Where do you buy the lion head frame for practice I just started and I need it for practice 😅
@5elementsld
@5elementsld 2 ай бұрын
The frame is just from a lion head manufacturer. You can ask suppliers if they will sell the frame. The supplier we got ours from is unfortunately no longer in business.

The video shows how to hold the head in a general way. To hold higher you can push the head outwards and up, usually with the head at a 45 degree angle down.

I recently became interested in lion dancing but at the moment I can't get a lion head to practice with. Do you reccomend anything else I can use just to get me used to it or should I wait (about a year) until I can get a lion head?
@5elementsld
@5elementsld 5 ай бұрын
Hi, @notAme_Yomi! I'd recommend an oval-shaped laundry basket over your head. This is good practice with being unable to see well (#1 spatial awareness). A basket is larger than your head and will also help for getting used to the lion size (#2). If that is too silly, you can also use a small hula hoop, although you lose being able to practice limited vision. #3 Weight. Hold 5-10 lbs dumbbells in >both< hands while pretending you're in the lion. Drill lion stances or your performance routine. This will help with endurance and your arms/shoulders for the lion weight. Nowadays, Hoksan lions average to be about 10 lbs and a well-decorated Futsan around 20 lbs. This isn't very heavy, but performances are usually 10-15 mins long or even more. Most people aren't used to holding that weight away from their body for that long. #4 Stances. Even without a lion head, laundry basket/hula hoop, or weights, you can practice lion stances. Footwork and horse stance 馬步 is very important. In practice, if someone is struggling to get a move, VJ or I often just say, "bend your knees" or "馬步!" and then they get it :) Welcome to lion dancing!

How are your hands and arms positioned when you pull on one ear?
@5elementsld
@5elementsld 5 ай бұрын
Hi, Winson! I'm able to support the lion head with only my left arm for short periods; it's like holding a pizza box with one hand. My right-hand (dominant) reaches up to tug on whichever ear string I'm trying to manipulate. I pull the string quite close to where the lion ear connects - this prevents accidentally pulling on other strings and making the lion look like it's half-asleep or wiggling both ears when you only want one. If you struggle with holding the lion head steady with one arm, practice using the head-pad inside the lion too! Your head/neck can help your arm for balancing the lion while your other hand is doing something else (adjusting a qing, collecting a hongbao, advanced eye/ear movements, etc.). Hope that helps!

I don't like the look of the Hok San Lion Head, it looks goofy, I prefer the old classic traditional style Futsan style, it looks way much better than the Hok San Style. It does look like a duck rather than a Lion Head. That'd why I don't like the look of the Hok San Lion Head, it's ugly. The Hok San Lion Head is lighter than the old traditional Futsan style, different materials used, that's why the Hok San Style is used in major competitions because it weighs much less than the Futsan style. They should use lighter materials but still use the Futsan style when making Lion Heads, simply because the Futsan style looks better than the Hok San duck lip Lion Head.
