In a remote alley on Yujiahu Road on the outskirts of Wuhan, in a simple but artistic dance studio, 46-year-old Mr. Guo Leng is engrossed in guiding a group of energetic children.
Although he is already a successful businessman worth millions, his love for dance does not seem to have diminished with the passage of time.
He looked at each student with those affectionate eyes, and from time to time he stretched out his hands to correct the slightly jerky dance postures.
Some children may be frustrated by his strict demands, but many more regain their confidence with his generous encouragement.
In this way, under the superb guidance of Guo Leng, the beautiful dance moves have been perfectly presented again and again. The surrounding houses have long since fallen silent in the night, but this studio is still brightly lit, like an eternal light.
"As long as there are children who come here with eager expectations, he will not hesitate to devote himself to teaching, carefully guiding and without reservation.
A parent who came to pick up her child said with emotion.
Indeed, Guo Leng is like a tireless machine, whether it is the correction of movements or the teaching of theoretical knowledge, he will do his best, with the fullest patience and the most meticulous attitude, repeat over and over again, until every student can interpret the dance movements smoothly.
No one has ever seen him stop for a moment because of fatigue, and he has never had the slightest slackness.
"Normally, each class lasts only two and a half hours, but Mr. Guo never gives us less than five or six hours.
"The waiting process is often exhausting, and sometimes you even take a nap directly on the floor of the dance studio."
However, even so, when they see the progress their children have made in the field of dance, their hearts are filled with endless gratitude. It is precisely because of Guo Leng's unwavering and almost obsessive love that generations of outstanding dance talents have been cultivated.
Sometimes parents can't help but ask him curiously, why he is so tireless, and Guo Leng always smiled indifferently and replied: "Dance is all I have, my dream, and my life."
Time goes back to the 70s of the last century, when Guo Leng was just an ordinary teenager born in Yinchuan, Ningxia and from an ordinary family. However, from an early age, he developed a unique love and talent for dance.
Whenever a beautiful musical melody is played, he is able to immerse himself in the fascinating world of dance, dancing alone to the beat of the music.
The light and agile beauty of the dance seemed to make people see the heavenly fairy descending on the world, and instantly captured the attention of all the audience present.
Many teachers were full of praise for this and gave him high praise and full affirmation.
"This teenager will definitely make outstanding achievements in the field of dance in the future!" A mentor prophesied with confidence.
However, Guo Leng's parents did not agree with his choice of career in dance. In the context of the relatively conservative era, many people still have some prejudice against boys learning dance.
They feared that their son might become too feminine as a result, and were reluctant to send him to a dance school for more in-depth training.
In the face of strong opposition from his parents, Guo Leng never gave up his dream. He pleaded and begged every day, even to the point of obsession, and finally succeeded in touching the hearts of his parents and making them change their minds.
Since then, Guo Leng has stepped into the door of the dance class, like a child walking into a candy paradise, and the whole person is filled with endless joy and concentration.
It is worth mentioning that he was the only boy in that class, and he was the only boy in the class of more than 30 students.
However, this unique environment did not dampen his love for dance, but instead inspired him to study harder. When dancing among the girls, he is like a fresh breeze, free and elegant, and his light and elegant dancing posture is intoxicating.
The teachers were even more amazed by his dancing talent.
Finally, with the full support of his parents, Guo Leng, who was only nine years old, bravely signed up for the extremely competitive entrance selection competition of Beijing Dance Academy.
According to rumors, more than 20,000 people participated in the competition, and in the end there were only 20 places, which shows the fierce competition.
However, with his otherworldly strength and talent, he successfully overcame many difficulties, successfully passed this severe test, and officially embarked on the path of dance of his dreams.
After being successfully admitted to the Beijing Dance Academy, Guo Leng firmly chose to specialize in classical ballet. He is fully committed to the study and training of dance, and constantly strives to improve his professional skills.
However, as time passed, Guo Leng gradually realized that his body's flexibility was gradually decreasing. Due to differences in physiology, men are often not comparable to women in this regard.
This undoubtedly brought great challenges to his dance practice.
However, he did not give up on himself because of this, but upheld the determination to become more and more resolute, treated every training rigorously, invested several times more time and sweat than others every day, and worked tirelessly to maintain the softness and agility of his body, all because of this, he could shine on the stage.
It is precisely because of this firm and persistent belief in dance that Guo Leng has been able to represent the school in many competitions and has won many successes, and has undoubtedly become a veritable "light of Northern Dance".
At the age of 17, he won the favor of the internationally renowned Oriental Song and Dance Troupe with his outstanding performance, and he was honored to be a member of the troupe. There, he was fortunate to get acquainted with Yang Liping, a dance master he has always admired.
Yang Liping gave high praise and appreciation to Guo Leng. After many in-depth exchanges, she was keenly aware of Guo Leng's outstanding dancing talent, and without hesitation, she decided to accept him as a closed disciple and personally teach the essence of dance.
Under the careful teaching of his teacher, Guo Leng's dancing skills have become increasingly exquisite and have reached an unprecedented peak. Soon after, he made huge waves in the dance world with a vivid "Peacock Dance", and his name was deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone who loves dance.
Since then, Guo Leng has frequently appeared on major stages and has become the undisputed "Dancing Hero". The audience was captivated by his graceful, ethereal, chic and ethereal dancing.
Even Teacher Yang Liping herself was full of praise for this closed disciple.
