it to the stage. Here, Di Hui shows us her training for two classic routines - one with plate spinning, the other with a diablo - and recalls her challenging journey to success. As well as training and performing, Di Hui also teaches the next generation of acrobats, some as young as 6. Click SUBSCRIBE to be the first to hear of new content on China Icons.
