On 31 March 2026, the Confucius Institute(CI) for Chinese Medicine at the University of the Western Cape was invited to take part in the Employee Wellness Day. Through a combination of sporting activities and cultural performances, the CI’s teaching team demonstrated a positive and energetic spirit.

During the event, the teachers actively participated in a range of recreational sports, including a fun run, football, and domino games. In the cultural showcase segment, a Traditional Chinese Medicine instructor gave a live demonstration of Daoyin, a traditional Chinese therapeutic exercise. All Institute teachers then performed the Shaolin Lianhuan Quan, a routine characterised by a balance of strength and grace, vividly illustrating the essence of Chinese martial arts and wellness culture.

A TCM tea experience area was also arranged on site, offering attendees the opportunity to sample herbal teas while receiving explanations of their respective health benefits. The activity was well received by many participants.

With exercise and wellness as its central themes, the event not only strengthened bonds of friendship among local and international faculty and staff, but also served as an effective platform for the dissemination of traditional Chinese culture and the promotion of cross-cultural exchange and mutual enrichment.

Loved seeing the Confucius Institute team bring Daoyin and Shaolin Lianhuan Quan to the wellness day - such a cool mix of sports and TCM culture! I was actually cropping some event photos later with a circle crop image with border tool, and it made the martial arts shots look so much cleaner.

ball88.site mình mới lướt thử vì thấy mấy đứa bạn nhắc, kiểu vào xem cho biết thôi. Cảm giác đầu tiên là trang này làm theo kiểu “một hệ sinh thái” nên mọi thứ nằm chung một mạch, không phải bấm qua lại nhiều nơi mới hiểu. Mình cũng để ý họ có phần tổng quan điểm khác biệt đặt khá nổi, đọc lướt vài đoạn là nắm được họ hướng tới trải nghiệm nhanh và dễ dùng cho người Việt. Giao diện nhìn gọn, màu sắc vừa phải nên kéo xuống không bị mỏi mắt hay rối. Nói chung không cần ngồi soi lâu vẫn hiểu trang đang muốn nói gì nhờ các khối nội dung và menu điều…
