| Lee's Golden Dragon was established in 1974 based on Sifu Allen Lee's goal of bringing the lion dance to Houston, Texas. Sifu Lee originally began his lion dance studies during college with a Chinese-American dance company based in San Francisco, California, and he never missed the weekly practice sessions despite having to endure four-hour roundtrip bus rides to attend each practice. Upon his return to Houston, Sifu Lee continued his enthusiasm and dedication to create Lee's Golden Dragon. Throughout its history, Lee's Golden Dragon has incorporated a diverse range of dance styles including Northern lion dancing, Chinese ballet, Chinese acrobatics and, most recently, the exciting style of competition-level pole performances. Now, Lee's Golden Dragon embarks on a new journey: bringing Texas lion dancing to the rest of the world. |
