  The only Chinese national ballet, the National Ballet of China (NBC) was founded on the 31st of December 1959. Originally known as the Experimental Ballet Company of the Beijing Dance School, “the cradle of dancers”, it quickly grew under the influence of numerous Russian masters. During its formative years from 1954 to 1963, Pyotr Gusev and other Russian artists brought the Ballet training typical of the Russian School and assimilated it into the Chinese training program. In collaboration together, the Russians and Chinese successfully staged a number of classical ballets including Swan Lake, Le Corsaire, and Giselle from 1958 to 1960.