Just when Guo Leng's stage career was in full swing, fate played a cruel joke on him. In 2000, during a rehearsal of a difficult dance move, Guo Leng unfortunately fell and fell, resulting in a serious strain of knee ligaments.
After being rushed to the hospital, Guo Leng's injuries were painfully diagnosed by leading experts - he could no longer recover from his original state, which meant that he was destined to wave goodbye to his beloved stage.
This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Guo Leng's dream of dancing, and he has fallen into an unprecedented trough and despair. Day after day, he wept alone in his room, almost wanting to give up all hope.
The stage was his whole life, and without it, he could barely survive.
Just when he was at a low point in his life and his will was sluggish, his mentor, Ms. Yang Liping, once again extended a warm helping hand to him. With her otherworldly wisdom and perseverance, she gradually resolved Guo Leng's deep troubles and rekindled his courage and determination to work hard.
Ms. Yang Liping affectionately and firmly admonished him: "The stage is just a medium to show the charm of dance, what really matters is your eternal passion for dance art."
Over time, Guo Leng gradually regained his confidence in dancing and was determined to create a new chapter in his dance career and continue his love of dance in a new way.
So, without hesitation, he decided to devote himself to the field of dance education and established his own dance studio on Yujiahu Road on the outskirts of Wuhan.
Although this path is far from the glorious achievements of the past, Guo Leng has never seen it as a "retreat road". On the contrary, in his heart, being able to pass on his dance philosophy to more young students is the greatest source of happiness.
Since then, this unpretentious studio has stood on the shores of Yujia Lake, which has become a new temple for Guo Leng's dance dreams.
Although he failed to realize his ambition to become a professional dancer, Guo Liangliang poured all his passion into education. In this unpretentious dance studio, he uncovers the talents and potential of his students with a unique insight, and nurtures each student with a rigorous and meticulous attitude.
"As long as the students can concentrate on their studies, Mr. Guo will teach the true meaning of dance without reservation. One parent praised with emotion.
For those students who have a casual attitude and are not attentive to study, Guo Leng can be described as iron-faced and selfless, and will never tolerate it.
On one occasion, when a student inadvertently defiled a shoe print on the floor, Guo Leng immediately threw his sneakers out of the classroom in a fit of rage to remind everyone of the importance of concentration.
Xing Nan, an outstanding student, recalled: "Although Mr. Guo seemed extremely strict, he did have a unique eye for material selection and did an excellent job of guiding students."
Whenever a student makes progress in dance skills, Guo Leng is always ecstatic as a child grows into an adult. On the other hand, if a student fails to improve after several lessons, he will never be merciful and expelled from the classroom.
"Step into my class, and everything belongs to me!" Guo Leng often expressed his determination to the students in a resolute tone. He deeply dislikes students who come with a fluke mentality and just for the purpose of entertainment, Guo Leng has always believed that only those who truly love and respect the art of dance can truly carry forward its legacy.
Therefore, despite the fact that each class lasts for five to six hours, Guo has never slackened. Like a machine that never stops, with endless patience and delicacy, he corrects the students' dance moves over and over again until they are able to show the charm of dance smoothly and freely.
Sometimes, parents waiting to pick up their children are exhausted outside the dance room and even take a short break directly on the floor. However, the moment they witness the remarkable progress made in their dancing skills, their hearts are filled with endless gratitude.
Whenever people talk about the name Guo Leng, whether it is his students or their parents, they will not hesitate to praise his firm belief in the dance career and the careful guidance of his students.
This devotion to the art of dance has long been deeply imprinted in the depths of his soul and has become a beautiful background color that will never fade in his life.
"I still vividly remember that time, due to my negligence, I accidentally defiled the floor with shoe prints, and Mr. Guo actually threw my dirty sneakers out in front of everyone.
Xing Nan, an outstanding student, recalled with a smile, "However, Mr. Guo did have a unique eye for material selection and performed extremely well in guiding students.
Even after his years, this former "dance hero" is still committed to passing on the artistic treasure of ballet. Whenever he sees his students making progress in the field of dance, he is ecstatic as if he has been reborn.
On the other hand, if a student is depressed in class, he will give a warning as seriously as a strict teacher does to a naughty child.
Parents also expressed their sincere admiration for Guo Leng's passion and dedication to dance. "Normally, each class is only two and a half hours, but Ms. Guo never ends the class early, and often needs to spend five or six hours before he stops.
"The waiting process is often exhausting and I have to take a break on the floor outside the dance room.
Indeed, in the classroom under the guidance of the master Guo Leng, there is no perfunctory and relaxed attitude. Like an engine that never tires, he devotes himself to the delicate movements of each student with endless perseverance and rigorous standards until they can display their most beautiful posture without flaws.
However, he is even more admired for his dedication to his students, and his ardent and eternal passion for dance, which, despite the fact that the years have crawled over his face and brought him to the age of knowing his destiny, he is still a staunch believer who does his best to impart knowledge in the classroom every day.
"Mr. Guo often works late into the night. "Many parents of the students are deeply touched by the fact that whenever they come to pick up and drop off their children, the studio is always brightly lit, and Ms. Guo is still engrossed in guiding the students.
It is this perseverance and determination that has made Guo Leng today's brilliant achievementsAlthough he regrettably missed the pinnacle of the stage in his life journey, through his education, he has successfully passed on the art of ballet from generation to generation and realized his lifelong dream.
