Qi Gong & Tai Chi Studios in the US industry analysis

The revenue performance of qi gong and tai chi studios over the last five years has been influenced by a boost in per capita disposable income and total recreation expenditure. This influence has led to growth in industry revenue at an estimated CAGR of 2.4% through the end of 2024. However, the current year's revenue will drop at an expected 0.9% in 2024, at which point revenue will be an estimated $391.8 million.

Trends and Insights

  • Qi gong and tai chi studios have seen steady growth in revenue over the past five years due to a boost in disposable income and recreation expenditure. Despite a slight drop in revenue in 2024, the industry remains profitable with relatively stable margins.
