Hi,

you mean activities like wushi zhen in Fujian?
I thought the dance part came long before the Japanese..

Anyway, that's a cool documentary. While in Taiwan, I remember seeing a "Guoshu guan" sign by the road, and people telling me that it was probably a doctor. At that time I thought they're joking or something. Now I see they were right. :)
