Preparing my students for their first Chinese New Year Lion Dance

Today, one of my dance troop students performed at their first traditional Chinese New Year Performance! Whether they were "taming the lions" or hitting the drums, all of the students immersed themselves in Chinese culture and learned more about Chinese dance.

My students did such a wonderful job performing for the city of Villa Park! Over 100 community members from across Orange County came to watch the lion dance that I choreographed along with the Cultural Experiences Director.
