The 12th annual World Tai Chi Qigong Day event will be on Saturday, April 30, 2011 at West Hartford Town Hall Green. 50 S Main St, West Hartford, CT. from 10 a.m. to 12 noon.

This year’s theme is “The Healing Power of Tai Chi & Qigong.” The event organizer is Master Guangzhi Xing of Yin Yang Tai Chi Academy in West Hartford.

“We want to teach as many people as possible the simple concept of Tai Chi and Qigong, and provide them the opportunity to understand more about the health and healing benefits associated with them,” Master Xing said. “I am very fortunate to inherit this wonderful healing art from my grandfather in China. I would love to pass it along and share it with our community.”

The West Hartford event, which is free for everyone to participate, is part of a celebration in which tens of thousands of people in hundreds of cities in over 70 nations will come together ... to breathe together ... to provide the world a healing image of our planet and our people.

Beginning at 10 a.m., we will practice and demonstrate a variety of Tai Chi and Qigong forms, including:

• Yang Style Tai Chi
• Chen Style tai Chi
• Sun Style Forms, including Tai Chi for Arthritis
