Lion Dance in Hawaii – A Cultural Tradition For Everyone
Chinese Lion Dance is a very popular tradition in Hawaii, and can be seen at a variety of occasions. Hawaii lion dance groups entertain and delight crowds, and not only during Chinese New Year! Everyone enjoys the excitement and happiness that the lions bring.
Traditionally, the lions were used to chase away or dispel evil spirits. Today, they bring blessings, well wishes and good fortune.
Join Our Lion Dance Team
We’d love to have you in the Saam Fu ohana! New members are welcome. Adults and children can learn this rich tradition with us. Share it and watch those smiles light up. But most of all, have fun doing so!
Lion dance is a great extension of our kung fu training. It is an honor to keep this ancient tradition alive, bringing joy to others through our performances. Saam Fu has shared our love of lion dance not only on Oahu, but the Big Island, Maui and Los Angeles as well. We’d love to share our joy with you, too!
At Saam Fu Chinese Cultural Arts, we teach and perform traditional Fut San (Foshan) Southern Lion Dance. This style is typically performed by Southern Kung Fu schools. Its footwork and movements are strong and powerful, demonstrating the prowess and skill of the Kung Fu practitioners in the lion.
Please contact us to schedule a meeting and talk with our sifus. They will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
