Mid Island Tai Chi Club values open-mindedness, change, compassion, acceptance, patience, respect, volunteerism, inclusiveness, enjoyment, and charity.
Our commitment to initiate, host and organize World Tai Chi & Qigong Day every year in Nanaimo, since 2023, is one example of how we apply these values — a day when we celebrate with all Tai Chi and Qigong practitioners, regardless of differences in styles of practice, that we are connected by, and all part of, the web of life: “One World. One Breath.”
