WHAT/WHEN IS WORLD T'AI CHI & QIGONG DAY?!

On the last Saturday of April each year at 10 am, beginning in the Earth's earliest time zone, a peaceful soothing event will unfold, and change the world forever, as it blooms around the Earth throughout the entire day--time zone by time zone. Gently and effortlessly the world will breathe together in a T'ai Chi & QiGong relay of calm. We have all experienced the soothing calm of witnessing others doing T'ai Chi or QiGong and on World T'ai Chi & QiGong Day the entire planet will have that opportunity.

World T'ai Chi & QiGong Day will be held on the last Saturday in April each year falling at the end of the same month as united nations worldhealing day and earth day, and will entail T'ai Chi & QiGong groups around the world gathering at 10 am (each city's local time) to exhibit T'ai Chi & QiGong to the world in mass gatherings in public parks or the lawns of public buildings, so as to be visible to the community and media.

There are 4 purposes for staging this historic event.

  1. To educate the world to the profound implications T'ai Chi & QiGong can offer our personal,
    social and world health.
  2. To thank Chinese culture for providing this powerful health science to the world.
  3. To improve world relations by joining T'ai Chi & QiGong practitioners around the world on this
    World T'ai Chi & QiGong Day, to promote and celebrate a healthier world.
  4. To provide a mighty example of how the emerging power of the Internet can be used to promote world cooperation and health, since most of the organizing of this event is done via the Internet through our web page www.worldtaichiday.org. T'ai Chi & QiGong is about personal empowerment and the internet is a powerful enabler.

Right now, your first priority is to please start contacting every T'ai Chi or QiGong person, group, school, organization locally, nationally and around the world, to ask them to:
A) support and endorse World T'ai Chi & QiGong Day by officially adding their groups name to our co-sponsor list by emailing us through this Web page (this entails no monetary commitment)
B) show their support by in turn contacting every T'ai Chi or QiGong entity they can to do the same. Then begin using the following kit, to organize your Local World T'ai Chi & QiGong Day Event.

Please contact me at 913-648-2256, wtcqd2000@aol.com for more information.
