A group of foreign college students' initial experience of Tai Chi
2023-07-10
In only four days, Ma Du, an Egyptian student from South China Normal University in Jiaozuo, Henan Province, the birthplace of Taijiquan, learned the Eleven Essential Moves of Chen-style taijiquan. This was his first time to learn Taijiquan. He said laughingly, "It's one step closer to his childhood dream of becoming a kungfu master". On July 9, more than 60 members who participated in the 2023 "Generation Z" Chinese Kung Fu (Taijiquan) international promotion "Please in" activity training camp showed their learning achievements in Henan Polytechnic University. With the melodious Chinese traditional music, these foreign college students slowly rise, lift their arms, bend their knees, cloud hands, shake their feet... The eleven essential movements of Chen-style taijiquan were more accurately interpreted by them. The music stopped, and applause and cheers lingered in the gym to celebrate their successful display. On July 9th, Egyptian student Madu (right) presented his Tai Chi learning achievements. The "Taiji Impression" in Han Zhangyun's film and television works are composed of both college students from Russia and overseas students from Zhengzhou University, Henan Polytechnic University, South China Normal University and other universities. They come from Egypt, Iran, Morocco, Ghana, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Syria, Ukraine and other countries. For most of them, their initial impression of Chinese martial arts such as Tai Chi comes almost entirely from movies and TV dramas. ▲ On July 9, international college students showed their learning achievements of Taijiquan. I have watched many Chinese kung fu movies, and Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan are my favorite kung fu stars. "Pakistani student Chen You told China News Network that in Pakistan, many people believe that Chinese kung fu is mysterious and loved by many people. He is one of the fans." I didn't expect to have the opportunity to learn Chinese kung fu in the birthplace of Tai Chi after coming to China for 6 months, and I feel lucky. Indonesian student Chen Guanglong told reporters that Tai Chi is very popular in Indonesia. Learning a complete set of Tai Chi this time is his first attempt and has also changed his impression of Tai Chi. He said: "It is impossible for me to become a kung fu master by relying on Taijiquan, but it can strengthen my body and also contains rich philosophical ideas, which is the essence of Chinese culture." Chen Jiagouli seeks the root of "the source of Taijiquan" This training camp is guided by the Information Office of the Henan Provincial Government, hosted by Henan Polytechnic University, Henan International Communication Center, etc., and aims to carry out the international communication of Taijiquan culture for the "Generation Z", Deepen cultural exchanges and mutual learning. Therefore, entering Chenjiagou, the birthplace of Tai Chi in Jiaozuo, Henan, to understand the origin of Tai Chi is an important course in the training camp. ▲ Training camp members walked into the birthplace of Tai Chi, Jiaozuo Chenjiagou. On July 6th, Han Zhangyun and his team came to Chenjiagou, Wen County, Jiaozuo to watch a Tai Chi performance at a Tai Chi training school. They interacted with professional martial arts athletes and took photos as a souvenir. Visit the Ancestral Temple of Taijiquan and the Chinese Taijiquan Museum, learn about the ideas and background of Taijiquan, listen to the experience of Yang Luchan, the founder of Yang's Taijiquan, and experience the training props of Taijiquan. In Chenjiagou, Tanya, a Russian student from Zhengzhou University, made a special trip to buy
