The National Qigong Association (NQA) will host its annual conference with the theme “Harmony in Motion” from September 24 through 26 in Richmond, beginning with an opening reception at Maymont Gardens, featuring tranquil tea, flowing ink calligraphy and live music.

It will bring together practitioners, teachers and enthusiasts for a transformative experience of movement, energy and connection, exploring the dance of yin and yang; forces that balance, contrast and ultimately unify life’s rhythms. Through 18 dynamic presentations led by returning and fresh voices, attendees will engage in a diverse mix of qigong practices, insights and interactive discussions at the ballrooms of the John Marshall Hotel beginning September 25th.

Participants can immerse themselves in two days of workshops and practice sessions. Highlights include expert-led workshops blending traditional wisdom with new perspectives; interactive practice sessions for all experience levels; flexible attendance options for a single day or the full event; and community connections with opportunities to share, learn and grow together. From cultivating new skills to deepening existing practice, the NQA 2025 annual conference promises an enriching and unforgettable experience rooted in harmony, transformation and community.
