The number isn’t large but the enrollment of a dozen Chinese students for the first post-graduate degree on yoga offered at the China-India Yoga College (CIYC) in the southern Chinese city of Kunming is a sign of “widespread attention” the ancient Indian practice is getting in China, a state media report said Monday.
盡管人數(shù)不多，但中國南方城市昆明的中印瑜伽學(xué)院(CIYC)首批12名碩士研究生入學(xué)一事表明，這種古老的印度健身方法“備受矚目”。
The 12 students enrolled late last year and when they graduate after three years – the last one in India learning among other things, Sanskrit – they will be the first students holding post-graduate degrees on yoga in China.
這12名學(xué)生于去年年底入學(xué)，三年之后畢業(yè)，最后一年的學(xué)業(yè)將在印度完成，學(xué)習(xí)的課程包括梵語，屆時(shí)他們將成為中國首批擁有瑜伽專業(yè)碩士學(xué)位的畢業(yè)生。
The CIYC was opened at the Yunnan Minzu University in Kunming in 2015 in collaboration with the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR) after the visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to China that year.
2015年印度總理納倫德拉·莫迪訪華后，印度文化關(guān)系委員會(huì)和云南民族大學(xué)在昆明共同創(chuàng)辦了中印瑜伽學(xué)院。
In September 2017, 40 undergraduate students enrolled at the college where yoga teachers from India are part of the faculty.
2017年9月，首批40名瑜伽專業(yè)本科生入學(xué)，學(xué)院的教職員工中包括來自印度的瑜伽老師。

Zhang Mengping, who worked at a yoga club in Zhejiang province before enrolling for the course, said yoga helped her find inner peace.
在首批12名碩士研究生中，入學(xué)前曾在浙江一家瑜伽館任職的章夢萍表示，瑜伽讓她找到了久違的內(nèi)心平靜。
She felt good to see the “…links between the ancient Chinese and Indian knowledge systems”.
能在中印兩國古老的知識(shí)體系里，碰撞出新的火花，讓她感覺特別好。
Lang Gongxun, CIYC vice-president, said that there was huge professional demand in China’s yoga industry, and the college was hoping to train comprehensive professionals able to improve the healthy development of this sector.
中印瑜伽學(xué)院副院長郎功勛則表示，中國瑜伽市場對專業(yè)人才的需求很大，學(xué)院想培養(yǎng)的是能帶動(dòng)產(chǎn)業(yè)健康發(fā)展的綜合性人才。
There’s no doubting the popularity of yoga in China.
毋庸置疑，瑜伽在中國很受歡迎。
In fact, the first branch of CIYC was opened in Yunnan province in the city of Lijiang last month.
事實(shí)上，中印瑜伽學(xué)院的第一家分院已于上個(gè)月在云南省麗江市成立。
Government-sponsored research revealed in 2017 that China had 10,800 registered yoga centers.
2017年一項(xiàng)官方調(diào)查顯示，中國共有1.08萬所注冊在案的瑜伽場館。

The China Yoga Industry Development Report (CYIDR) said that old links between “pure” yoga from India and traditional Chinese culture including Tai Chi and traditional Chinese medicine aided the spread of the practice in China.
《中國瑜伽業(yè)發(fā)展報(bào)告》稱，印度“純正”瑜伽與包括太極和中醫(yī)在內(nèi)的中國傳統(tǒng)文化之間的歷史淵源有助于瑜伽在中國的傳播。
China, in fact, had backed India’s move at the UN to make June 21 as International Yoga Day, giving a fillip to hundreds of yoga clubs and organization in China.
事實(shí)上，中國曾在聯(lián)合國支持印度將6月21日設(shè)立為國際瑜伽日，這令中國國內(nèi)數(shù)以百計(jì)的瑜伽俱樂部和組織受益匪淺。
Thousands of Chinese have participated in the yoga day celebrations across the country in the last four international yoga days since 2015.
而在2015年以來的過去4個(gè)國際瑜伽日當(dāng)天，全國各地有數(shù)千名中國人參加了國際瑜伽日的慶?；顒?dòng)。
Besides Indian embassy-backed events, local organi在ations and yoga schools also organize programs to mark the day.
除了印度大使館支持的活動(dòng)之外，中國國內(nèi)組織和瑜伽學(xué)校也組織了國際瑜伽日慶?；顒?dòng)。
