Following the talk, the class went outside to practice Yang Style Taiji form, led by Wang Ming Bo and Rose, plus Rose also lead the group through some basic foundation exercises to help avoid being double-weighted in their Taiji practice.

The lecture and form session was filmed by ICS TV Station, who are filming Rose over a series of weeks, for a documentary being filmed in cooperation with the BBC.

The aim of the documentary is to introduce China to UK citizens more fully and thus help promote understanding of China and Chinese culture and social life here, especially through the eyes of western residents, including long-term resident Rose’s life here in Shanghai.?
