IWUF Online Wushu Classroom Will Start on May 15th; 1st Week’s Schedule of Taiji Live Courses for You

 

During the global fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, and in response to the call of wushu enthusiasts, the International Wushu Federation is going to launch an Online Wushu Classroom Project on May 15, 2020, free of charge to all global wushu practitioners and the general public.

 

We believe our online teaching courses will inspire all wushu athletes, coaches, and wushu enthusiasts from around the world, and will help guide everyone to strengthen their physical fitness. Wushu has long been known to greatly improve people’s health and well-being, and now especially in this difficult time we hope these courses will bring a boost of physical and mental health to wushu enthusiasts around the world.
