(Minghui.org) At the beginning of the New Year, Falun Dafa practitioners were invited to introduce the exercises to grammar and secondary school students in Kamnik. ‘‘Young people need a practice like this in this day and age,’’ said Ziga Repansek, a physical education teacher who participated in the event.
Approximately 150 students and their professors in five classes had the opportunity to learn the four standing exercises of Falun Dafa during their physical education class on Tuesday, January 7, 2020.
They first listened to an explanation of Falun Dafa and then learned the purpose of each exercise before they tried them. Most of the students were attentive and thoughtful but some were focused on other things. However, the deeper they got into the exercises, the calmer they became. In the end, they applauded loudly and expressed their appreciation. Flyers and paper lotuses ran out quickly.
Ziga did each of the five exercises five times during the presentation. He said it was really different each time he did them. ‘‘I can feel the energy’’ he said.
There are more than 800 students at the school, and Ziga said it would be great to show the exercises every year to all the students, especially starting with the first-year students. This would make it easier for them to get into the habit of doing something good for themselves.
The future arrangement is to show these exercises to all of the students and even adding the meditation in the future, on a voluntary basis, during their physical education class.

Editor’s Note: Dear readers, do you know that Falun Dafa, originally from China, is currently practiced by people in over 100 countries? But in China, since Jul. 20, 1999, Falun Gong is defamed, slandered and persecuted due to the Chinese Communist Party’s fear of Falun Gong’s rapidly growing popularity. Jiang Zemin, former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), perceived the spiritual discipline’s growing popularity as a threat to the CCP’s atheistic ideology.
