The lion dance is part of traditional Chinese culture. People often perform it the night before the Chinese New Year. They also perform it for other happy occasions. People think the lion dance can bring good luck and happiness.
There are two different kinds of lion dances. In the southern lion dance, the dancers try hard to perform like a real lion. Their “lion” shakes its body. The dance may be funny. The other kind is the northern lion dance. It has more martial art skills, like rolling and leaping. Both lion dances are very interesting, but it takes a lot of practice to perform well.
