The China Cultural Centre in Malta has selected three martial art groups to provide the public with three informative lessons, free of charge using Zoom. The Malta Martial Arts Association, Malta School of Wushu and Malta Yang Family Taichi Quan will teach participants a few basic movements of the different martial arts they specialize in. People who attend these online lessons will have a better understanding of which martial art they enjoy the most and if they wish to pursue it further they can sign up for more classes with the respective martial art group.

The Malta Martial Arts Association will hold the first online lesson on Friday, the 9 of October, at 6.30pm. They will shed light on Taiji, Spirit Combat and Active Ageing Taiji to participants. The highly skilled Adrian Axisa believes in "finding yourself through Taiji".

On Saturday the 10th of October at 10:30am, the Malta School of Wushu will hold an online class on Li Pai Taijiquan, an explosive form of taiji; Qixing Tanglangquan Kung Fu, a very direct and traditional style of kung fu that is often used in old kung fu movies, and lastly Qigong, a system of coordinated movements and breathing techniques.

The final training course will be provided by Malta Yang Family Taichi Quan on Monday, the 12th of October at 6.30pm. Their syllabus includes theory on Taiji techniques, weapon and hand forms. They also offer Active Ageing Taiji with numerous health benefits.
