World Tai Chi
and Chi Kung Day

World Tai Chi Day with the Golden Rooster school

World Tai Chi and Qigong Day (WTCQD), also spelled World T'ai Chi and Ch'i Kung Day, is an annual event held  each year to promote the related disciplines of Tai Chi Chuan and Qigong in nearly eighty countries since 1999.  We first participated in this event in the year 2000, with a display in Thetford.  Once the Golden Rooster Institute was launched In Coimbra, Portugal, we organised events there every year from 2003, to 20111. 

The annual public event is held at 10.0am local time, on the last Saturday of April, with celebrations in  several hundred cities across the world.

World Tai Chi and Qigong Day's stated goals are to:
  1. Educate the world about emerging medical research revealing health benefits that t'ai chi ch'uan and qigong offer.
  2. Educate about the increasing use of these ancient traditional Chinese medicine modalities in business, healthcare, education, penal and drug rehabilitation.
  3. Provide a global vision of cooperation for health & healing purposes across geopolitical boundaries, and also an appeal to people worldwide to embrace wisdom from all the cultures of the world.
  4. Thank Chinese culture for the gifts of tai chi and qigong to the world.
