Event description: 

Celebrate World Tai Chi Day by participating in outdoor tai chi and qigong demonstrations and workshops led by local tai chi instructors in the heart of New Haven on the Green.

World Tai Chi and Qigong Day was established in 1999 as a free public event to bring people across racial, economic, religious, and geo-political boundaries together for the purpose of health and healing through tai chi and qigong. It is celebrated in 80 nations at 10AM on the last Saturday of April, beginning in Samoa and ending in Hawaii.

World Tai Chi and Qigong Day in New Haven is presented annually by the Yale-China Association, Aiping Tai Chi Center, and the City of New Haven’s Department of Arts, Culture, and Tourism, with generous support from Yale University departments and the other city of New Haven leaders.

This family-friendly event is free and open to the public.
