曾馨瑩總是以溫暖與行動力，成為她所熱愛領域的推動者。無論是在公益活動中關懷弱勢與獨居長者，或是積極支持年輕舞者，撐起他們的夢想。她始終相信，愛是一種流動的能量，它不僅能夠改變個人，也能夠溫暖整個社會。她持續用行動去詮釋「付出與陪伴」的真正價值。
「其實公益活動我一直在做，每一年都持續參與，因為我覺得這很重要，是一種責任。」她輕輕著說道。從關懷長者的慈善晚宴到為霹靂舞舞者開創國際舞台，這些努力看似來自不同的方向，卻有著共同的核心-讓被忽視的人被看見，讓他們找回自信與尊嚴。
With warmth and unwavering proactivity, Delia Tseng is always a promoter of the things she is passionate about. Whether advocating for minority communities, offering support to solo agers, or empowering young dancers to pursue their dreams, she believes love is a fluid energy that transforms individuals and brings warmth to society. Through her relentless efforts, she continues to iterate the value of “giving and companionship.”
“Charity has always been a part of my life. Year after year, I remain committed because I believe it is important—it’s a form of responsibility,” Delia says gently. From hosting charity banquets for the elderly to establishing global platforms for breakers, her philanthropic vision may span diverse initiatives. However, they are bonded by the common purpose: “To bring visibility to the unseen, restoring confidence and dignity to those who need it.”
全方位長者關懷
談起公益，曾馨瑩的眼中閃爍著堅定的光芒。她長期關注獨居長者的生活，並透過優質生命協會，提供物資與情感上的關懷。「這些年，除了贊助弱勢族群，我特別關注獨居老人的生活品質，因為我發現，他們需要的不僅僅是物質的幫助，更重要的是精神上的慰藉。」她回憶起一場特別的慈善晚宴，那是一場為長者們精心策劃的晚宴。「我想這些長者們可能從未參加過這樣的活動，當天有專業化妝師為他們整理妝容，更幫他們換上正式禮服，許多人都眼泛淚光。」
這不僅是一場晚宴，更是一場心靈的洗禮。當長者們看著鏡中的自己，重新拾回年輕時的光彩，那一刻的笑容是最珍貴的畫面。「他們平時或許孤單，但這一天，他們不只是被照顧，而是成為晚宴中的主角。」曾馨瑩很支持這樣的活動，讓長者們感受到自己仍然擁有被愛與被重視的權利。
這份愛的種子，也深深影響著她的孩子們。從最初的陪伴，到現在孩子們主動參與公益，曾馨瑩看到了愛的傳承。「以前是我問孩子們要不要陪我一起參與，現在變成他們主動問我：『媽媽，我可以一起去參加嗎？』甚至連弟弟妹妹都會問，為什麼姐姐可以去，他們不能共同參與？」她笑著說，大女兒現在也會自己參與公益活動，這樣的變化讓她感到欣慰，也更加堅定她推動公益的信念。
A Holistic Approach to Elderly Care
When it comes to charity, Delia Tseng’s eyes shine with determination. For years, she has been dedicated to the well-being of solo-agers, offering material support and emotional care through the Taiwan U-Life Association. “Beyond financial assistance, I’ve placed great emphasis on enriching the lives of solo-agers,” she shares, “I realize seniors need more than tangible support; they need emotional connection and a sense of belonging.”
She recalls a particularly touching charity gala organized exclusively for elderly guests. “I imagined that many of them may have never had the chance to attend an event like this,” she shares, “We had professional makeup artists do their makeup, along with elegant evening dresses, which brought many of them to tears.”
But this was more than just a banquet; it was a moment that touched the soul. As the guests saw themselves in the mirror restored with a youthful glow, their radiant smiles were the most precious highlight of the night. “They may live in solitude, but tonight, they were not only cared for, they were celebrated,” Delia says. Through promoting these meaningful events, she hopes to remind seniors that they deserve to be seen, cherished, and loved.
The seed of love was also sowed in her children. Starting with simple shared moments, her children now proactively participate in charity events. Delia sees love being paid forward: “I used to ask if my children wanted to take part, but now they’re the ones asking ‘Mom, may I come along?’ Even their youngest siblings would ask how come their sister could go and not them,” she laughs. Watching her eldest daughter attend charity events independently has been a profoundly rewarding transformation, reaffirming Delia’s commitment to promoting charity events.
霹靂舞躍登國際
當霹靂舞正式成為奧運競賽項目時，曾馨瑩意識到，這將是台灣舞者登上世界舞台的重要契機。然而，要讓台灣舞者真正站穩腳步，光靠熱情是不夠的，還需要完整的培訓與資源。於是，她成立了「永齡霹靂舞銘日之馨培訓計畫」，希望透過系統化的訓練，讓台灣的霹靂舞
舞者能夠在國際賽事中發光發熱。
「這個計畫已經支持很多年了，但前幾年聽到霹靂舞正式進入奧運項目時，我們真的很興奮！」她回憶當時得知消息時的激動。「台灣喜愛舞蹈的人很多，但舞者們大多靠苦練，沒有太多資源去參加國際賽事。」她解釋，為了讓選手們能夠走上更高舞台，計畫特別安排國際師資、跨國移地訓練，以及運動科學輔助、心理建設等。「如果沒有專業訓練，光靠自己練習是很難突破的。選手們要參加國際比賽，就得不斷累積積分，這需要長期的規劃與支持。」
談及選手的選拔，她強調：「我們不只是支持現有的頂尖選手，更希望培養下一代。我們精挑細選具潛力的舞者，從不同年齡層開始培育，建立完整制度。」她相信，透過這樣的方式，台灣的霹靂舞選手才能真正躍上國際舞台。
她坦言，自己過去曾接觸過多種舞蹈，卻從未挑戰霹靂舞。「對我而言，霹靂舞最難的應該是地板動作的頭轉吧？」她笑著說，「這對我真的太難了，所以從未試過」不過，她對於翻滾動作特別有興趣。「以前學過武術，所以看到選手們翻來翻去，我也會很想嘗試。」
Breaking on the Global Stage
When breaking was officially recognized as an Olympic sport, Delia Tseng knew this was a defining moment. It is an unprecedented opportunity for Taiwan’s dancers to step into the international spotlight. Yet passion alone would not be enough; structured training and resources were essential. Determined to elevate Taiwan’s breakers to world-class status, she launched the YongLin Breaking Training Program designed to equip Taiwan breaking dancers with the systemic coaching they need to compete on the global stage.
