Caption: Chengdu, Sichuan, China - Aug 2003. Practitioners of Tai-Chi and its derivities engage in an early morning session of the martial art by the edge of a river and busy highway in downtown Chengdu. A graceful breathing exercise where the body is controlled through deliberate meditated movements, Tai-Chi is an ancient Chinese sport. So many people practise it that many have to resort to nature strips by the sides of highways for space.
