Two Minute Tai Chi For Free

Improve your health, while you improve your planet!

SDG Tai Chi is a unique adaptation of traditional Tai Chi form, designed to help individuals engage with the SDGs in a meaningful and embodied way.

While the movements remain rooted in classical Tai Chi, each posture has been renamed to represent one of the 17 goals, transforming the practice into both a physical and cognitive experience. 

The entire form takes just two minutes to complete, yet it powerfully aligns practitioners with some of the world’s most urgent priorities.


By learning the form, participants naturally memorize each goal and its number — reinforcing awareness through mindful movement. 

The intention of SDG Tai Chi is to reach beyond the growing divide and foster a shared sense of purpose. This practice invites people to synchronize their daily efforts toward a more sustainable, and compassionate world.

We aim to encourage daily engagement with the SDGs while supporting personal well-being — physically, mentally, and globally.
