There are generally three factors that are needed to make up the Lion Dance: the head, the tail, and the drum or musical section. The musical section is normally made up of: a drum, a gong, and multiple pairs of cymbals.
The most recognizable positions in a lion dance troupe are either the Lion's head or the drum. The tail position is often overlooked by most people and is undoubtedly one of the most difficult roles to play. The person whom is the tail must make sure that she/he follows every step that the head makes every time and also follow the music. She/he is also required to be couched over in an uncomfortable position in order to operate the tail. With recent evolutions of the lion dance, the tail becomes more important with the number of stunts and acrobatic tricks that are used today.

The Garth dance is a ritual of seduction that is performed to "foxy Lady" and involves much pelvic thrusting.

Get the Dance of Italymug. "Dude, I saw this Youtube video of Obama poll dancing backstage after giving his presidential address. Funny shit, man."
"Wow, I didn't know Obama was so talented. I guess social laws are going to be a LOT looser than before."
"Naw, man. Not THAT kind of pole dancing."

Get the poll dancingmug. A dance in which a male human plants their feet, twists in place from left to right, extends both pointer fingers, bends both arms, and moves them in a chopping/ running motion (first right then left; not at the same time), and nods their head. When all steps are done simultaneously, a dance is created that women and Bono can not do (due to their inferior dexterity to men).

Get the Floop Dancemug. a dance of presumably Dutch heritage, commonly performed by only the most professional highschoolers in Holland, Michigan. Once you dutch dance, and persevere through weeks of walking around in wooden torture devices, your legacy of greatness is forever upheld as generation after generation look up to your great act of selflessness. Not to mention, who doesn't look great in a little Dutch boy costume? Dutch Dance - A Club for the Finest
After Omar joined Dutch dance (an extremely intensive legit sport), his life was forever changed for the better, and he prospered and bloomed like a beautiful tulip.
