On Saturday April 28, 2007 at 10am beginning in Earth's earliest time zone, this peaceful event will unfold around the world in successive time zones throughout the day. Gently and effortlessly the world will breathe together in a Tai Chi and Qigong relay of calm.
The founder and innovative Tai Chi teacher Bill Douglas created World Tai Chi and Qigong Day to acknowledge the healing traditions of China and to bring Tai Chi and Qigong practitioners worldwide together to promote and celebrate a healthier world. Research indicates that Tai Chi and Qigong can safely and effectively alleviate stress-related diseases.
This annual event is in its ninth year with over 80 countries participating and thousands of groups of people in mass gatherings in public parks sending a positive wave of energy around the world.
Everyone is welcome to come and join the local gathering outside the Quadra Community Centre at 9:45am in preparation to start at 10am. If it rains we will be inside.
