Weekly practices are held in the Gym at Lincoln Recreation Center every Friday
from 4:30pm to 6:00pm. Lion dance group is a non-profit organization, all donations
received from our performances are put into the AYSC general fund. Which helps
support our scholarships, dances, retreats, new lion dance equipment, and more.
AYSC is proud to have a lion dance group in which youth of all ages and ethnical
backgrounds come together from all over the Bay Area to share this common interest.
We welcome anyone who is interested in learning and understanding traditional
Chinese (Southern) Lion Dance and/or Martial Arts. Besides from just learning
martial arts and lion dancing, members also have many opportunities to perform
for the community in events such as the Lunar New Year Parade, Dragon Boat Race,
Oakland A's Game, StreetFest, Festival At The Lake, weddings, birthdays, grand
opening and etc. We've also participated in the 2000 Okinawate Karate Challenge,
1998-2000 StreetFest Lion Dance Competition, 1997 Wong Tat Mau's International
Chinese Martial Arts Lion Dance Competition, and the Northern California Martial
Arts Tournament in 1995. The group has been recognized in the community through
the media such as appearing in numerous newspapers and being guests on Kids@rt,
the Rosy Chu Show, and other television broadcasts.
