Aiping Tai Chi & Wu Dang Kung Fu Academy In CHINA Grandmaster Aiping, students and parents spent an amazing 4 weeks traveling and training in China. The initial group of 18 headed to JFK International Airport July 11th where the adventure began with a 13 hour flight to Beijing. Upon arrival our Connecticut team was joined by a group of students and parents from California. The first week took the travelers to many historic places that included, in Beijing, the Forbidden City and the Great Wall of China. In Shanghai we visited The Pearl Tower, as well as many beautiful gardens and temples. The next leg of the trip brought the group to Hangzhou hometown of Grandmaster Aiping. It is said "above there is heaven on earth there is Hangzhou." The Zhejiang University Student Hotel on the campus of the Zhejiang University was home to the group for the rest of the trip as training, an intense 6 hours Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and 3 hours Tuesdays and Thursdays, begin. The touring did not stop for the group. Hangzhou has many beautiful and historic places to visit including West Lake, beautiful temples and gardens. The students had the privilege of training with some of the best in the world, members of the Zhejiang Provincial Professional Wushu Team, for these 3 weeks in preparation for the Qingchunbao Cup Zhejiang International Traditional Wushu Tournament (please see International Events for results of the competition) held on August 5th and 6th. The tournament events came to a close with a banquet for the competitors that also served as a farewell for our group to the students and parents from California and the teachers from the Zhejiang team. The group returned home on August 7th. It was a wonderful trip for all. |
