Michelle Obama Tries Tai Chi While In Chengdu, China
First Lady
Michelle Obama tried out performing a few Tai Chi moves in the city of
Chengdu, China this week. The First Lady was in China for a six-day,
three-city tour of the
country which included Beijing, Xi’an, and Chengdu. While in Chengdu,
the last city on the tour, she gave a speech to more than 700 school
students in the local stadium.
As part of the events for the First Lady, the students of Chengdu No. 7 High School in Sichuan province gave her a demonstration of Tai Chi Chuan. After watching the performance, Michelle Obama tried out a few Tai Chi moves with the High School students.
Tai Chi “is a truly beautiful form of physical activity & I loved giving it a try” – quote by First Lady Michelle Obama.
With the popularity of each First Lady, the way they wear their hair,
their fashion sense, and the clothes that they wear are often admired by
many, and can even effect public trends. Let’s hope that this is true
with the First Lady’s activities as well. Perhaps more people will take
up interest in Tai Chi Chuan thanks to First Lady Michelle Obama’s public relations impromptu joining in and trying out some Tai Chi!
