Ready for World Tai Chi and Qigong Day?

Each year on the last Saturday in April, ten of thousands of people around the world participate in a wave of tai chi and qigong. As the sun arches across the sky tomorrow, the 25th at 10:00am in every time zone around the world, people will be practicing tai chi and qigong. This “One World, One Breath” Event was founded by Bill Douglas now residing in Overland Park, Kansas.

This Saturday morning I’ll be practicing with my school, Mei Zhong Yang Style Taiji Assoc., U.S.A., on the MARTA Plaza in Downtown Decatur, Georgia. If you’re around, please feel free to stop by. My teacher, Miriam Holland, and I would love to meet any new students as well as experienced tai chi players. We’re not officially linked with the event but look forward to participating, as thousands of others will undoubtedly be doing also - everyone loves a party.

Check out the website for World Tai Chi and Qigong Day here: http://www.worldtaichiday.org/. On their site you’ll find locations around the world where you can participate, and I’m sure any school involved will welcome drop ins. If you’re in Decatur please stop by. If you’re not close to a school you can participate on your own by simply practicing at 10:00 in your own time zone.

Here’s wishing you a happy World Tai Chi and Qigong Day… oh, and thanks Bill.

P.S. I found this picture on the World Tai Chi and Qigong website.
