悉尼华人舞蹈团副团长张莹访谈录
在悉尼华人舞蹈团的日常运作中，无论舞台表演，亦或日常排练，大家总能听到一个清脆的名字萦绕耳边，那就是Jenny。演出场次如何安排，问Jenny；舞蹈动作不记得了，问Jenny；服装道具如何分配，问Jenny；通勤车辆如何协调，问Jenny；只要Jenny在，一切的问题似乎都会迎刃而解。而大家口中的Jenny，就是张莹，悉尼华人舞蹈团副团长。
舞蹈，自张莹儿时起已是她热情所系。天生的艺术细胞，加上多年来的艺术熏陶,使得张莹对于舞蹈艺术有着敏锐而独特的领悟。在西安交通大学求学期间，张莹一直在校担任文艺宣传委员，她曾多次组织并参与了学校举办的舞蹈比赛，其创作的舞蹈节目曾获得过前三名的好成绩。出于对舞蹈由衷的热爱，参加工作以后，张莹依然积极投身舞蹈艺术的推广，并带领所属企业的舞蹈团队参加了舞蹈大赛，并一举夺得了季军。
来澳二十多年，张莹一直在新州政府部门工作。自打悉尼华人舞蹈团成立初期，张莹便成为了其中的一员。在这里，张莹一直不断追寻并实现着她的舞蹈梦想，直到如今已经不知不觉走过了八个春秋。在这四百一十六个星期里，张莹几乎从未缺席过任何一次舞蹈团的例行训练。无论是平常排练亦或是登台演出，张莹永远是最认真的那一个。每一个细节仿佛都印在了她的脑海里，即使是很多年没有排练过的保留节目，她也会分毫不差的记得每一个动作，每一个节拍，这在彩排时可以称得上是大家的“杀手锏”：只要Jenny在就没问题啦，她会记得动作！这敏锐的舞蹈感知和深刻的舞蹈记忆中，蕴藏的是张莹一颗对舞蹈艺术痴狂的心。
生活中的张莹爱舞蹈，也爱体育，她不仅是一名出色舞者，同时也是一位排球高手，还曾代表宝鸡市参加陕西省排球大赛，并获得名次。聊到种花、烹饪和养生，张莹同样是如数家珍。每次去张莹家里，大家都会品尝到各式各样的养生美食，鲜榨豆浆和八宝粥更是她的拿手绝活。所有爱舞蹈的女子都是懂得生活的，这句话一点都没错。

自从2005年加入悉尼华人舞蹈团以来，除了舞蹈表演以外，张莹更肩负着领导舞团发展壮大的重任。如果说悉尼华人舞蹈团是一个大家庭，那张莹便是这个大家庭的大管家，掌管一切内外事务。大到演出安排、统筹管理，小至服装道具、细枝末节，每一件小事，每一个细节，她都会悉心考虑，精心照料，把这个大家庭打理得井井有条，日益兴旺。无论舞蹈还是团务，台前或是幕后，张莹都力争以最大的热情认真地把一切都努力做到最好。在这看似是完美主义的背后，体现出的是张莹真正的责任感，而正是这样的责任感才能使一个团里的每一个成员紧紧的凝聚在一起，风雨同舟，共济前行。每当悉尼华人舞蹈团在耀眼的聚光灯下，书写一个又一个神话，演绎一段又一段传奇，讲述一个又一个故事，留下一段又一段佳话，请大家不要忘记，辉煌的背后，一直在默默奉献、无私付出的，是舞蹈团的副团长Jenny Zhang，请大家记住这个闪耀的名字——张莹。
Jenny Zhang, the vice president of Sydney Chinese Dance Group, has discovered her passion in dancing from early age and has never given up dancing ever since. As an active member of the art and dance committee of the XI’an Jiaotong University, Jenny participated and organised various dance events and the dance she choreographed won the third place in university dance competition. Graduated from university, Jenny not only became a valuable member of her workplace, but also actively promoted the art of dancing. The workforce dance team led by Jenny won the second place in the Xi’an Worker Dance Competition.
Jenny has been working for NSW state department since her arrival in Australia more than 20 years ago and has been an indispensible member of the Sydney Chinese Dance Group since its establishment. In the past eight years, Jenny has barely missed any weekly training and certainly deserves to be considered the most diligent and conscientious member of the group as she always remembers every single movements of all the performance the group has performed, which has clearly revealed her passion and love towards the art of dance.
Apart from playing the role as an excellent dancer, Jenny also holds the great responsibility of leading the group to greater improvement. As the vice president of the group, Jenny is in charge of a wide of tasks from costume and props to performance production and management. Jenny’s pursuit of perfection is no doubt a crystal clear evidence of her love and passion in the art of dance as well as her great sense of responsibility and solidarity towards the Sydney Chinese Dance Group.
