Teachers and students learning Falun Gong exercises

Dra. Hj. Retno Winaryanti Kusumaningsih, the principal of the school, and teachers warmly welcomed the practitioners who volunteered to visit the school. Three hundred teachers and students learned the exercises.

The exercise instruction started at 7 am. Some students and teachers said afterward that they felt energised by the meditative exercises.

Aniisa Critra, a student, said she felt refreshed after exercises. Another student, Andi Gusmanto, said, “This exercise is different. It requires me to focus.” Lola Marlon, an English teacher said: “I felt that my body became lighter. The pain in my back was gone after the exercises.” Dyah Retno, a P.E. teacher, had a similar feeling. “The pain in my knees went away. I will ask my parents to join me in learning the practice,” she said.

Practitioners invited teachers and students to join the local exercise site in the future.
