As a pillar of China's intangible cultural legacy, the lion dance embodies the centuries-old heritage of kung fu. Its vibrant movements, characterized by bounding leaps and agile pounces, are rooted in fundamental martial stances, such as that of the horse. The rhythms and stunts of the dance are governed by key tenets of martial arts, such as breath mastery and energy circulation. This union of explosive vigor and supple elegance makes the lion dance a living emblem of China's philosophy of harmonious strength, where martial rigor mixes with festive tradition.
