Here's the deal: during Lunar New Year, we make the bulk of our money. And it's literally just enough to pay rent, keep the lights on, and help our shifu not starve to death. This is not a lucrative practice.

And here's the problem: ICE

ICE is harassing any multicultural gathering on their quest for ethnic cleansing. No one is safe.

We're going out there to perform, but... we could die. Get a head injury. Ruin our lungs by getting gassed. Get abducted and sent to a concentration camp.

We haven't talked about it much in our team, because the specter of paramilitary engagement seems to be miles away, but they're mustering in our cities now as we speak. We have talked about it in my household, and... I guess we made an exit plan. Maybe we should draw up our wills; I don't know.

But as you draw art about horses and go "yaaay horsey", you should know the fear gripping my heart this holiday season.

Ever wanted to watch a beautifully animated coming-of-age movie about the Chinese art of Lion Dancing?

No? Well you should. "I AM WHAT I AM", an incredible animated movie that went under the radar in 2021 is now available on Youtube for free courtesy of the distributor, Tiger Pictures Entertainment (who have more movies on their channel). Go show overseas animation some love! It costs nothing.

The film is about three teenagers who were ignored and bullied by others. By coincidence, they began their lion dance journey and under the

Hello!!

Welcome to a blog dedicated to the many kinds of lion dancing! It isn't just only southern lions here, but also northern, japanese, tibetan, and more! There will also be occasional qilin and other dances relating to such.

[More below]

For starters, you can call me Doggy, and my pronouns are they/he/it/bark/guts. I am also autistic so please use tone tags if you can.

I've taken interest in lion dancing near the start of 2026. It started when chinese new year was starting up, and I started seeing a lot of lion dancing videos pop up in my recommendation. It was fun and mesmerizing to watch people perform in these lion costumes and heads and I couldn't help but look more into it. As I did, I found much more lion dances from other regions, and my love for it continued there.

Because of my chronic pain there is no way for me to perform lion dancing myself (it would be cool to do it) so all I can do is admire from the crowd. I've never seen lion dancing in person before, but hopefully in the future I can! And, of course, when I do I will take many pictures and videos.

I am still learning a lot of things about lion dancing, so any info I give on any may not be 100% true. I highly encourage any correction in case I make any mistakes.

What is posted here?

Videos and pictures (with credit of course), reblogged art, facts, info, and more. In the future I might accept submissions.

"What you said in this post is incorrect."

Then please POLITELY correct me. I'm still learning a lot about lion dancing in general, and I know that I'm not 100% correct. Any correction is a perfect opportunity for me to learn more.

Boundaries?

Do note that I block freely. If there is something about you that I do not like that I see then I will block. It goes without saying, but if you are a bigot of any form (homophobic, transphobic, ableist, intersexist, exorsexist, racist, TERF, and any other bigotry) then you are not welcomed here and you need to go outside and think about your life. I will also never post anything NSFW here ever.

Closing

I originally made this blog mostly for myself, but if others also enjoy it then that's nice! Hope this blog can bring some joy in your day :]
