传承太极文化，关爱社区长者——公益慰问演出圆满举行 Tai Chi Team Brings Warmth and Cultural Performance to Senior Center

On the morning of July 18, 2024, the Tai Chi Team of the South Bay Chinese American Association of California USA was invited to perform at the Family Adult Day Health Care Center, bringing a unique and heartwarming experience to local seniors.

The team presented a series of traditional performances, including Tai Chi routines, sword forms, and Kung Fu fan demonstrations. Accompanied by elegant traditional music, the performers showcased the grace and power of Chinese martial arts, earning waves of applause and admiration from the audience. After the performance, team members enthusiastically engaged with the seniors, teaching them basic Kung Fu fan movements in a lively and joyful atmosphere.

Respecting the elderly is a core virtue in Chinese tradition. This event not only enriched the cultural lives of the seniors but also conveyed warmth and care from the broader community. Chairwoman Wei Wang of the association shared that similar public service events will continue to be organized in the future to promote health, happiness, and the beauty of Chinese Tai Chi culture—while contributing to a more harmonious and connected community.

2024年7月18日上午，美国加州南湾华人协会太极队应邀到Family Adult Day Health Care 长者中心慰问，为长者们带來了一场别开生面的和温馨的表演。 

队员们表演了太极拳、太极剑和功夫扇，以精湛的太极拳技艺和优雅流畅的动作，和着传统的优美音乐，展示了中华武术和文化的魅力，博得阵阵喝彩。表演过后，队员们与长者们热情互动，教他们打功夫扇，整个活动充满了欢笑与掌声。 

尊老爱幼是我们中华传统美德。此次活动不仅丰富了老人們的文化生活，让他们感受到來自社区的关爱与溫暖。加州南湾华人协会主席王薇表示，今后会继续组织类似公益活动，为社区成员带来健康与快乐，将中华太极文化传播给更多的人，同时也为社区和谐美好贡献一份力量。
