Hello Lil Leopard parents,
As part of our intelligent curriculum, we are focusing on our traditional tenets, the Lion Dance! The Lion Dance will help introduce our youngest students to the significance of the dance, which is to bring good luck! We will be learning how to Lion Dance while working towards a performance at our Chinese New Year banquet.
In order for us to prepare for the banquet, your engagement will be key. On November 22 we will be sending home a lion for you and your child to finish decorating and make their own. Please make sure their name is on the inside!
We ask that starting December 6, that you bring your child’s lion to every class for us to start learning and practicing our lion dance. Each week, we will post a short video with what we covered in class so that you can practice with your child.
Our Chinese New Year Banquet is on February 10, 2024 and we encourage you to attend with your child. You and your child (and/or your whole family) will experience amazing Chinese food, lion dance and dragon dance performances (both from children and teen/ adults), performances from our I Ho Chuan team and a Black Belt ceremony where a select few students are promoted to the rank of black. Tickets will be available soon!
If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to one of your children’s instructors.
