China.org.cn: A la conquista del breakdance

BEIJING, 26 de enero de 2021 /PRNewswire/ — En diciembre de 2020, el breakdance pasó a formar parte del programa olímpico y debutará en los Juegos de París 2024. Este baile, de batalla en sus inicios, tuvo su origen en el barrio neoyorquino del Bronx en la década de 1970, y quienes lo practicaban eran en su mayoría latinos y afroamericanos.

BEIJING, 26 de enero de 2021 /PRNewswire/ — En diciembre de 2020, el breakdance pasó a formar parte del programa olímpico y debutará en los Juegos de París 2024. Este baile, de batalla en sus inicios, tuvo su origen en el barrio neoyorquino del Bronx en la década de 1970, y quienes lo practicaban eran en su mayoría latinos y afroamericanos. Su desarrollo posterior incluyó movimientos de la danza marcial brasileña capoeira, la gimnasia, las artes marciales chinas y otras disciplinas. Su práctica requiere un alto grado de aptitud física, técnica y expresión artística. En los últimos años, su popularidad en China ha ido poco a poco en aumento. 

En 2019, China estableció su primer equipo nacional juvenil de baile callejero, el cual ha acumulado primeros y segundos puestos en múltiples competiciones, incluida la modalidad de breakdance. Antes era una etapa de imitación, ahora China tiene su propio estilo. Han incorporado elementos tradicionales a la disciplina, como las artes marciales… Esto la hace más novedosa. La ventaja de la selección nacional china que participará en la justa olímpica es su juventud. El número de niños que lo practica en China es el mayor en el mundo y no deja de aumentar.

Debido a su corta historia en China todavía existe una brecha en lo es su escena cultural y nivel competitivo respecto a Estados Unidos y Europa, pero el pueblo chino tiene la voluntad de aprender y trabajar duro, lo que sumado al creciente interés de distintos sectores en este baile, servirá para que los talentos crezcan en número y acorten distancias con el alto nivel internacional. Las perspectivas de su desarrollo en China son amplias y alentadoras.

Ready to Travel in 2021? New Research Uncovers 3 Pandemic Trip Planning Tactics You Should Know Before You Go

DALLAS, Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — With new CDC guidelines on international travel going into effect this week and renewed efforts from federal officials to curb the spread of COVID-19, one thing is for certain: pandemic travel planning will be an integral part of 2021.

DALLAS, Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — With new CDC guidelines on international travel going into effect this week and renewed efforts from federal officials to curb the spread of COVID-19, one thing is for certain: pandemic travel planning will be an integral part of 2021. While the vaccine rollout has many travelers dreaming of their first post-pandemic trip, new research from Travelocity® finds that most Americans expect that travel will contain more precautionary measures than years prior.

Parents are 2x more likely to have traveled since the start of the pandemic and they’re planning trips earlier in 2021.

In fact, 77% of respondents said they believe travel has changed «significantly» or «completely» due to the pandemic, and the majority admitted they are only moderately familiar with changes the travel industry implemented1.  

«Pandemic travel planning isn’t going away, and so our research is really focused on understanding what positive behaviors we can take away from this moment to rebuild travel now and prepare for whatever comes next in the future,» says Katie Junod, General Manager at Travelocity.

The travel brand’s 2021 Pandemic Travel Planning survey looked at past, present and future planning tactics that could help Americans prepare for travel in the year ahead. Three surprising themes emerged from the report.

Have questions about pandemic travel? Ask a parent

Travelocity is predicting that family travel will be the first type of travel to make a comeback in 2021, due in large part to the fact that parents are twice as likely to have traveled since the start of the pandemic compared with non-parents, and they indicate a greater familiarity with changes in the travel industry.

«Parents have been arguably among the most impacted by the pandemic with pressures of coordinating everything and everyone at home,» says Junod. «As a result, travel is more of a necessity for them and they’ve stayed up-to-date on changes.»

According to the survey, parents are also inclined to take trips sooner, plan those trips earlier, and reserve their trips earlier than non-parents.

Rebuild travel confidence with a «toe-dip trip»

After nearly a year of travel restrictions and quarantines, 60% of travelers say they’re planning a post-pandemic trip within the next 9 months, and many (43%) feel extremely or very confident in their plans. Junod says this is largely attributable to the fact that travelers are planning shorter trips that rebuild confidence and create a sense of normalcy in the near term.

«We may be dreaming of that big bucket list trip, but what travelers are actually planning so far this year are visits to familiar destinations (24%), a road trip or a beach trip (30%), or weekend getaway (26%).»

Prioritize personal safety when making travel plans now and later

«As travelers plan trips now and later, their priorities – and what makes them feel confident and safe – is changing,» says Junod.

Respondents said the most important influence on their decision to travel right now was the cleanliness of hotel and transportation options and safe accommodations in their travel destination (81% rate each as «extremely» or «very» important). Travelocity rolled out enhanced cleanliness filters for hotel and car searches last summer and introduced cleaning and safety indicators for air travel before the holiday travel season. Online travel agencies have also updated traveler safety warnings with information from the CDC and made it easier to change or cancel travel plans by offering hotels with free cancellation options and flexible flight options like no change fees2. 

«As vaccination and testing programs continue to ramp up, we know travelers will need information on how that impacts travel and we’re working to make sure they get it.»

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — From the frontline workers needing temporary accommodations to the road warriors wanting an RV rental for a socially-distanced trip, people all over the world continued to seek accommodations in 2020. VacationRenter, a company that aggregates the best rentals from top sites, evolved to meet the changing needs of travelers and helped millions of people find places to stay in 2020.

