“Absolutely breathtaking. I’ve always loved watching live performances and Shen Yun is the only one that moved me to tears as soon as the curtain opened. Absolutely beautiful, the most amazing I’ve ever seen. Show.” Darlene Kranstz, a four-time international women’s sports jiu-jitsu champion, was full of praise after watching Shen Yun.
Many audience members at the scene were walking out of the house for the first time after the epidemic. They said, “There is no better reason for me to leave the house than watching Shen Yun.”
“I felt such a powerful divine energy, I felt hope, joy, peace… I felt very wonderful.” Ms. Rhoda Simpson was deeply shocked by the energy radiated by Shen Yun after watching the performance that afternoon.
“The colors glow like flowers,” she said. “I’m a Christian, and I’m delighted to think about the culture they went through.”
Simpson mentioned that he has long-standing health problems, such as pain in the tailbone, which can be unbearable when sitting for long periods of time. But she said that the energy of the performance made her feel physically and mentally relaxed. “Today I have a little pain, but it’s not serious. Usually I can’t sit for that long.”
The divinity of the show was a humbling experience for Simpson. She said: “From about the third or fourth show, I started to experience some magical experiences, and I felt very happy.”
Feel the presence of God and the energy pouring down See the golden light
She said: “I felt the presence of the gods, and the energy pouring out of them, and I saw the energy coming around us, and I could feel the energy. It was a magical and divine experience, very Holy; I feel that energy and it makes me want to dance with the dancers, it’s amazing.”
Simpson said the energy was very uplifting, “I felt uplifted in my body and mind, like my soul had found a source of joy. I saw that I was surrounded by a bright yellow light and it made me feel so bright inside.”
“These lights came from the stage and I was immersed in them. I was seated close to the orchestra and I had no time to think about what was happening beside me or behind me, but I saw the audience beside me, the lady was covered in golden light, like she became A golden statue. She looked so happy. You could see the golden light… It’s hard for me to find the exact words to describe the scene, but she was really golden.”
Simpson also noted that as she was gradually surrounded by energy filled with yellow light, she felt “peace of mind, full of joy and sublimation of life.”
Simpson added: “Even though the actors on stage are all dressed in the same costumes, they emit different colors of energy, it’s a very magical experience, it brings a sublimation of life. They bring us inner joy. I I think I got the gift of God today.”
Former jiu-jitsu champion: Shen Yun makes the world a better place
Darlene Kranstz said after watching the performance that afternoon: “Everything is so beautiful, the costumes, the dance, the sky, the music are so beautiful, this is the best performance I have ever seen.”
Kranstz is currently the Principal of Milton Jiu-Jitsu School (Milton Jiu-Jitsu), with an eighth-dan black belt in Jiu-Jitsu. He has more than 40 years of Jiu-Jitsu experience and has won the International Women’s Sports Jiu-Jitsu Championship 4 times.
The traditional culture displayed by Shen Yun contains rich divinity, and Kranstz was moved by the scene of the creator on stage leading the gods to descend into the world to create a civilization. She believes that the divine connotation in traditional culture will have a positive impact on the world today.

Kranstz also said, “This will bring a sense of awe to the people living in our world. To see such a beautiful display here, let us forget the ugliness of the world and just enjoy the beauty brought by the charm.”
Kranstz expressed his admiration for Shen Yun’s mission to restore traditional culture destroyed by communism, “This is a mission that requires persistence. We cannot allow traditions to be destroyed, but need to be restored and passed on to restore the original appearance of traditions. “
“When we lose our traditions, we also lose the Tao in our hearts; traditions are our foundation, giving us direction, the purpose and meaning of our existence; without traditions, we are a group of lost souls,” she said.
Seeing the strength and softness displayed in classical Chinese dance, Kranstz said: “I love these dances very much, they (the dancers) balance the martial arts movements perfectly, adding more beauty to the martial arts-like movements. The balance is very good. It’s beautiful, like the extremes of the spectrum are well balanced, and each movement has its own unique beauty.”
Kranstz noted that the female dancer is “extremely noble, elegant and dynamic, with incredible power[in the dance].”
Kranstz also said that every aspect of the show was impressive. “I really can’t pick which show is the most memorable. Every time the curtain rises, it’s an amazing picture, it’s eye-catching, I can’t ignore any dancer, I have a heart for everyone Be in awe.”
Kranstz also said that she liked the tenor’s singing very much, and the lyrics also resonated with her heart. “Amazing, very brilliant.”
“Shen Yun is a great work that will make the world a better place. Everyone should come and experience it for themselves.” Kranstz said he would definitely come to the show again, and would bring his grandson with him.
Kranstz also mentioned that this is the first time to go out after the epidemic. “I really love it, absolutely love it, and there’s no better reason for me to get out of the house than to watch Shen Yun.”
