Qin Qian

Professional Erhu Player

Qin Qian is a professional Erhu player and teacher in Philadelphia. When Qin Qian was 20, she received a BA of performance of Erhu from the Guangxi Arts College, China. Then she authored two Chinese books, “My Dreams Fly With Music,” and “A Musical Journey in America.” She was also the featured soloist and composer in a concert in Nanning, China, while accompanied by the Guangxi Symphony Orchestra. She became the first person to hold a solo Erhu and monochord concert among Chinese broadcasters.

Her concerts have mixed the Erhu and other Chinese instruments with different musical styles, including classical, jazz, opera, and pop. There are no borders in music, Qin Qian’s life is colorful because of music!

Fong's Hung Ga Kung Fu Association

Lion Dancers

Lion dancing at Fong’s Hung Ga is an experience that takes students to many different places and allows them to express an art form not commonly seen on a daily basis. Lion dance is also an intense physical workout that is integral to Hung Ga as it conditions and builds muscles gained by our students during their regular classroom training. It also further instills in our students the importance of proper stances as lion dancing utilizes each stance in the Hung Ga system and is dependent on the performer not only having knowledge of each stance, but also having trained enough to execute each movement without losing their balance or falling short on stamina.
