Initially a student of Chinese dance, Yuanyuan had a chance to try ballet and fell in love with it. She studied at the Shanghai Theatre Academy where she drew inspiration from her teachers. Also, when she was young she saw many dance videos and they all inspired her. Her greatest achievement to date was coming fourth in the Cape Town International Ballet Competition and her golds in the classical dance and modern dance awards.
She has already danced in Le Corsaire, Giselle, Sleeping Beauty and The Nutcracker and the role she would particularly like to dance is Giselle which she thinks is very beautiful.
Yuanyuan's favourite dancer is Alina Cojocaru.
Her immediate ambitions is to enter the Dutch National Ballet and in the longer term she sees herself as a ballet master.
Outside ballet Yuanyuan likes music and singing.
I look forward to seeing Yuanyuan dance and I wish her well with her career.
