Lion Dance is an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. In the past, Lion Dance was only seen during Chinese New Year and at some businesses grand openings; today, Lion Dance is a common sight at weddings, anniversaries, parades, and many other functions and events. The lion's blessings are believed to bring happiness, longevity and good luck.

Hong De Lion Dance Troupe is an official member of the International Sar Ping Lion Dance Confederation. Our goal is to develop and promote the art of Lion Dance as a cultural sport with systematic training programs of international standards.