“This program has been running for years, but a couple of years ago when breaking was officially confirmed as an Olympic event, we were all thrilled!” Delia recalls their excitement. “Taiwan has an incredible dance community, but many breakers rely solely on relentless self-practice, with little access to resources necessary to compete internationally,” Delia explains. To put these breakers on a bigger stage, the training program introduces world-class coaching, overseas training camps, sports science integration, and psychological support. “It’s tough to make breakthroughs on their own without professional guidance. To truly make it in global competitions, breakers must accumulate ranking points, which requires long-term planning and dedicated support.”
As for athlete candidates, Delia emphasized, “We hope to not only nurture existing top-tier talent, we are also committed to cultivating the next generation of breakers. We carefully scout promising talents and breakers from different age groups to build a sustainable pipeline structure for Taiwan’s breaking scene.” She believes through this initiative, Taiwan’s breakers can then finally claim their place on the international stage.
Despite her deep involvement in the dance community, Delia frankly admits that breaking remains uncharted territory for her. “If I had to pick the most challenging move, it would definitely be the head spin!” she laughs. “That’s way beyond my skill set, I would never dare to attempt it.” But her love for dynamic movement is undeniable. “I was trained in martial arts when I was younger, so whenever I see the dancers flipping and rolling, I can’t help but feel the urge to give it a try.”
正向心態啟新程
今年，對馨瑩是人生邁入新階段的一年。「老實說進入這階段，－開始真的不太能接受。」她坦率地說道，「時光匆匆，轉眼流逝，太快了…」但她很快調整心態，選擇積極面對人生的每個變化，擁抱生命的每個過程。「每個階段都有該學習的智慧，調整自己心態，定能自在從容，便能活得更優雅喜樂。」
「現在的我每天都會思考，除了身體健康之外，如何讓自己活得更加自在與快樂。我也會嘗試更多簡單有活力的穿搭，不再拘泥於特定風格。」尤其這幾年接觸更多年輕霹靂舞選手，跟他們接觸時，我也會配合大家，嘗試寬鬆、街頭風格的服裝，更能與年輕人融合在一起。「現在的時尚趨勢剛好符合我的心態，舒服、自在、帶點個性，簡單中略帶設計感，這正是我想要的。」她笑著說，穿搭對她來說，從來不只是外表，而是一種自我心態的展現。
曾馨瑩相信無論在哪個階段，最重要的是保持滿滿正能量。「人一定要學會釋放負能量，不讓自己被情緒困住。」這幾年，她發現自己即使在分享不開心的事情時，已經能夠用輕鬆的態度，笑著說出來，「朋友都說，現在的我，變得更強大且輕鬆」，這種自在，來自於心態的轉變，也來自於對生活的熱愛。「無論年齡如何變化，都要活得自在、開心，這才是最重要的。」她堅定地說道，未來她也期待會繼續以自己的方式，將愛與美好的力量傳遞給更多更多的人。
A New Chapter: Embracing a Positive Mindset
This year marks a pivotal transition for Delia Tseng. “To be honest, stepping into this stage of life was difficult to accept,” she confesses. “Time passes too quickly…far too quickly.” Yet, she quickly recalibrated and chose to proactively embrace every transition and chapter. “Every phase of life comes with its wisdom. If you shift your mindset, you can navigate each phase with ease, and live with elegance and joy,” she reflects.
Delia mentioned “Exploring new approaches to cultivating a freer, more fulfilling lifestyle has been on my mind these days. Health remains a priority, but I have also been experimenting with various fashion styles that feel effortless yet expressive. These years, the immersion in the young breaker community has influenced my style. I’ve started to complement with oversized, streetwear so I could blend in with younger generations,” says Delia. “Fashion today aligns perfectly with my current mindset: comfortable, effortless, with just the right edge, simple, but with a touch of design. That’s exactly what I want,” she laughed and suggested that it was never about appearance, it was about manifesting self-reflection.
At the core of her philosophy, Delia Tseng believes that a positive mindset is paramount at every stage of life. “You have to learn to release negativity. Don’t let emotions confine you,” Delia says. In recent years, she has noticed a shift within herself, she now approaches difficulties in a breeze with ease and laughter. “My friends tell me I’ve grown stronger, and more at ease,” she says, attributing this newfound serenity to a shift in perspective and her passion for life. Delia remains steadfast in her belief that “Regardless of the passing years, living joyfully and authentically is what truly matters.” She hopes to share love and strength with more people in her way.
