In the streets of Qiantong township in Ningbo, East China's Zhejiang province, a parade with young lion dancers, hopping mischievously to the beats of drums and gongs, became the topic of discussion last week.
The lion dance team, composed mainly of primary and secondary school students from the township, debuted their first public performance on Sunday after going through intense training during their winter break.
The children's coach, Tong Panfeng, is a Qiantong native filled with passion and a heart to revitalize this dying traditional performance.