The challenges facing the travel community amid the COVID-19 pandemic have made it crucial for travel companies to support both travelers and hosts. In response, the VacationRenter team focused on three key areas to provide for its customers:

  • Health and Safety Made Easy. The VacationRenter team added features that highlighted precautions hosts were taking to keep their guests safe, such as contactless check-in and enhanced cleaning procedures, making it easier for travelers to find the best rentals.
  • Personalized Search. The team redesigned the search experience by refining its machine learning algorithm to consider the new needs of travelers, providing more filters to make the planning process easier, and allowing travelers to save their favorite listings to revisit later.
  • New Places to Stay. VacationRenter became the first vacation rental site to list RV rentals during a time when RV rental interest surged because of the safe and socially distant nature of RV travel. The site now has more than 100,000 RVs across 15 countries, making it the largest peer-to-peer platform for RV rentals — and the only search engine that includes both vacation rentals and RVs.

By heightening its focus on building for the new world of travel in 2020, VacationRenter wrapped up the year surpassing a major milestone. The startup — which launched in 2018 — exceeded $1 billion in gross booking value for the year.

As travel behavior continues to evolve in 2021, VacationRenter is building solutions to meet the needs of travelers everywhere. This year, the company will continue to expand into international markets and offer new property types to tailor to the unique and changing needs of guests around the world. The startup will also further simplify and personalize the customer journey by building industry-first research and planning tools, and continuing to improve its machine learning-driven property recommendations.

«People needed safe and socially-distanced places to stay in 2020, and I’m proud of our team for being there for travelers at such a critical time,» said Chief Operating Officer, Marco del Rosario. «This year, we are committed to building innovative solutions that adapt as traveler needs evolve to make finding the perfect rental easier than ever before.»

PARSIPPANY, N.J., Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — In celebration of National Plan for Vacation Day, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts—the world’s largest hotel franchising company with approximately 9,000 hotels across 90 countries—today announced a new three-day, mobile app flash sale, offering travelers 25 percent off the Best Available Rate on upcoming stays of two nights or more at thousands of hotels across the U.S.

The sale comes on the heels of a recent survey of Americans by the U.S. Travel Association where 97% of respondents said that having a trip planned makes them happier while 84% said they’re excited to plan a vacation in the next six months. National Plan for Vacation Day takes place on the last Tuesday in January and encourages Americans to plan their vacation days for the year.

«Travelers want to get away and our hotels are ready to welcome them,» said Lisa Checchio, chief marketing officer, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. «Whether it’s getting that first trip on the books or planning an entire year’s worth of vacation, whatever travelers are excited to check out this year, they can book and stay with confidence.  And chances are, there’s a hotel by Wyndham just 10 minutes away.»

Wyndham launched its new mobile app last fall after carefully listening to the needs of guests. Designed to meet rising expectations, the app provides access to streamlined booking and lower contact, in-stay features like mobile check-in and checkout—a feature Wyndham was the first to rollout at scale across more than 6,000 economy and midscale hotels. Other app features include personalized experiences, Wyndham Rewards® account management, gamification and unique offerings like Lightning Book®, which makes it easy to book the nearest Wyndham hotel for the night in as a few as three taps.

Added Checchio, «Our new mobile app delivers the features everyday travelers want and at a scale no other hotel company can offer.»

New Study: Population Growth is Damaging Arizona’s Environment

ARLINGTON, Va., Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Since 1982, Arizona developers have paved 1.1 million acres of natural habitat and farmland — an area more than triple the size of Phoenix — to clear way for the state’s rapidly growing population. That’s among the key findings of a <a target="_blank"…

ARLINGTON, Va., Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Since 1982, Arizona developers have paved 1.1 million acres of natural habitat and farmland — an area more than triple the size of Phoenix — to clear way for the state’s rapidly growing population. That’s among the key findings of a new study on Arizona’s environment published today by NumbersUSA. 

«Arizona has experienced more urban sprawl than any state except Nevada,» said Leon Kolankiewicz, an environmental planner and co-author of the study. «As of 2017, there were almost 3,300 square miles of developed land in Arizona, a 114 percent increase since 1982. This sprawl — which is overwhelmingly driven by rapid population growth, rather than increases in per-capita resource consumption — is fragmenting habitats, exhausting water supplies, and exacerbating climate change.»

The study, titled «Population Growth and the Diminishing Natural State of Arizona,» examines how the state’s soaring population — which jumped from 2.9 million people in 1982 to over 7 million in 2017, a 144 percent increase — has strained everything from aquifers to Arizona’s unique desert biome.

«If we’re serious about protecting wildlife, conserving scarce water resources, and preserving open spaces for future generations, we must have a serious conversation about population growth,» said Eric Ruark, director of research at NumbersUSA and a co-author of the study. «Overdevelopment is a problem not just in Arizona but nationwide.»

The study finds that Arizona has experienced:

  • A 27 percent decrease in cropland — from 1.2 million acres in 1982 to 906,000 in 2015.
  • Depleted aquifers and reservoirs due to growing demand, reduced water flows in the Colorado River, and drier weather.
  • The endangerment and near-extinction of several species, including the Colorado pikeminnow, Yuma clapper rail, and ocelot.

Nationwide, developers have paved over 43 million acres of natural land since 1982 — an area the size of Florida — to accommodate our growing population.

«Formerly pristine open spaces are now strip malls, housing developments, and paved roadways,» said Kolankiewicz. «Unchecked growth is already harming Arizona’s environment — and could have dire consequences unless state and federal leaders take action.»

A link to the full report can be found here. Additional studies on sprawl can be found at NumbersUSA.org.
