Liu Xiaopang practices Tai Chi in Chengdu City, capital of Southwest China’s Sichuan Province. He said he started learning Tai Chi at eight years old, but he accomplished little during his first four years practice in Chenjiagou, home of Chen Style Tai Chi, in Central China’s Henan Province. But in 2000, Liu participated in his first international Tai Chi contest and won the gold medal for "push hands" in the 75-kilogram category. (Photo/CFP)
