SUMMARY:Lion Dance Performance: Portland Shishimai Kai
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, Sept. 5 at 1:00 PM & Sunday\, Sept. 6 at 4:00 PM | Free with admission or membership \n\n\n\n\nSummary\n\n\n\nGroup Bio\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\nParking\n\n\n\n\nExperience Overview\n\n\n\nWe’re thrilled to have Portland Shishimai Kai join us to perform shishimai\, the traditional Japanese lion dance. This style is completely different from the colorful leaping lions you may be used to seeing during Lunar New Year and other Lan Su special events. Shishimai features a single costumed lion dancer alongside a group of musicians playing a gentler music than the traditional drums and cymbals of Chinese lion dance. Don’t miss this incredibly rare opportunity to experience another style of lion dance at Lan Su! \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Portland Shishimai Kai\n\n\n\n\n\nPortland Shishimai Kai is dedicated to preserving the Edo Kotobuki Jishi (traditional celebratory shishimai of Tokyo) as well as Ryomen Odori (double mask dance) and Edo Bayashi (traditional festival music of Tokyo). The group is closely mentored by Kyosuke Suzuki\, an integral member of Wakayama Taneo Shachu which is designated in Japan as a Nationally Important Intangible Cultural Asset in Folk Arts. The group founder and leader is Eien Hunter-Ishikawa.

SUMMARY:Lion Dance Performance: Chinese Friendship Association of Portland
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, Sept. 6 | 1:00 PM | Free with admission or membership \n\n\n\n\nSummary\n\n\n\nAbout CFAP\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\nParking\n\n\n\n\nExperience Overview\n\n\n\nCFAP’s youth lion dance team will perform a Southern-style Chinese lion dance to spread joy to visitors as we close out Lion Dance & Kung Fu Weekends. The southern lion dance originated in Guangdong\, and it’s the style popular in Hong Kong\, Macau\, and the hometowns of overseas Chinese. The southern lion dance is a performance based on the study of a lion’s behavior\, with an emphasis on actions like scratching\, shaking the body\, and even napping. Performances are vivid\, entertaining\, and often comical. \n\n\n\nIn Chinese culture\, the lion symbolizes power\, wisdom\, and superiority. People perform lion dances at festivals or big occasions to bring good fortune and chase away evil spirits. Come join us and get some of that good luck for yourself! \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout CFAP\n\n\n\nChinese Friendship Association of Portland (CFAP) is a nonprofit and community-based organization founded in 1993. With a focus on youth leadership development and education\, they aim to foster a deep appreciation for Chinese culture and inspire the next generation through culturally enriching programs. They formed their youth lion and dragon dance team with the help of supportive parents. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Admission\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLan Su Members \n\n\n\nPlus eligible guests (Learn more) \n\n\n\n\nFree \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdults \n\n\n\nAges 19-61 \n\n\n\n\n$19.00 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeniors & Students \n\n\n\nAges 62+ and students 18+ with ID \n\n\n\n\n$18.00 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYouth \n\n\n\nAges 6-18 \n\n\n\n\n$16.00 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChild \n\n\n\nAges 5 & under \n\n\n\n\nFree \n\n\n\n\nLooking for additional discounts?

This style is completely different from the colorful leaping lions you may be used to seeing during Lunar New Year and other Lan Su special events.

Don’t miss this incredibly rare opportunity to experience another style of lion dance at Lan Su! \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Portland Shishimai Kai\n\n\n\n\n\nPortland Shishimai Kai is dedicated to preserving the Edo Kotobuki Jishi (traditional celebratory shishimai of Tokyo) as well as Ryomen Odori (double mask dance) and Edo Bayashi (traditional festival music of Tokyo). The group is closely mentored by Kyosuke Suzuki\, an integral member of Wakayama Taneo Shachu which is designated in Japan as a Nationally Important Intangible Cultural Asset in Folk Arts. The group founder and leader is Eien Hunter-Ishikawa.

