Practicing Dragon Dance demands for the practitioner to move fast and have an agile body to imitate the "dragon" in Chinese mythology and in Chinese Tradition, it is said that this dragon dance can bring good luck to people. Other than bringing luck, it is said that the longer the dragon, the more luck the dragon brings to people.
