"In 1996, Jin Xing made his most controversial choice. Having always felt the internal calling to be female, he underwent sex change surgery –the very first transsexual operation sanctioned by the Chinese government. Now, having overcome several social taboos, Jin Xing is a mother of three, as well as being multilingual and the director of her own Jin Xing Dance Theatre. She continues to travel and perform throughout China and abroad. This month, she returns to Beijing with her production, Haishang Tango."
