While it’s commonplace for Chinese square dancing to be accompanied by loud music, one group of older dancers in Nanning has decided to turn off the loudspeakers without turning down their fun.

Tired of noise complaints, the Nanning Dream Team ditched the speakers and added individual headsets to make sure they can still enjoy dancing in the community, but in what to neighbors must be a more civilized way.

In a city square in Nanning, South China’s Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, nearly 100 seniors concentrated on following the moves of their dance leader while wearing headsets to listen to the music.

Many passersby did a double take when they saw the dance team go through a routine, seemingly without any audible music blaring from loudspeakers.
