Step into a world of vibrant tradition with the Chinese Dragon Dance, a spectacular display of culture and artistry! This ancient dance is a dynamic celebration that brings communities together with its powerful movements and colourful costumes and is one of the most anticipated events of Lunar New Year celebrations.
The dance symbolises strength, prosperity, and good fortune and is performed on auspicious occasions and wards off evil spirits and welcomes good fortune. Led by decades of experience, our Chinese Dragon Dance workshop remains the original and the best.

Who is it for?
We can cater for up to 8 sessions of 30 children per day, each focusing on the traditional Umbrella Dance, Fan Dance and Chinese Dragon Dance with authentic props.
Conclude the day with a once-in-a-lifetime performance by the children, showcasing what they’ve learned. Whilst available year-round, our Chinese Dragon Dance workshop is extremely popular during Chinese New Year and we would recommend booking early to avoid disappointment!
Our Chinese dragon dance workshop links perfectly to Chinese New Year, Cultural Weeks, International Days and Arts Week.
