Lion dance is a sport unlike many others which we see today. Coming from traditional Chinese culture, this particular art-turned-sport has got thousands of years to back it up.
The Genting World Lion Dance Championship saw its 13th instalment in 2018 located right inside the Arena of Stars. With 36 lion dance troupes from all over the world, the event was truly magnificent in all its glory.
There were many moments which had the audience wowed while some moments left fans worried. All sorts of sport brings about a certain level of risk but lion dance is on a whole different level.
Imagine jumping from one pole to another, they're all taller than you and much further apart than the average step.
