The Traditional Chinese Lion Dance

The Traditional

Chinese Lion Dance!

(The video clip can now be downloaded, see bottom)

Traditionally the Chinese Lion Dance is supposed to bring

good luck and long life; and the better the performance,
the

more luck! It is mostly performed at openings of stores
or

Chinese restaurants, but also at traditional (Chinese)

weddings or to bless a new house or baby!

We really wanted that Lion Dance and found these guys on
Internet: Lion Dance Team There is a lot of information
on these pages, but for us it all started at: The Cultural
Historical Chinese Project pages. Here we found all info
to make our wedding extra special: we chose a mixture of
Traditional Chinese for Joy and Traditional European for
me. The Cultural Historical Chinese Project pages also has
information & pictures on the Traditional Lion Dance ;
that is how I first learned about it!
