Shopping in Midvalley Megamall, we came across an acrobatics performance as part of the Chinese New Year Celebrations.

The first set of performers we saw were quite young, and I thought it might have just been a local talent school or cultural society. But it soon became obvious that this group was something else. They were truly world class. We found out later, it was a visiting troupe from Guangxi.


Moving to a higher angle from the second floor. It was hard to find a decent vantage point as the crowd gathered.


A wider view showing the watching crowd.

These guys were the highlight. They had an amazing technique for "running" up the ropes, wrapping the ropes around each leg as they went.