SUMMARY:Stories Behind the Martial Arts: One With Heart

Through conversation\, live demonstrations\, and audience Q&A\, discover the traditions\, symbolism\, and training behind this timeless practice.  \n\n\n\nWhat is Pukulan?\n\n\n\nPukulan is a style of the Indonesian martial art known as Silat. The name Pukulan comes from the Indonesian word “to strike” and means “a series of blows with returning hands and feet.” Pukulan practitioners throw rapid\, whip-style strikes out of flowing movement derived from four animal styles: monkey\, tiger\, crane\, and snake. These traditional styles were born from a time when practitioners found strength in a connection with the natural world by embracing animal movements. \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout One With Heart\n\n\n\nEstablished in 1981\, One With Heart is an independent\, woman-owned martial arts and self-defense school in Portland\, Oregon. As part of the community\, we have continuously provided students\, parents\, families\, and businesses with outstanding classes and self-defense seminars. \n\n\n\nOne With Heart’s team of expert teachers is dedicated to improving lives through excellent martial arts and self-defense training.

SUMMARY:Martial Arts Performance: Many Roads Martial Arts
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, Aug. 30 & Saturday\, Sept. 5 | 2:00 PM | Free with admission or membership \n\n\n\n\nSummary\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\nParking\n\n\n\n\nExperience Overview\n\n\n\nJoin members of Many Roads Martial Arts as they demonstrate various specialties\, such as Shaolin Kung Fu and Kali — a weapons-based Filipino style of martial arts. Watch in wonder as they punch\, kick\, and move with precision! \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Performers\n\n\n\nParticipation in this demo may vary. \n\n\n\nJenny Lohr\, Owner/Instructor\n\n\n\nJenny has been practicing Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi since 2005. As the owner of Many Roads Martial Arts Center\, her focus is nurturing a supportive and safe learning environment while challenging everyone to keep growing and improving. Jenny loves the physical and mental challenges of martial arts and is very excited to share them with the students and instructors at the center. \n\n\n\nJay Twitchell\, Instructor\n\n\n\nJay has studied various martial arts systems including boxing\, wrestling\, judo\, karate\, taekwondo\, aikido\, hopkido\, kumdo\, and muay thai kick boxing since he was 10. In other words\, he has been used as a punching bag for over 30 years by masters and lifelong practitioners of these systems. His lifetime of experience getting kicked\, punched\, choked\, kneed\, elbowed\, and thrown are invaluable in teaching others how not to be. Balancing his martial studies\, Jay has 20 years of experience as a massage therapist and movement specialist\, offering him a deep knowledge of the human body and healthy practice. \n\n\n\nMyk Olsen\, Instructor\n\n\n\nMyk has been a Tai Chi Chuan practitioner since 1997 and has been teaching since 2013. His primary teachers were Gao Jamin and Yu Shaowen. Over the years\, Myk has learned a multitude of forms in Yang\, Chen\, Wu\, and Sun styles—both open-hand and weapons (straight sword\, broadsword\, staff\, spear\, cane\, deerhorn knives\, and daggers). While he used to compete in both forms and Push-Hands\, Myk now focuses more time on teaching. His teaching style is student-centered and is focused on achieving a balance between the meditative and martial aspects of the forms. Myk also teaches a Tai Chi class specifically geared toward those with mobility and balance issues on Sunday afternoon. \n\n\n\nJoel\, Instructor\n\n\n\nA lifetime student of martial arts\, Joel has been training Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi since 1999 and teaching since 2009. His teaching goal is to provide tools to improve every student’s physical\, mental\, and emotional health in a supportive\, encouraging learning environment. Joel’s primary teaching focus is Chen Tai Chi as taught by Master George Xu (Xu Guo Ming). He also teaches our black belt Shaolin curriculum\, Yang style Tai Chi\, and 5 Element Qi Gong. \n\n\n\nWebsite | Facebook | Instagram \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Admission\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLan Su Members \n\n\n\nPlus eligible guests (Learn more) \n\n\n\n\nFree \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdults \n\n\n\nAges 19-61 \n\n\n\n\n$19.00 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeniors & Students \n\n\n\nAges 62+ and students 18+ with ID \n\n\n\n\n$18.00 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYouth \n\n\n\nAges 6-18 \n\n\n\n\n$16.00 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChild \n\n\n\nAges 5 & under \n\n\n\n\nFree \n\n\n\n\nLooking for additional discounts?
