Huang plays with the kittens on the street and observes the cats' every move as she gets a rare chance to watch lions. Her family did not understand her, and felt that it was dangerous and her income was low. "With more money or less money, I have enough to make a living," She says. " I've made my passion as a profession. Isn't this the happiest thing?"

On the wall of the training room, there is "No Taboo" sticker, a portrayal of the women's lion team: they are in awe of the tradition of lion dancing, and there is no distinction between men and women in dancing skills. For Huang, passing on the tradition is also her mission. Every week, Huang and the team members bring the lion dancing class to Sanzhou Primary School. On weekends, parents take their children to the base to study. Half of these students are girls.
