Far East Dragon Lion Dance

Team History

The Far East Dragon Lion Dance Association is a non-profit youth group and lion dance troupe which strives to use the traditional Lion Dance as a vehicle for cultural and community awareness. We are also a firm advocate for "women empowerment" especially in a culture where females are discouraged from lion dancing and are the first lion dance troupe in the Bay Area to promote females learning both the musical and dance elements going beyond traditional norms.

Participants and members of the group spend anywhere from 3-4 days a week learning the traditional art of lion dance as well as participating in a number of community events in the area.
