成功从来都不是偶然!这对华裔姐妹之所以收获雷鸣掌声,连新西兰著名的芭蕾舞团的导师们都惊叹不已,是因为她们除了有热情,更珍贵的是她们的努力与坚持。
姐姐朱芳卉(Yolanda)3岁多开始学习芭蕾舞,今年14岁,芭蕾舞龄超10年。妹妹朱芳菲(Jovina)4岁开始学芭蕾舞如今12岁,芭蕾舞龄8年。
姐妹俩在十多年前有幸遇到两位80多岁的古典宫廷芭蕾舞剧的专业老师,从此就她们开始接受严格专业的芭蕾舞训练,多年来,每周一到周五放学后坚持学习。而孩子的妈妈为了配合好孩子们学好芭蕾舞,还让她们学钢琴、小提琴,乐理、形体训练等课程,周末也都要到晚上9点才结束学习。既便是风雨,姐妹俩也不愿错过每一节课。
姐妹俩通过不懈的努力,姐姐终于在一年前考入新西兰位于惠灵顿的国家芭蕾舞团成为了后备演员,因为还要完成学业,她每年还要穿梭在两城市之间。而妹妹也成功的考入了世界排名前列的澳大利亚芭蕾舞学校。在她们完美的舞姿里,在她们收获喝彩声中,在她们荣耀载誉时,这些都包含了她们的甜酸苦辣和与家人的付出。
记者采访了姐姐朱芳卉,她的一席话让记者无比的感动。她说:”我从小热爱芭蕾舞,我有今天首先要感谢妈妈为了成全我们,不惜物力,不辞辛劳。还要感谢芭蕾舞导师们对我们精心的栽培,以及对我们的包容与爱。我们姐妹俩会继续沿着这个艺术领域发展下去,绝不辜负导师们对我们的期望”。短短几句话,表达了孩子们的感恩与继续努力的决心。

看到姐妹俩的那一双双被磨破了的舞鞋,就足以让人感受到了她们付出的心血和汗水,她们的成功是不是偶然的。记者也不由得想起了若干年前中国的官媒”人民网”和”侨网”在发布新西兰报道时,也分别选用了关于朱芳卉展现唯美舞功的照片。
她们的美不仅仅在舞台上,她们在生活上的举手投足,无不绽放出她们舞者的光彩。无不凝聚了她们对完美的追求和严于律己的刻苦。功夫不负有心人,十年磨一剑,勤勉刻苦结硕果,这些年来,在新西兰皇家芭蕾舞协会下设的正式比赛中,姐妹俩获得的冠军奖杯竟有几百个奖项之多!她们是何等的让人骄傲!
姐妹俩分别在多个大型的芭蕾舞剧中担任主演,著名的有:《Oliver》(又名雾都孤儿)《安妮》《玩具盒子》《不管天气如何》《卖火柴的小女孩》等等。
姐姐Yolanda还参加了中国国务院侨办由众多国内外明星参演的《文化中国四海同春》大型慰侨演出,演出芭蕾舞独舞《彩上人间》,该舞蹈还在亚太电影节上和在第二十届世界潮团大会上演出过。姐姐Yolanda还多次带领妹妹Jovina和小伙伴们给养老院的老人们表演芭蕾舞,为孤寡老人送去爱心和欢乐。
姐妹俩品学兼优,专攻芭蕾舞外,各方面也都平衡发展,还兼学了钢琴小提琴乐理绘画手工等课程,游泳、水球、篮球、体操,田径等在市中小学生比赛中都有好成绩,姐姐Yolanda还获得了中学生法语讲演三等奖。
然而这些,跟她们的妈妈Michelle无私奉献是分不开的,为了有足够的钱能供孩子们参加各种昂贵的培训和比赛,她最多的时候打三份工,在大学全职做管理人员,兼职IBM的工作,业余还为芭蕾舞学校缝制舞服,还要接送孩子,基本从早上6点出门,到晚上9点后才回到家。她每天拖着一身的疲惫,但却无怨无悔并乐在其中,就是为了给孩子们提供最好的学习条件。在这,我们也要为这位伟大的母亲报以热烈的掌声。
现在姐妹俩都到了为适应专业在技术上必须提高层次臻于完美的阶段,所以每个周末都要请两三个新西兰著名老师分段上单独指导课。姐姐Yolanda现在年龄和级别,已经开始参加国际芭蕾舞比赛了,所有出境和境内学习和参赛的费用,芭蕾舞和相关的各种学习训练课程,服装和比赛的费用都很昂贵,姐妹两个用在芭蕾舞和芭蕾舞相关课程所费不菲,累计已花费几十万纽币。
芭蕾舞演员是世上最美的舞者,朱芳卉和朱芳菲俩姐妹为艺术而付出,她们如梦似幻,美若天仙的舞姿带给了观众无与伦比的艺术享受,值得我们敬仰和钦佩。她们在舞房留下的汗水和日复一日的磨练,是她们成长的最好明证。我们相信,这两颗耀眼的芭蕾新星,在她们自身的不懈努力和追求下,必将在世界的芭蕾舞台上发出最璀璨迷人的光芒。
Chinese sisters Zhu Fanghui and Zhu Fangfei’ssuperb ballet skills interpreted the soul of ballet and shocked the audience!
