Dear Tom,
How have you been lately My school is going to hold a “Tai Chi Fitness Week”. Knowing that you are interested in traditional Chinese fitness activities, I am writing to invite you to join us!
The activity, which will be launched at our school gym from August 5th to 12th, is quite appealing. What’s great is that participants will be divided into mixed groups of Chinese and foreign students. Tai Chi is excellent for physical health. It will be a good chance for you to improve flexibility and strengthen the body. Furthermore, this is such a golden opportunity to experience traditional Chinese culture at first hand that it can’t be missed. It shows the ancient Chinese philosophy of “harmony between man and nature”, which is a core idea in Chinese culture. Last but not least, practicing Tai Chi, which can make you calm down and relax my mind, is a good choice for you.
Hope you can take my invitation into consideration. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
