The lion dance originated in India or China. The lion is traditionally regarded as a guardian creature. It is featured in Buddist lore, being the mount of Manjusri.
Chinese Lion dances can be broadly categorised into two styles, Northern and Southern. Northern dance was used as entertainment for the imperial court. Southern dance is more symbolic. It is usually performed as a ceremony to exorcise evil spirit and to summon luck and fortune. The Lion Dance usually consists of two people. The lion dance has close relations to kung fu and the dancers are usually members of the local kung fu club. They practice in their club and some train hard to master the skill. (Wikepedia)
