Tai Ji Chuan is our national sport. Why apply for World Heritage?
China's "Taiji Biography" project was approved by UNESCO's Intergovernmental Committee for the Protection of Intangible Cultural Heritage and listed in UNESCO's Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. As a traditional sports event with China traditional culture and self-cultivation elements, Tai Ji Chuan still faces many development difficulties. The reporter found that it will take some time for Taiji to spread "circle powder" to young people.

There are more and more practitioners.

But few young people take the initiative to participate.

At the beginning of last year, COVID-19 broke out. In Wuhan Dahuashan Fangcang Hospital and Nanjing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the third batch of members of the national medical team of traditional Chinese medicine, together with some COVID-19 patients, practiced Tai Ji Chuan and Baduanjin, and adjusted their bodies with external treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.

Practicing Tai Ji Chuan can not only cultivate self-cultivation, but also strengthen the body. Whether in the park square or the fitness center, more and more people are practicing Tai Ji Chuan. The reporter recently visited the Chen Taiji Museum in Nanjing Olympic Sports Center. At 7 o'clock in the evening, a dozen students are practicing Tai Ji Chuan under the guidance of the coach, and there is no ambiguity in every movement. According to the person in charge of the museum, over the past few years, they have trained more than 5000 people. The age group of students is mainly 40 -65 years old, and the oldest is 78 years old.

"Tai Ji Chuan is not only a kind of boxing, but also a kind of culture." Ms. Wu, who has been practicing Tai Ji Chuan for 8 years under her husband's leadership, said that long-term practice of Tai Ji Chuan has the function of strengthening the body. "We are all very happy to hear that Tai Ji Chuan has successfully applied for the World Heritage. We hope to change the inherent impression that Tai Ji Chuan is suitable for the elderly and infirm, so that Tai Ji Chuan culture can be better spread and developed among young people."

The person in charge of the Boxing Hall said that although the number of students has been on the rise in recent two years, there are still few young people who take the initiative to sign up to study in Tai Ji Chuan. "Most young people will still choose running or yoga, and Tai Ji Chuan is still a minority project among young people. In fact, Tai Ji Chuan is also very suitable for young people, especially the' low-headed family'. Practicing Tai Ji Chuan has a certain alleviating effect on lumbar cervical spondylosis. "

"I gave up after practicing for a while. Everyone was surprised to hear that I was practicing Tai Ji Chuan. Because of busy work, I didn't stick to it. " Zhou Xiao, a post-90s office worker, told reporters that there are few peers around to practice Tai Ji Chuan.

The success of applying for the World Heritage is well deserved.

This is of great benefit to promotion.

Taiji Zhuan was applied for the World Heritage 12 years ago, and it was applied for many times before. However, due to too many applications and other reasons, it passed by the world-class world heritage. Tai Ji Chuan's successful application for the World Heritage not only fulfilled Tai Ji Chuan's dream of applying for the World Heritage for more than 0/0 years, but also put an end to the possibility that Tai Ji Chuan was "squatted" by other countries.

Lan Jianhua, president of Yangzhou Tai Ji Chuan Association, believes that Tai Ji Chuan's successful application for World Heritage will further enhance Tai Ji Chuan's popularity, provide an opportunity for Tai Ji Chuan's popularization and development at home and abroad, and be more conducive to the expansion of related industries in Tai Ji Chuan.

Wang, dean of the Institute of Sports and Business Studies of Nanjing University of Science and Technology, said that Tai Ji Chuan, as a treasure of China's traditional culture, "should have been established as an intangible cultural heritage long ago" because "Tai Ji Chuan has had a great influence at home and abroad", and the success of this application can only be said to be deserved. "The application was successful.
