World Tai Chi and Qi Gong Day is an annual global event held the last Saturday of April at 10am local time. This year the Wilkes-Barre Tai Chi Community will gather to hold a local program at 10am in Kirby Park, Wilkes-Barre City. The program will include demonstration with instructions. No prior Tai Chi experience is needed. The flowing, gentle exercise of Tai Chi is associated with many health and wellness benefits. The World Tai Chi Day event is held in conjunction with the city’s Cherry Blossom Festival.
