Are you the owner of Jing Wo Cultural Association?
The Jing Wo Cultural Association, formerly known as the Jing Wo Martial Arts and Athletics Association of Canada, is a non-profit organization located in Calgary, AB, Canada. Affiliated with the Chin Woo Athletic Association, a global Martial Arts and Athletics Federation, the association aims to promote Chinese culture primarily through the art of Lion Dance.
Initially dedicated to promoting Chinese Wushu with the goal of making it an Olympic sport, the association's mission has expanded over the years to focus on preserving and promoting Chinese culture. The association provides a space for individuals interested in learning Lion Dance, allowing them to eventually join the Lion Dance Team for live performance events that showcase Chinese culture to the public.
In addition to promoting Chinese cultural practices, the Jing Wo Cultural Association also aims to bridge the gap between Canadian Born Chinese individuals and their cultural heritage. Through language and cultural exchanges, the association hopes to foster connections between different generations and facilitate discussions about the experiences and journeys of past generations.
The Jing Wo Lion Dance Team is a key component of the association, performing traditional Lion Dance at various events such as festivals, business openings, and special celebrations. The team consists of dedicated volunteers who bring energy and tradition to events while accompanied by live instrumentalists.
If you are interested in having the Jing Wo Lion Dance Team perform at your event, please contact the association with the details of the event. As a volunteer organization, early communication is appreciated to allow time for volunteer coordination. Join the Jing Wo Cultural Association in celebrating Chinese culture and traditions through the vibrant art of Lion Dance.
