On March 22nd, a group of international students from various countries, including France, Morocco, Korea, Madagascar and Ghana, gathered in the square of D9 learning Chinese traditional martial art, Taijiquan.
All the students are learning the movement of Taijiquan with strong interest. “This is the first time that I have learned Taijiquan. It is fascinating!” Monica from Morocco is particularly interested in Chinese culture and she says that she will keep on learning Taijiquan. Another Indonesian student has been quite familiar with Chinese Taijiquan for he has learnt it for over two weeks. “I like it!” He told the reporter joyfully.
The teachers say that as a popular sport all over China, Taijiquan is a kind of subtle movement. International students could not only enrich their extra curriculums but also understand Chinese culture better in the process of learning Taijiquan.
3月22日下午，东九教学楼前迎来了一批留学生。他们是在我校学习汉语的留学生，来自法国、摩洛哥、韩国、马达加斯加、加纳等国家。
10余名留学生认真观摩每个招式，像模像样地学了起来。“这是我第一次学习太极拳，很新鲜，很有意思”，来自摩洛哥的莫妮娅对中国文化特别感兴趣，“我以后要学习。”来自印尼的方日安倒是很熟悉太极拳的一招一式，“我已经学习两周了！我很喜欢！“
教授太极拳的程老师和刘老师介绍说，太极拳动作柔和，讲究积柔为刚，深受中国老百姓喜欢。留学生学习太极拳，不仅丰富了课余生活，而且更好地了解中国文化。
