Journalist: Leah,you’ve been practising tai chi for more than 20 years and now you’ve decided to set up a tai chi school here in the UK. What was it that first attracted you to the sport
Leah: I love watching kung fu films,so I took kung fu classes. Through these classes,I discovered tai chi and fell in love with it at once.
Journalist: You now visit China every year. Can you tell me something about your first trip here
Leah: That was six years ago. For me,visiting China was a dream come true. On that first trip,I went to Yangshuo in
Guangxi.
Journalist: Why did you choose Yangshuo
Leah: The main reason was that one of the greatest masters of tai chi lives there. I’d also heard a lot about the beautiful natural views of the area.
Journalist: What challenges did you face studying in China Leah: The biggest challenge was learning to understand and speak Chinese. Another was practising some of the basic skills that I thought I had learnt years ago. Oh yes,and I wasn’t that fond of the early morning starts,either!
Journalist: What makes you not give up and keep going
Leah: Firstly,what I get from tai chi makes up for the hard work and challenges. It helps me relax and brings me peace inside,and is a simple way to deal with pressure. As well as being good for your mind,tai chi can help improve your physical abilities. That’s why I set up a tai chi school in the UK.
