At first, the team had nothing, the members of the spontaneous purchase of recorders, drums and other equipment, and use the evening time to learn to play the drums, learn to dance. Wang Zufen when the teacher is the school literary backbone, after retirement was elected to the Dong City Senior Sports Association ad hoc committee members, we unanimously elected her as a coach, she lived up to the expectations of the responsibility, conscientiously organizing everyone to figure out the basic play of the waist drums, learning to dance rice-planting dance, even the ringing of the dance and the square dance.

It is named after the continuous sound of the bamboo stick. Its basic steps are the front step, eight steps, ding step, bow step, step, pad step, etc. The bamboo stick can be up and down, left and right flipping dance; it can be an individual individual song and dance, but also dozens of people can perform collectively, in the multi-people dance, you can change each other's stick to form a variety of patterns and shapes. After mastering the basic playing style and footwork, then the actual training will receive twice the result with half the effort. In the square dance training, she first from the Internet to search, follow the video recording to learn to dance a variety of square dance, and then will learn the dance to teach other people, with everyone to share the joy of it.
