Ani, 60, is an inheritor of the traditional Reba Dance. Reba Dance is a form of drum dance, and a blend of performing arts, integrating storytelling, singing, dancing and acrobatics. In 2006, it was included in the first batch of China's national intangible cultural heritage list.
Ani learned Reba Dance from his mother when he was 14 years old, and has devoted 46 years to mastering the art. In recent years, he has trained more than 100 apprentices to preserve the art. He hopes that his students can bring the dance to more stages, sharing its unique charm with a wider audience.