Recently, at a top ballet school performance in New Zealand, Chinese sisters Zhu Fanghui and Zhu Fangfei, who played the leading roles in the dance dramas “Pandora’s Box” and “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” respectively, won applause from the audience their superb ballet skills sounds and screams.
It is understood that this top ballet performance in New Zealand is the year-end performance of the top ballet school in New Zealand: PHILIPPA CAMPBELL SCHOOL OF BALLET. On the day of the performance, many media and ballet lovers were attracted to watch, and even the instructors of the most famous ballet company in New Zealand also came to see their splendor.
The elder sister Zhu Fanghui starred in the play “Pandora’s Box” as a Greek girl who got a carved box. With her light and elegant dancing posture and demeanor, she fully displayed the story’s emotions, sorrows, joys, and desires. Every movement of hersis full of nature and agility, with dreamlike grace. The charm brought out by her toes, and the characters’ sense of drama and aesthetics are like a holy light, perfectly presented by the dancers. It brings the audience to the ultimate palace of ballet and integrates into the fairyland-like story.
The younger sister Zhu Fangfei starred as the magic apprentice Zhu Yue in “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.”The characters are portrayed vividly. The plot of the “apprentice” being illegal is vividly displayed in front of the audience. Throughout the performance, she lingered left and right, combined with cross and cross, her playful expression and exquisite dancing posture combined with hardness and softness. She danced calmly and comfortably as if her heart was traveling in an uncultivated space, showing her stage skills and bringing laughter and joy to the audience.
Success never happens by accident! The reason the Chinese sisters received thunderous applause, and even the instructors of the famous New Zealand ballet troupe were amazed, is that in addition to their enthusiasm, what is more, precious is their hard work and persistence.
Elder sister Zhu Fanghui (Yolanda) started to learn ballet at the age of 3. She is 14 years old this year and has been dancing ballet for over 10 years. Younger sister Zhu Fangfei (Jovina) started to learn ballet at the age of 4. She is 12 years old and has been dancing ballet for 8 years. The sisters were fortunate to meet two professional teachers of classical court ballet in their 80s more than ten years ago. Since then, they have begun to receive strict professional ballet training. For many years, they have persisted in studying after school from Monday to Friday. To cooperate with the children in learning ballet, the children’s mother also asked them to learn piano, violin, music theory, physical training, and other courses. The study ended at 9 pm on weekends. The sisters wanted to attendevery class even in the wind and rain.
Through the unremitting efforts of the two sisters, the elder sister was finally admitted to the New Zealand National Ballet in Wellington a year ago and became a backup actress. Because she still has to finish her studies, she has to shuttle between the two cities every year. The younger sister also successfully entered the world’s top ten Australian ballet schools. In their perfect dancing posture, in the applause they received, and when they were honored, all of these included their ups and downs and dedication to their families.
The reporter interviewed her sister Zhu Fanghui, and what she said moved the reporter remarkably. She said: “I have loved ballet since I was a child. Today, I would like to thank my mother for her dedication and hard work to fulfill us. I also want to thank the ballet teachers for their painstaking cultivation of us and their tolerance and love for us. Our sisters We will continue to develop in this art field, and we will never disappoint the expectations of our mentors.” In just a few words, express the children’s gratitude and determination to continue to work hard.
Seeing the worn-out dancing shoes of the sisters is enough to make people feel their hard work and sweat, and their success is inevitable. This made the reporter also recall that several years ago when China’s official media “People’s Daily Online” and “Qiaowang.com” published reports on New Zealand, they also selected photos of Zhu Fanghui’s beautiful dancing skills.
Their beauty is not only on the stage, but their life gestures show their dancers’ brilliance. All of them condense their pursuit of perfection and endless harshness to themselves. Their success is accumulated through repeated failures. Over the years, in the official competitions under the Royal New Zealand Ballet Association, the sisters have won hundreds of championship trophies! How proud they are!
However, these are inseparable from their mother Michelle’s selfless dedication. To have enough money for the children to participate in various expensive training and competitions, she worked three jobs at most, including working as a manager at the university and part-time as an IBM employee, leaving the house at 6 am and returning home after 9 pm. She was exhausted all over, to provide the best learning conditions for the children. Here, we also want to give warm applause to this great mother.
Ballet dancers are the most beautiful dancers. Zhu Fanghui and Zhu Fangfei have devoted themselves to art and brought unparalleled artistic enjoyment to the audience, which deserves our admiration. The sweat they left behind in the dance room, and their repeated trials are the best proof of their growth. We believe that with their efforts, these two dazzling new ballet stars will shine the most brilliantly and charmingly on the world stage.
