on 8/2/2008 I'm sorry to say this but this is the worst I have ever seen. I've been a lion dance performer since a child and this is no where close to lion dance steps. This is an Asian art that takes many years to perfect. There should be a certain amount of strength in the snaps. That way the eyes would automatically blink on its own if you use enough force. If you insist on teaching, please teach the proper techniques or contact a school in Hong Kong for maybe a tutorial session.
