Each day in the mountains at Warner Springs I saw an improvement in my internal strength. By allowing myself to learn I can see the difference and improvement of range of motion, stamina, and development of mind and body harmony. Best investment to self ever.
A list of the benefits I've received from this year's weeklong would include much better focus, clearer and calmer mind, increased strength and fluidity to my movements. I feel that after just a week I was at a point mentally and physically that would have taken several months or a year of training to reach.

The meditation practice for me, yielded a greater sense of reaching a point of zero/nothingness. This meant a lot for me since I was able to stop my internal dialogue for much greater lengths of time than ever before. Normally my right eye is much stronger in vision than my left eye. I began seeing and feeling an electrical current around my eyes when I maintained meditation past 10 minutes. By Friday of that week my left eye vision had improved significantly, it is now equal to the right eye. This is astonishing when I think about it even as I am writing this testimonial I look around the room testing my now balanced and excellent eyesight and it seems like a small miracle that this has happened at the age of 37. I am deeply grateful to have the opportunity to experience the deepest healing power of my own body through traditional moo doe. To anyone that has not attended a weeklong and appreciates their training thus far, try it and you may change your life and how you view it, literally.
Sincere thank you to the patience and wisdom of the International Teaching Team,
Thank you Chong Su Nim. |

The place itself was magnificently beautiful and highly energetic. The main reason I go to the Week Long Seminars is to release the negative that builds up during the course of the year and to have the focus of this year's Week Long Seminar be purification was an added bonus. |

This was my first weeklong. I was nervous that the training was going to wear me down really fast, but to my surprise the matched training and equipment allowed me to keep going all week. Also the movement targeted some very need to work on areas in my body. I was also happy to talk and spend time with higher belts.

I feel cleansed, rejuvenated, and refreshed. The association with other Moo Doe practicioners, the activities, the movements - even making food - has been a respite from the negativity that is so prevalent in the world today. I truly feel like this is an extended family, and I have enjoyed every moment I can spend with them.
I will leave this weeklong with a greater understanding of my mind, body, and spirit - and with a sense of peace that I know will stay with me even after I return to daily life. I am truly thankful for the opportunity to learn from the International Teaching Team, and through them, from Chong Su Nim. I can't wait for next year's weeklong! |

Spending several consecutive days among National Instructors, higher belts and other students helped me to see the many different ways that Moo Doe training benefits individuals and creates a community. There's no doubt that I've gained physical benefits. I've realized mental and spiritual benefits as well. I used to have some trouble relaxing into meditation. Now, it seems more natural. |

In my experience at the Oom Yung Doe weeklong, I not only bettered my body and mind, but my soul as well. While attending the 2005 weeklong in Warner Springs, I was given the opportunity to train along side higher belts and with students from all around the United States. One of the many things I noticed was how everyone looked out for each other. The National team always took time out of the day to check on every student and instructor. Instructors who were new to me were always concerned and checking on how I was doing. Students working together in groups supported each other and helped one and other. It slowly but surely became clear to me that at this weeklong we all were not only training our mind and body, but that we all were forming a family. The students of the School of Oom Yung Doe, no matter what state they are from, care for everyone around them. I felt at home with these people I had only met a few days before. By the last day I found myself not wanting to leave such a good environment. I had made a bond with everyone there, and this bond has made me stronger. No matter what I do or how hard Training might seem to me now, it is comforting to know that I have my own blood family and my family from the School of Oom Yung Doe behind me to support me. There isn't any other better feeling in the world.
