Southern Style Lion Dance
南方的舞狮
The southern style Lion Dance has become an extension of the Chinese Martial spirit, and is always performed by students of Kung Fu. Following the Lion Dance, you will see forms, or choreographed routines, performed by the Lion Dancers. The early martial artists, studying in Buddhist temples, imitated the fighting styles of the animals in nature that they observed such as the tiger and the crane, the primary styles taught at the AMAS. Other styles include the leopard，praying mantis, eagle, snake and dragon. The forms you will see imitate the movements and characteristics of these animals.
南方风格的舞狮已成为中国武术精神的延伸，并经常由学功夫的学生表演。继狮舞后，你会看到制作好的，或精心设计的活动，由醒狮队进行表演。早期的武术家，在佛教寺庙学习，模仿战斗风格，他们观察老虎和鹤等，最初风格是受教于自然界中动物的自然攻击系统。其它样式包括豹，螳螂，老鹰，蛇和龙。你会看到模仿动物的动作和特征的形式。
