In Beijing and Tianjin, performers show their high skills by jumping on one foot or going through obstacles. Some performers can even jump down from four stacked tables on one foot.
In Northeast China's Liaoning Province, Gaoqiao is the most famous. It has complete performance routines and a standard form. At first, performers must "Daxiang," that is, one stands on the shoulder of another and does a yangko dance. Then they run to change queue formations. At last, they perform in groups including pair dancing, "catching butterflies," "fishing," and small local operas, etc.
