| Changes
for COVID-19 -
Clothing, shoes and socks |
|
|
|
We generally wear standard black wushu pants and a school
t-shirt in class. If it is very hot |
|
then shorts. If it is chilly, a hooded sweatshirt. If we are
filming for evaluation (usually sent |
|
to China) it is likely we will be wearing the black
semi-formal cotton tops - they look more |
|
like a jacket. For formal performances we will be wearing
silks. |
|
Shoes are a matter of choice for the student: usually the
inexpensive, traditional black |
|
cotton shoes are worn. Most students prefer the white fabric
soles, but the red hard |
|
plastic soles are fine too. Usually, the Tai Chi shoes
are worn with the semi-formal cottons |
|
and may, depending on the class' preferences, be worn with
silks as well. Comfortable and |
|
absorbent ( of shock and perspiration) socks are suggested.
Most students wear white. |
|
Wearing a hat or scarf in class is fine. We do have some
students who wear gloves. |
