2016安泰留学生中国文化系列活动—武术课程
Kick off！Kungfu Class for International Students——2016 International Student Activities
2016年9月30日下午，25名安泰留学生参加了由国际合作与交流办公室组织的中国武术课程，体验这门以往只能在电影电视上看到，略显神秘又充满魅力的中国文化。
武术课程的两位授课老师均为在国际与国内武术大赛中获奖的专业武术指导，蔡老师是全国武术比赛亚军、国际武术交流赛季军，张老师则是全国传统武术比赛冠军、国际武术博览会冠军。
经过充分的热身之后，蔡老师首先教授同学们经典的五步拳。老师先是带着大家分解动作练习，接着一个个指正动作和力度。马步、仆步、出拳、挑掌……通过不断的练习，同学们很快掌握了完整流畅的五步拳动作。而在接下来更高难度的少林拳法的学习中，同学们不仅没有感到疲惫，反而更加兴致高涨地接受了挑战，一遍遍地练习踢腿和转身，争先恐后地要求老师给予指导，甚至在休息时间也自发组成小组练习，互相纠正动作。本次课程还吸引了之前的留学生学员再次参与，主动充当助教的角色，帮助老师给予其他同学示范。在老师和助教的悉心指导下，同学们在第一堂中就展现了令人惊喜的进步。
初秋的交大校园，天高气爽，落叶缤纷，留学生们学习武术的身姿也成了校园里一道美丽的风景，吸引了路人驻足赞许的眼光，有些孩童老人还一起加入了练习的队伍。一个半小时的课程结束后，同学们依旧恋恋不舍，拉着老师想要了解更多武术的奥妙。
武术课程属于安泰留学生五大主题活动之一的China Class，由安泰国际合作与交流办公室主办，共三次课程，自2016年春季学期第一次开班以来，一直受到留学生们的热情追捧。活动满足了许多留学生对于中国武术长久以来的好奇和向往，在强身健体的同时，又能帮助留学生更好地了解博大精深的中国文化，加深对中国的热爱。
On September 30, 2016, 25 international students participated in a Chinese Kungfu Class organized by ACEM International Office, making the first step to their long-coveted kungfu dream.
After traditional kungfu-style greetings and warm-up, the two masters, an international martial arts champion and a national martial arts silver medalist kicked off the first lesson by teaching students the classic five-step routine. Students were guided to practice step by step, from horse stand, stretching to bow standing, leaning and hit. Passionate as they were, all participants picked up the routine quite quickly. In light of their outstanding performance, the masters decided to level up the game and teach them the Shaolin Quan routine, where more kicking and stretching were required. Students became even more high-spirited facing the difficulties. Two senior students from the last Kungfu Class in the spring semester volunteered to be the teaching assistants, helping the rookies with the moves and strength.
On this beautiful early-autumn afternoon, the Kungfu-practising international students became an attractive sight on campus. The class also drew some locals to come along and join the practice. At the end of the class, students were reluctant to leave and continued practicing the routines they have just learnt. Even the two masters were surprised by their energy and enthusiasm.
Organized by the International Office of ACEM, the Kungfu Class is held every other Friday afternoon from September to October. It is a part of the China Class series for international students to learn a wide spectrum of Chinese culture.
