Many people’s impressions of Tai Chi remain "morning exercises for the elderly" or slow and rigid movements. However, they were once the champion of Tai Chi in the country and the cold pioneer who spread Tai Chi culture in Europe, Southeast Asia, Japan and other places. Due to the restrictions on entry and exit of the epidemic, he simply stayed In Hong Kong, Tai Chi was brought into kindergarten, and it worked well. Eight months later, a group of Tai Chi babies played well, which made the national champion more ambitious to bring Tai Chi and Tai Chi culture into early childhood education.
Teaching children Tai Chi is not new to him. Master Leng said that his son had already started practicing Tai Chi when he was a toddler. Now, by chance, he has the opportunity to bring Tai Chi into the kindergarten. He did not hesitate. Compared with cultivating apprentices to sprint awards, he thinks It is more important for more new generations to understand Tai Chi culture.
Some parents pointed out that after children learn Tai Chi, their leg strength increases and their physical coordination improves. They are no longer so easy to be "servants", and even parent-child relationship has improved a lot. "Some students will take the initiative to ask to fall to the park after a meal," Dad, I will teach you Tai Chi!""

In the 1990s, it became the national champion of the epidemic, and how to expand the influence of Tai Chi
In the 1980s, there was a movie "Shaolin Temple" that hit the air, setting off a wave of kung fu craze, and Leng Xianfeng started to get in touch with Tai Chi at that time.
He started practicing boxing at the age of 8, and had already become a national champion in the 1990s. After that, he came to Hong Kong through the "Excellent Talent Project" and began to teach Tai Chi culture in a wider range. Southeast Asia, Japan, Korea, Europe, and different countries around the world He was left behind.
Under the epidemic situation, going abroad has become difficult, and Leng Xianfeng was also worried about how to continue to expand the influence of the Tai Chi movement.

Hired the Supervisor of the Champion Kindergarten: Children should understand the most important line of Chinese culture
At this moment, He Guanghong, Supervisor of Right Thinking Kindergarten, "coarsely" extended an olive branch to Master Leng: "I know that Qu is a martial arts champion like Jet Li and Donnie Yen. It's just that you're a star performer, but it's unexpected. And I Knowing the masters, the most concern is the inheritance."
When you go out to communicate with others, people talk about Shakespeare, we can talk about Confucius, others talk about Boxing, and we talk about Tai Chi.
In cultural communication, we must share the best things.

He Guanghong believes that talented people need early education. On the one hand, of course, he hopes that children can keep fit; on the other hand, he also hopes that through this activity, students can learn about Chinese traditional culture.
Hong Kong is an international city, and he feels that it is more necessary for the next generation to understand their own culture: "When you go out to communicate with others, people talk about Shakespeare, we can talk about Confucius, others talk about Boxing (boxing), and we talk about Tai Chi. ? In cultural communication, we must share the best things."

"Master!" Every time before the formal teaching in the kindergarten, Leng Xianfeng and his wife's husband and wife teaching must salute each other with the students to show respect for each other.
When practicing boxing, in addition to explaining the movements, the two "masters" will also pay attention to some "active" children, and urge them to concentrate their minds and join the group practice process.
Compared with traditional physical education, Tai Chi can help children build self-confidence
In the past, Tai Chi was often associated with the elderly, and Leng Xianfeng said that this may be a misunderstanding.
For example, my family has practiced Tai Chi, and his son Leng Feihong has been practicing boxing since he could walk.
Compared with the previous physical training halls, he believes that Tai Chi can help children build self-confidence.
K3 girl plays Tai Chi and looks like her father: I don’t have any colds
Chen Xuanyin of K3 this year is a kid who learns Tai Chi from Master Leng.
In the past, her parents had been very careful to let her participate in sports, such as skating, dancing, etc., but because of the lack of leg strength, she often fell: "There are some leg movements that need to be maintained, so she often kicks and counts."
The contact for half a year made her progress a lot.
Not only does a set of Taijiquan look alike, but the body's strength has also become stronger.
Dad Chen said that his daughter once went home to perform a whole set of boxing techniques. They were all-inclusive, and they could keep standing upright on one foot for a long time.
Some children go home and even teach their parents to practice Tai Chi.

Chen Xuanyin is not alone. Both He Guanghong and Leng Xianfeng pointed out that many parents of students have reported that after children learn Tai Chi, they are excited and their relationship with their parents has improved: "Some parents said that children go back to teach and bury their parents. One student Take the initiative to ask to go to the park, saying "Dad, I will teach you Tai Chi!""

From the initial interest class with 7 or 8 students to the formal inclusion of the physical education curriculum, students from K1 to K3 in kindergartens now have to learn Tai Chi.
When practicing boxing on his own, Master Leng was both strong and soft, with a momentary movement, a momentary fist and fist brought the wind, and a few kicks were also quite vigorous.
He said that he can be fully engaged in his own boxing practice, but it is more difficult to lead the children in contact, because it is not only necessary to disassemble the movements, but also to pay attention to the state of each classmate. In addition, he is not mad at his dantian, so he is very diligent.
