(HBO) – The elderly’s exercise club of the north-western province of Hoa Binh recently held a ceremony to mark its 20th founding anniversary and an exchange at the province’s Youth and Teenager Cultural Centre.
On
March 1999, the pensioners’ club of Hoa Binh city (now the province’s pensioners’
club) formed an elderly’s exercise club with nearly 100 members. To date, there
have been 250 full members of the provincial pensioner’s club and over 1,000
practitioners, along with collaborators of districts and communes in Hoa Binh
city.
At
the beginning, the club invited instructors from Hanoi to guide complicated martial
arts like Tai Chi Chuan and the exercise with staff, among others. Now, the
members are able to practice by themselves and create new exercises, while
providing guidance for other members and practitioners.
The
managing board of the club has closely worked with districts and communes to
promote the exercise campaign in the localities.

After
nearly 20 years since the establishment of the club, all communes and districts
of Hoa Binh have regular practitioners. For sport events and festivals, the
club proactively participates in mass performances. The managing board and
communes organise competitions annually, offering chances for its members and practitioners
to meet and learn from each other, improving their techniques.
With
its achievements over the years, the club and many individuals and members have
received various certificate of merits and prizes from local authorities./.
