Tai Chi & Qigong Festival Registration
Sorry - you missed it. You can come to the Festival - but you will have to register on-site. Bring a check or cash. Thanks!
Mt. Lake Park is at 46 Bowen Rd, a spectacular facilities in Warwick, New York, just south of the home of the original Chang San Feng Festival (aka "Tai Ch Farm"). It has apartments and cabins. Go to the Venue page for more information about it.
Pricing is a bit complex, so it is best to look at the registration online. But in general Early Bird registration is over, so a three day ticket is $225, a two-day ticket is $185. You can get a discount by contacting one of the sponsors because they have $50 discount promocodes they can give out. We also encourage you to sign up for their intensives on Thursday.
The tickets include all the workshops; you don’t need to register for them individually. The only workshops you register for individually are the Intensives, which are held on Thursday – the day before the actual Festival starts. Those Intensives are run individually by the leaders. Accommodations and Meals are extra, and you must register online to get them.
To register online for either the in-person or on-line festival, you will need to create an account if you don't already have one. You can create an account here. You must register online for on-site lodging because there are only a limited number of beds on-site, so we need to be able to remove each bed individually as they get reserved (which we can't do with paper forms). As of June 20, 2025 all the onsite beds are taken. There are a few available for just 1 night, and if someone cancels their room would be available so it wouldn't hurt to ask if you need accommodations. But you can always stay at one of the local hotels [click here to see them].
Meals are scrumptious, and provided by Eddie's Roadhouse. They were carefully selected by our volunteer team, but if you didn't order them ahead of time, you may not be able to get them on site. People who preregistered get to eat first, and only if there is food left over can people buy meals onsite. Here is what we plan to serve:
- Friday Lunch: Pulled pork tacos, Veggie tacos, Nachos (veggie), Mexican rice, House salad
- Friday Dinner: Eggplant rollatini, Chicken francaise, Arugula salad, Boneless tenders (buffalo),Seasonal veggies
- Saturday Lunch: Mac n cheese, Blt burger sliders, Veggie burger sliders, Cole slaw, Herbed potato, House salad
- Saturday Banquet: Coconut chicken, Seasonal veggies, Sweet potato mashed, Arugula salad, Nutella cheesecake, Tiramisu
- Sunday Lunch: Salmon tacos, Veggie tacos, Mexican rice, Nachos (veggie), House salad
- Sunday Dinner: Arancini (classic) (dozen), Chicken parm entree, Pasta cavatelli & broccoli, Arugula salad
Sorry - but preregistration for the Festival ended on June 20, 2025 at 12:00 noon.
If you sent a check, if we don't receive it before we leave for NY (Wed morning)
you will be asked to pay again at the Festival (and we will void the check that we didn't receive in time).
You can still come if you don't register by June 20 - just register on-site with cash or check when you arrive!
Some people have asked about our cancellation policy. There really isn’t one. We are a 501c3 non-profit organization, and technically all the fees are contributions for which you get the benefits you requested on the order form. Therefore, we can’t do refunds at all. We set our budget so that it just breaks even. We are not in the business of event management, therefore, there is no buffer or cash to return since all the money we receive goes out to cover the costs of the festival, and those costs don’t change if you can’t make it. You will get a letter at the end of the year thanking you for your donation to charity for the IRS so that you can deduct it on your taxes.
We do, if necessary, extend a credit into the following year if you have to cancel unexpectedly for some reason. If it would cause you a hardship, and IF there is enough surplus after all the festival expenses have been paid, we can try to provide a refund if at all possible. Please let us know if you are in that situation. Otherwise, if you need to cancel you will get an email telling you that you have X dollars in credit the following year. The following year you email us that information, and we will arrange for you to get the tickets and/or accommodations using the credit.
We encourage people who are unsure if they can make it to register and pay as a walk-in to avoid the problem.
