An Invitation to Apply to Present a Workshop at the Annual Conference

It is time once again to ask for Presentation Proposals from those who wish to present a workshop at the 2010 conference to be held at the Oak Ridge Conference in Chaska, MN the weekend of August 20 - 22, 2010.

The theme for the conference is Qi= mc2 | Qigong: Playing With Universal Energy. If you are interested in presenting a workshop please download and complete the application form and MAIL it and all required documents VIA USPS, UPS, or FEDEX to the NQA office at the address given on the form.

We are asking that you mail the Proposals to us this year in order to prevent the possibility of them being lost in the ethers of email.  Please check with the office about a week after you mail the forms to assure they were received.

Presenting a workshop at the NQA conference is not limited to members, if you know of a qualified person in the qigong or tai chi field who might like to submit a proposal, please give them a copy of the proposal form along with these instructions.  Or they may email or call the office to request one.

There are a few differences in the schedule this year.  Workshops will be 2 hours long which will allow more in-between time for attendees to relax and will also allow more time for meetings, etc.  We will have only 2 day-long pre-conference workshops, but will add 3 half-day pre-conference workshops.  We are also including 3 post-conference workshops on Sunday afternoon along with 2 classrooms which will be available in timed segments for presenters to schedule private sessions, treatments, or healing work for attendees.

If you have any questions you may email the office at info@nqa.org or you may call 888-815-1893 between the hours of 9 AM and 3 PM CST Monday through Friday.

Warm Regards,
The Annual Conference Committee
