THE EVENT ITSELF:
You MUST change
dates on kits to this years date-go to our Home Page to get this years date.
Take some time to just talk to participants about the epic importance
of their attendence here, and how it can change the world forever
by educating the world on the powerful health and creativity tools
T'ai Chi & QiGong offer. By healing ourselves, we heal our world,
and it is very appropriate to celebrate World T'ai Chi Day in
the same week as World Health Day. And the best way to celebrate
is to do, so letŐs do it!!
Since, you have hopefully by now trained many new beginners in
the first 2 or 3 movements, ask the entire group to repeat, "or
loop" those momevments over and over again, so that the entire
group can play T'ai Chi together, while the media takes its film
and photos. Then later the more advanced student can complete
their forms.
Also, if you have different schools and styles, get each school
to form a group among themselves, yet all spread out on the same
lawn area. Get students to spread out about 10 feet from one another,
so as to maximize the "largeness" of the group for the media shots.
REMEMBER TO HAVE FUN!!!!! It's O.k. to laugh, and you will all
look back on this day as one of the most joyful experiences of
your life.
THE TELEVISION MEDIA will want someone to interview during the
exhibition, so your spokesperson will not be doing T'ai Chi with
the group. The print media can wait until you are done. If several
groups are involved, meet and decide if each group will have a
spokesperson, and identify each groups spokesperson to the media
before the event begins.
I am more than willing to answer any questions you may have as
this event draws nearer. DonŐt hesitate to email taichismrt@aol.com.
