《中國舞獅》Chinese Lion Dance

Chinese Lion Dance

As people of Chinese origin continue settling into different parts of the world, the lion dance has become known to foreigners as one of the most glittering symbols of Chinese civilization. Though lions are praised as the “King of beasts” and a symbol that brings auspiciousness and exorcizes evil spirits within Chinese culture, lions were actually introduced into China more than two thousand years ago. Over thecourse of Chinese history the image of the lion has made its transition from the imperial court to lives of ordinary people, with the lion becoming very popular among Chinese people.

With the introduction of the lion came lion training dances. The lion dance has gradually evolved into a folk activity incorporating the elements of Chinese religious beliefs, art, acrobatics and martial arts. The Chinese lion dance is classified into two categories– the Northern lion and the Southern lion – according to their different geographic locations and traditions. The Southern lion and the Northern lion each have distinctive features and extraordinary charm. Today, in a series of grand events both at home and abroad, the wonderful lion dance demonstrates the undaunted perseverance of the Chinese people.
