Ma Yue is a girl from the countryside of Hebei.
When she was in the third grade, she and her classmates started to learn ballet(芭蕾舞) with the help of volunteers(志愿者) of the “Ballet on the Field” project.
In 2012, Guan Yu, a ballet teacher, set up the ballet lesson in Duancun, Hebei Province. Every Sunday, he and students of the Beijing Dance Academy went to teach children to learn ballet. With the help of them, children danced better and better.
In 2016, Ma Yue went to the Liaoning Ballet, making herself the first in the group of girls to “go out” of the countryside. Her parents were very happy.
Ballet means a lot to Ma Yue. “Life without dance,” she said, “is meaningless. Every time I meet difficulties, I’ll practise dancing. Then I’ll feel the world is great again.” Today, like the teachers who helped her in the past, Ma Yue has been to the countryside to help more children to make their ballet dream come true. A child who is watered by love will give love when he or she grows up.
