Our story and cultural heritage

Sydney Yun Yee Tong Dragon & Lion Dance has been preserving authentic martial arts and cultural dance traditions across Sydney since 1985. Discover our journey, our values, and the dedicated family behind every drumbeat.

Honouring our roots since 1985

Originating in Vietnam, our martial arts lineage was brought to Sydney where our Grand Master established Sydney Yun Yee Tong in 1985. Driven by a deep commitment to cultural preservation, we have spent nearly four decades passing on the discipline, artistry, and spirit of authentic lion and dragon dance to new generations across New South Wales.

United as one family

Our team is composed of passionate students, skilled instructors, assistants, and senior practitioners who train together with shared purpose. Beyond athletic movement and performance techniques, we nurture core values of respect, teamwork, trust, care, and commitment, creating a supportive community where every member thrives.

Celebrating community across Sydney

From premier celebrations such as the Cabramatta Moon Festival and Sydney Lunar New Year festivities to grand openings and private weddings, our team delivers unforgettable energy and blessing ceremonies. Continuing our Grand Master’s legacy, we take immense pride in sharing vibrant traditions with diverse audiences.

"Sydney Yun Yee Tong brought incredible energy, artistry, and genuine cultural tradition to our celebration. Their discipline and teamwork are truly inspiring."
