On Tuesday, it was my distinct privilege to honor Yau Kung Moon San Francisco, a pioneer of world-class lion dance in the city and internationally.

Yau Kung Moon (YKM) has operated for over 50 years in San Francisco, setting the gold standard of lion dance performances winning competitions locally and internationally. Their lion dances have been a highlight to over 43 Lunar New Year Parades, countless grand openings, celebrations, and cultural events. YKM's outstanding performances bring immense positivity, cultural pride, and hope to the community.

The current generation of YKM is led by three fierce and dedicated Masters: Susan Yee, the only female YKM master; Richard Ow, who has dedicated over 25 years to preserving and teaching YKM; and Norman Lau, founder of Lion Dance Me. Under their leadership, YKM continues to thrive and bring people together in unity and joy.
