Seon Keun Oh will teach in Korea

By: Athene Mantle

It has been a very exciting experience working with Seon Keun Oh (pronounced “Sun Gun Oh”), our newly accredited T’ai Chi Chih teacher from Korea. His amazing proclivity for the T’ai Chi Chih practice combined with his already established flow of the chi (through breathing exercises) made the effectiveness of the T’ai Chi Chih movements extremely apparent. When I gave him suggestions for improving his movements (regarding softness, flow, alignment, correct yinning and yanging, etc.), he was able to report to me the immediate awareness of an increase in the flow of chi. I was overjoyed!

Seon Keun is a wonderful young man with an open mind and an open heart and is especially well suited to bring T’ai Chi Chih Joy Thru Movement to another part of the world. Before he returns to Korea, his influence has already been felt right here in this country. San Francisco Bay Area teachers, as a result of their desire to help Seon Keun achieve his goal, have established a Teacher Training Fund to help him and future candidates with their financial needs. From here to New Jersey, all those who have met him have felt his excitement and enthusiasm for the T’ai Chi Chih practice and its benefits. His simple humility and his devotion to helping his fellow man have sparked our own love and compassion. His vision for the healing and peace that this practice can bring to his country renews and deepens my own dedication to spreading T’ai Chi Chih Joy Thru Movement to anywhere they will listen. It has truly been an honor and a privilege to work with Seon Keun and for this opportunity I will be forever grateful.
