Wushu Team

Bryant Irawan
The ICAA Wushu Team instructed by Teddy
Yusuf also includes a brawny Lion Dance Team instructed
by Mr. Phelie Djie and Michael Lee. Together the Lion Dance
crew and the Wushu team put a breathtaking performance anywhere,
anytime. Although they might have talent, all of the members
have practiced and practiced for a few years to reach their
goal of setting an extravagant performance for everybody
of all ages. The team practices every Saturday and Sunday
starting from 3:00p.m. to 6:00p.m. In Duarte Inn. Along
the way, you will build a more durable body and will remain
healthy while meeting new people and acquaintances. You
will then be able to perform Wushu either with the Lion
or without. The usual Wushu performance consists of routines
of weapons and/or basic fist and kicking techniques.

The Lion Dance was originally started in
China to scare bad luck and evil. The Lion Dance can usually
be seen near Chinese New Year to start a fresh and prosperous
year. The Lion was thought to be an agent from heaven sent
down to protect, or scare away any mischief going on. However,
the Lion fooled around disobeying duties, so its body parts
were scattered all over the world. A pea sent then fitted
all the pieces together and the lion then started to chase
off evil and bad luck once again. Now a day, people all
over the world have been competing in Lion Dance tournaments
or performing to scare off evil like the original lion did
back in China. Opening businesses also hire Lion Dancers
to bring in good luck and frighten evil.
