I thought I was quite fit, but you use every part of your body, don't you?
我还以为我身体蛮好呢,可这得动用全身的力量,是吗
Yeah. Every muscle.
是的。每一块肌肉
So that is where the kung fu comes in, that... that physical training.
这就是功夫有用地方,这是种体育锻炼
And you are all absolutely working as a team, don't you?
而且还要绝对地协调一致,是吗
Like breathe together. Yeah.
连呼吸都要同步。对。
How long have you been doing this?
您舞龙有多少年头了
Because my father is the master, maybe in my mother's... inside my mother.
因为我父亲就是舞龙大师,也许在我娘胎里就开始了
You were dragon dancing before you were born! Yeah.
你一出生就注定是舞龙的啦。是的
But dancing dragons are not the only creatures that play a part in New Year celebrations.
但新年庆典中,舞动的龙并不是唯一的动物
There are lions that dance, too.
还有舞狮
Only the most advanced kung fu artists are allowed to be lion dancers.
只有功夫最高超的师傅才有资格舞狮
It takes two performers in complete synchronicity, like a highly acrobatic pantomime horse.
两名表演者需要完全同步,这类似于技艺高超的哑剧马
Really interesting is that you know, for many people, a lion is a frightening animal, but here it is funny, comic.
真是有意思,对许多人来说,狮子是让人生畏的动物。不过在这里,狮子又有趣又滑稽
Yeah. Frightening is just one face for the lion.
是啊。让人害怕只是狮子的一面
He also has many other faces. Right.
它还有很多其它特点。对
Just like now, he is drinking wine. It's brilliant.
就像现在,它在喝酒。太精彩了
We will always create some new story to let the performance more modern.
我们总是会编些新故事,使表演更有现代特点
More modern, yeah. It's brilliant.
是的,更现代。太精彩了
