World Tai Chi and Qigong Day

For our new members I have included information on World Tai Chi and Qigong Day. World Tai Chi and Qigong Day is the brain-child of Bill Douglas and was first celebrated on April 10, 1999, following the United Nations World Health Day. It is now celebrated each year on the last Saturday in April.
At Tai Chi Association’s Official Park Session at peace Park, several Tai Chi

schools in and around Adelaide came together to enjoy this special day. World Tai Chi and Qigong Day (WTCQD) is recognized as a Universal Day by the United Nations. At 10.00 am, beginning in New Zealand, practitioners around the world will be out in the parks and on the beaches, enjoying the friendship of other Tai Chi players and promoting the health benefits Tai Chi offers. If you are interested in finding out more, simply put WTCQD into search on the internet and the website will come up.
This year WTCQD falls on Anzac Day. We thought very carefully whether we should run on this sacred day. However we consider our message of peace and love around the world was appropriate and our thoughts and prayers are to honour those many brave soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and democracy.
Our celebration for WTCQD this year will be very special and we hope, as our thoughts travel around the globe, we will be One World, One Breath.
Please come along and join us, we hope the weather will be kind and the sun will shine.
Where: Mitcham Reserve, Old Belair Road.
When: Saturday, 25th April
Time: 10.00 am
