In the second video in the Park Games series, D J Clark goes to Zizhu Park near Beijing's National Library to find Jiang Liguo, a tai chi master from Chen, the oldest of five schools of this ancient martial art, in his search through the Beijing parks to find a potential future Chinese Olympic sport.

Though more commonly associated with a form of slow meditative movement the sport can be competitive and Jiang believes its promotion to an Olympic event would reap a lot of benefits.
