Who we are
Shanghai Taglioniii Cultural & Artistic Exchange Co., Ltd. is a dynamic platform dedicated to fostering artistic exchange between China and the international community.
Founded by former professional ballerina Ni Dali, we bring together artists, institutions, and cultural projects through curated programs, global partnerships, and creative exchange.
Built on the idea of connection, we explore new ways to support meaningful dialogue across cultures—through education, performance, and collaboration.
Our name is inspired by 19th-century ballerina Marie Taglioni.
She was the first to dance an entire leading role on pointe,
introducing a new way of moving — where dance became not just technique, but a language of expression and thought.
We hope to carry that spirit forward — seeking meaningful change through freedom and creativity.
