For the Chinese embassy in Lithuania, this project is an invitation to exchange and to overcome differences between the countries. In words of Mr CHEN, Economic and Commercial Counsellor:

Every year we invite some of our Lithuanian friends and colleagues to take part in various kinds of seminars or training programs, including Shaolin classes, in China. This is to help our Lithuanian friends and colleagues to acquire a better understanding and knowledge about China, the Chinese culture and the Chinese people upon which friendship and practical cooperation can be built.

This project is possible thanks to a multilateral effort: On one hand, the Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China as sponsor; on the other, Henan University of Technology as organizer. Then Chinese embassy in Lithuania and the Lithuanian Wusu Federation also show interest by supporting the four participants.

With master Zhao Changan, six times champion in spear forms 1999-2003

The theme of the event this year is feel the enchanting charm of martial art, share traditional Chinese culture. With this motto in mind, trainings are conducted in forms of lectures, seminars, field visits, and travels with the method of theory combined with practice. The trainings include skills of Chinese boxing, cudgel play, bare-handed forms, skill of spear, sword skill and special training for competition.

The class group is composed by 33 participants from 10 different countries and all kind of backgrounds. Soldiers, policemen, coaches, teachers and athletes in sports community are some of the participant profiles. In this matter, Saule, the youngest of the Lithuanian group expresses: “compared with our classmates who have practiced as professional players for 20 years, we have little to show and much to learn. As the beginners of the class, we try to keep up by showing spirit and discipline”

Paskutinį balandžio šeštadienį sostinė vėl prisijungs prie viso pasaulio Taiči (Taijiquan) praktikuotojų drauge minėdama Pasaulinę Taiči ir Cigung (Qigong) dieną, kuri jau dvidešimtus metus iš eilės švenčiama visame pasaulyje, daugiau nei aštuoniasdešimtyje šalių. Susipažinti su kiniško sveikatingumo sistemų paslaptimis bei subtilybėmis kiekvienas turės galimybę pačioje sostinės širdyje – Vilniaus Rotušės aikštėje.

Šventėje dalyvaus Lietuvos rytų kovos menų klubų atstovai bei specialistai iš Kinijos, kurie pristatys skirtingas kinų bei vietnamiečių sveikatingumo sistemas. Daugiau nei šimtas renginio dalyvių kvies vilniečius bei miesto svečius išbandyti ir specialias sveikatingumo mankštas.

VšĮ „Sveikas miestas“ direktoriaus Manto Paulausko teigimu, prisijungti prie visame pasaulyje minimos Taiči ir Cigung dienos paskatino noras pakviesti tiek vilniečius, tiek miesto svečius daugiau judėti, būti aktyvesniais. „Atšilus orams norisi, kad įvairaus amžiaus žmonės tinkamai išnaudotų žaliuosius miesto plotus, parkus, skverus – ateitų ir mankštintųsi, aktyviai judėtų, o Taiči bei Cigung praktikos tam puikiai tinka,“ – sakė M.Paulauskas.

Lietuvos ušu federacijos prezidento Tomo Lapinsko teigimu, šio renginio tikslas – supažindinti žmones su neatsiejamu kinų bei kitų tradicinių rytų kovos menų aspektu – sveikatinimo praktikomis. „Siekiame populiarinti judesio kultūrą, skatinti įvairaus amžiaus žmones rūpintis savo sveikata, ją stiprinti, užkirsti kelią galimoms ligoms bei negalavimams ir, žinoma, tapti visame pasaulyje minimos Taiči ir Cigung dienos šventės dalimi,“ – teigia T. Lapinskas

Pasak jo, šventės metu taip pat bus galima gauti informacijos apie klubus, kuriuose galima išmokti laiko patikrintų, tradicinių Taiči ir Cigung technikų, pasikalbėti su klubų atstovais.

Pasak Lietuvos Taidzičuan asociacijos prezidento Vitalijaus Veršinino, renginyje galima sudalyvauti be jokio pasiruošimo, šventės dalyviai, turės unikalią galimybę ne tik stebėti praktikuojančiųjų pasirodymus, bet ir prisijungti prie praktikų, kurioms vadovaus patyrę Lietuvos Taidzičuan asociacijos instruktoriai:“ Mielai laukiame ne vien Taiči ir Cigung praktikuotojų, bet ir visų kuriems nesvetima fizinė kultūra, sveikatinimo praktikos bei rytų kovos menai. Laukiami ir tie kuriems iki šiol neteko nieko apie tai girdėti ar iš arčiau susipažinti su šiuo kinų kultūros fenomenu,“ – teigia V. Veršininas.

Balandžio 27 d. Pasaulinės Taiči ir Cigung dienos šventę Rotušės aikštėje organizuoja Lietuvos ušu federacija, VšĮ „Sveikas miestas“ bei Vilniaus universiteto Konfucijaus institutas. Renginio pradžia 11 val.

Kviečiame prisijungti!
