OAEC原创节目《Noodle》夺得 2021 World Dance Championship
World Champion!
OAEC原创舞蹈《Noodle》在ShowStopper National Finals夺得第一名, 在Nexstar National Finals更是赢得大满贯，荣获Golden
Ticket 进军在New Jersey举办的世界舞蹈锦标赛（The World Dance Championship）。由各星舞联盟赛事从世界各地的两万多个节目中精选获邀的220多个优秀群舞剧目参加了这个争夺世界舞蹈冠军称号的顶级比赛。为了以更好的状态参赛，OAEC的老师们精益求精完善编舞和排练，家长们群策群力改进道具。7/26日，
Junior Small Group的50多个优秀剧目激烈角逐，OAEC的原创舞蹈《Noodle》荣登Top Five！接下来，第二轮的冠军争夺赛更加严苛，进入前五名的剧目再次比赛，由不同的评委再次评分重新排序。姑娘们不负众望，摘下冠军桂冠-2021 The World Champion！孩子们收获了奖杯，收获了自信，成就了不断进取，勇于挑战的团队精神。舞蹈《Noodle》用中国传统的水袖舞蹈语汇，传递新一代华裔的正能量，让艳丽的民族之花盛开在世界的大舞台。
把中国文化带到世界大舞台一直是校长徐利的梦想，这次获奖后，她分享了她的思考：
校长的话：
《Noodle》今天获大奖了： 2021 World Dance Championship First Place！孩子们雀跃，家长们欢腾，我却陷入了深思。《Noodle》是我们继《红灯笼》后准备进军纽约参赛的又一个原创剧目。从立意，构思，编舞，设计服装，制作道具，排练，不断修改完善，呈现在舞台上，层层闯关到今天夺冠，尽管有质疑，有放弃，但我们一路艰辛，一路坚持，一路成长。我常常想，比赛真的就是为了拿奖吗？今天获奖了，大家都开心，如果输了，是否继续相伴前行？没有人能保证一定赢，教育是一个过程，只有敢于尝试，才有赢的机遇，才能体验美丽的过程和创作的惊喜。失败是成功之母，这是人人皆知的道理，舍不得让孩子尝试失败，又如何让孩子成长，步向成功呢？艺术必须有诗和远方，我们还会继续尝试，继续探索，实践更多的创意。期待更多有志向的家长和乐于进取的孩子，无畏失败，携手前行，共同成长。
