Qianshou Guanyin Dance


Qianshou Kaunyin, also known as Bodhisattva with a 1,000 Hands, is a showy dance in which a bunch of dancers stand behind each other, so only the person in front is visible to the audience.

The dancers move their arms and hands so that it looks like the person in the front has a multitude moving of arms. In recent years the dance has been performed publically by 21 hearing-impaired Chinese women who move their hands and arms to the rhythm even though they are unable t hear it.
