The 3,000 dancers taking part in the 2012 International DanceSport Festival are by no means the only ones moving to music in Chengdu. People dancing in squares and other public places are a very common sight all around China. Zheng Lunfa, a Chengdu resident in his eighties, is a regular fixture on one of the city plazas. He says he likes to practise belly dancing in order to stay in shape.
