Staten Island Lions was founded in 2004 by Master Glenn Chin and is sponsored by Pride Development & Construction Inc. SIL started as a small group performing at local events and have grown with many new members dedicated to the art of Lion Dancing and Martial Arts. We now perform at birthdays, Grand Openings, weddings, martial arts events, charities and the numerous events for New York's Chinatown community such as: Lunar New Year celebrations, Firecracker Ceremonies, Independence Day Parade, Autumn Moon Festivals and Labor Day Parade. It's been an honor to have this opportunity to instill our heritage in the youths of the new generation and may they keep it alive!

Join Us!

Our team consists of Lion Dancers, Drummers, Cymbal and Gong Players, and other support members. The members are constantly changing because of school or work. We look for new members every year especially in the 2 months leading up to Chinese New Year. If you think that you might want to be part of The Staten Island Lions email us at info@silions.com
