The adjudicator announced the successful challenge on-site and presented a certificate, saying, "This is the collective tai chi performance with the most diverse nationalities I have ever witnessed. It epitomizes true international cultural exchange."

After the record was confirmed, all participants wrote "World Peace" in their native languages and held the notes high in their hands. The entire group then chanted in unison, "One World, One Tai Chi" and "Happy Birthday, China!"

Tai chi combines deep breathing, relaxation, and usually slow, gentle movements. Originally developed as a martial art in 13th-century China, it is now practiced worldwide.
