Organizing of World Tai Chi and Qigong Day in the Philippines World Tai Chi and Qigong Day (WTCQD) is a global event that is celebrated every last Saturday of April with the goal of promoting the health and healing benefits of Tai Chi and Qigong. Founded by Bill Douglas and Angela Wong Douglas in 1999 in Kansas City, it is now celebrated in over 80 countries. The celebration starts at 10 am in New Zealand and ends at 10 am in Hawaii. This means that every hour, at 10 am, in more than 80 countries, people will be celebrating World Tai Chi and Qigong Day. WTCQD brought together people from diverse backgrounds all over the world--people from different races, religious beliefs, ethnicities, ages, and geo-political and social backgrounds. In the Philippines, the first WTCQD celebration was held in 2005. It was an informal gathering organized by the Blue Dragon Society International. The succeeding celebrations were jointly organized by the Blue Dragon Society International, Chevalier Monks of Christ, and Spring of Harmony Internal Arts Club which is now named Peace Blossoms Internal Arts Society. From 27 attendees in 2005, the attendance in this celebration grew to 300 in 2014 year. Peace Blossoms is now known as the lead organizer of this global event in the Philippines. This event is open to the public and no admission fee is charged. It is Peace Blossoms’ goal to spread not only holistic health and well-being to the entire country but to also spread the essence of peace, joy and kindness. We envision a country where there will be happier, healthier and kinder individuals and who can work together for unity, peace and prosperity in our families, our communities and our country.
