World Tai Chi & Qigong Day (Free)

Free event in Annapolis, hosted by Jing Ying Institute of Kung Fu & Tai Chi. All welcome regardless of age, experience, or physical ability.

At 10am on the last Saturday of April each year, groups gather in every time zone around the world to practice Tai Chi & Qigong in friendship & wellness together. A wave of health and healing circles the earth as 10:00 am reaches each new time zone. April was chosen for World Tai Chi & Qigong Day because it is also the month Earth Day is celebrated.

Jing Ying Institute of Kung Fu & Tai Chi will kick off the celebration with a Chinese Lion Dance performance. Afterwards, there will be demos of Tai Chi & Qigong followed by mini-workshops suitable for all levels of fitness. All are welcome, especially those who are not familiar with Tai Chi or Qigong.

There also will be information about the benefits of Tai Chi & Qigong, coupons for free classes, & other giveaways.

Activities will be on the grassy area by the fountain near P.F. Chang’s at Annapolis Towne Centre.

chi/qigong workshop will be held at Jing Ying Institute in Arnold on April 30. It is free but registration is appreciated. Details are located at
