Canada Comes to Korea!

From September 26th to October 7th, 25 members from Dahn Yoga Centres in Canada will visit Korea on a meditation tour. The tour will include visits to special places related to Dahn Yoga, Brain Education, and Korean history and culture and training with Masters in Dahn Mu Do (Energy Martial Arts) and Pyoong Ryu Do (Yullyo).

After arriving in Seoul, the Canadians will move to Chun Hwa won, the first mediation centre founded by Ilchi Lee, and Mt. Moak, the location of Ilchi Lee's enlightenment. They will visit a traditional Korean folk village and then fly to Je-ju island, designated by the government as an "Island of World Peace".

Back on the mainland, the Canadians will tour the University of Brain Education and Kookhakwon (the Insitute of Traditional Korean Studies). They will help to celebrate the opening of an International Peace Park here at Kookhakwon on October 3rd, "National Foundation Day", which marks the foundation of Korea by Dangun in 2333 B.C. and will take part in the Earth Human Festival, a celebration of humanity and the earth.

After this, Meditation Tour participants will move on to the North-eastern part of Korea and visit the reunification tower. On October 5th, they will do a demonstration and participate in the 2nd Il Chi Ki-Gong festival. The tour ends with two days in Seoul, visiting a traditional market, a Dahn Centre, and the royal palaces.

I am fortunate to be able to join the Canadian group for part of the tour so stay tuned for updates on their travels and experiences! And to all the Canadian members who are coming, Welcome to Korea and see you soon!
