Practicing with the performers after the show

Lanzhou University Undergrad Campus

Yesterday afternoon we were invited to watch a Kung Fu performance by the Lanzhou University High Level Martial Arts Team. Many students performed and after having practiced a little Kung Fu and Tai Chi ourselves, we were all very impressed by the performance. The performance was on Lanzhou University's Undergrad Campus, around a 45 minute drive from the city.
