Lion Dancing in the City - White Crane Street Performance Show at Night & Drumming Boston Rare Event

Filming at night, is something rarely done. But visually it was beautiful, seeing all the city lights in the streets. A rare lion dance performance in Downtown (located near the Boston Chinatown area) occurred during a Valentine's Day celebration. This part of the city has many shops and stores, a busy place for people doing lot of shopping. Those familiar with Chinese New Year - may realize that Lunar New Year often happen around this period. Which was a great way to show culture and awareness of the art of lion dance. The presence of both Western and Asian style cultures help to bring people together.
Lion dancing & drumming performance by Woo Ching White Crane. They often perform during the Boston Chinese Lion Dance Parade - an event with lettuce, oranges, red envelopes, and firecrackers in the streets. Woo Ching White Crane with the young generation also perform lion dance & traditional style Kung Fu during many festival community events. Event on February 10, 2023
Melbourne & San Francisco Chinatown USA and Boston are just some cities that have their own Chinese neighborhood communities with delicious food & restaurants as well as NYC or New York City which has its own Chinatown locations.
Lion dance is sometimes confused as the dragon dance - it is traditional dance in costume with head and tail that moves around like a cat and often happens during Tết and Chinese Lunar New Year or wedding events as well as store opening and festivals - containing elements that associates with prosperity, family, friends, community, art and good wealth as well as positive energy. 2024 is year of the dragon 🐲🐉.
