In order to maintain the best performance, her weight has been kept at about 37 kilograms, and as she is wearing a lion head of 2 or 3 kg, movement can be difficult.

Huang has found a niche for female lion dancers. "Boys are good at masculinity. They are all about hard bridges and squats. We girls play with details," she says.

The lion dancing has a cute and naughty side. The laziness of the lion coming out of the cave, the suspicious appearance in exploring the cave, the mischievousness of playing in the water, the greediness of eating ... Huang is very confident in these static movements. Girls are more expressive, she says.
