Dancing Lions
Have you seen lions dancing in the streets? It happens on the first day of the new year in China. The lions dance to the beat of a drum. They are not real lions. They are dancers in lion costumes. The lions dancing is part of a tradition that is centuries old. It started in China. 1. It means bringing good luck in the coming year.
Usually, a lion includes two dancers. 2. 一个控制头。 The other controls the tail.
“I think of it as a sport.” says Anthony Huang, aged 16. He is a member of the New York Chinese Freemasons Athletic Club. Anthony performs as the lion’s head. It can weigh 20 pounds. Lion dancing is important to Anthony.
In the past, lion dancing was performed mostly by men. But it has changed today. Lion Dance Me is a lion dancing group. It is in San Francisco, California. There are boys and girls on its team. 3. 他们一起舞。 Ananda Tang-Lee is 17. She says anyone can take up lion dancing. “You have to have confidence that you can do it.” she says.
Lion dancing will likely continue to develop. 4. But one thing that will never change is the sense of community among team members. “We call it a family,” Ananda says. “It’s really great, because we always have each other’s backs.”
