On April 10, 2005, a waist-drum troupe composed of Falun Dafa practitioners from Miaoli, Taiwan, were invited to give a performance at the 60th anniversary of Liuhe Elementary of Taofen Town, Miaoli County. The troupe played drums to two pieces of music, "Falun Dafa Is Good" and "Waist Drum Displays Invincible Might," and demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises. Their performance won rounds of warm applause from the audience.

It was a beautiful day. The grand occasion of the 60th anniversary attracted many guests, including the Deputy County Governor, Standing Committee Members, Congressmen, the Mayor, a ninety-eight-year-old retired principal, more than thirty principals from other schools, distinguished alumni and hundreds of parents. The school principal and several Falun Gong practitioners are alumni. They talked about Falun Gong during their conversations with the other guests. Many people learned more about Falun Gong and took the introductory materials home.

The waist-drum troupe showed high spirits and precise, coordinated movements. The spectators were fascinated by their performance and rewarded them with spontaneous outbursts of applause. Following the waist-drum performance was a Falun Gong exercise demonstration. A concise narration gave spectators a basic understanding of Falun Dafa. More people wanted to get introductory materials after the demonstration.
The Waist-Drum Troupe was established earlier this year. Ever since their initial performance at the Lantern Festival Celebration, they have been invited to perform at all the public festivals and celebrations in the nearby villages and towns and take great pride in doing so. The spirit of the waist drum troupe provided an opportunity for more people to learn about Falun Gong. The people in Miaoli have been impressed with the spirit of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" demonstrated by the troupe. Falun Dafa has won their hearts.
