Chinese Teens Dance to Glory at Juste Debout World Finals
Li Yongqiu, a 14-year-old from Southwestern China’s Chongqing Municipality, made history by winning the Global Championship in the Junior Dance Tour, becoming the third Chinese dancer to achieve this feat. His explosive power and technical mastery, honed through years of training that integrates Kungfu elements, captivated judges and audiences alike.
The Chinese contingent's success didn't stop there. Zhang Xinlan and Zhang Chuyi secured a Top 8 finish in the Popping Adult Division, while Liu Yangjunmiao also reached the Top 8 in the Junior Dance Tour.
Behind their victories lies a rich tapestry of cultural heritage. Li's movements blend martial arts techniques with street dance rhythms, while Liu draws inspiration from the legendary Nezha — the mythical boy warrior from his hometown in Sichuan. The dancers also carried blessings from a thousand-year-old tradition, with Shu Brocade motifs adorning their performance costumes.
"Through the martial arts I learned, I've come to understand Chinese culture and how to channel that power into my dance," said Li after his victory.
The young dancers' success represents a new generation confidently blending China's cultural traditions with contemporary trends, pushing boundaries and radiating youthful energy on the world stage.
Xtep as the sponsor, cited that the outfit design has also some special meaning.
“Accompanying these young Chinese street dancers to Paris was a blessing woven a thousand years ago,” said Huang Ping, Promoter of the Chinese Shu Brocade Culture. “Since they are representing China, I embedded Chinese traditional cultural elements in the design of their performance outfits.”

Adtran sets intra-data center benchmark with all-new ultra-low-power LiteWave800™ LPO module10.3.2026 14:00:00 CET | Press Release
Adtran today launched LiteWave800™, an ultra‑low‑power 800Gbit/s DR8 linear pluggable optics (LPO) module engineered to help data centers address the power, latency, thermal and bandwidth demands of modern AI and machine-learning (ML) workloads. As GPU clusters grow and short-reach links scale across dense server racks, operators need 800Gbit/s optics that deliver higher capacity within strict power and cooling limits. LiteWave800™ answers this challenge with a fully re-engineered architecture that significantly reduces energy consumption. Operating at just 1pJ/bit and consuming only 0.8W, it establishes a new power class for 800Gbit/s optics, delivering far lower energy per bit than today’s first‑generation LPOs and mainstream DSP-based pluggable transceivers. Adtran will showcase LiteWave800™ at OFC 2026 in Los Angeles from March 17 to 19. This press release features multimedia.
