Dear International Faculty Members,
Greetings from the International Faculty Club at Peking University! We hope this letter finds you well, as we approach the start of a new semester.
Tai Chi (太極拳) is a traditional Chinese martial art that has been practiced for centuries, known for its health and wellness benefits. The movements of Tai Chi are both natural and elegant. You can feel the rhythm of music, the ideas of philosophy and the art of poems. In this high-class sport, sickness goes away and health comes. Nowadays, people who practice Tai Chi are all over China. You can see Tai Chi fans in parks, on streets and in stadiums.
To promote a better understanding of Tai Chi and provide an opportunity for our international faculty members to indulge in this ancient Chinese art form, PKU International Faculty Club is pleased to announce our upcoming Tai Chi Activity.
