(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners from London participated in the International Yoga Day event held at the Archbishop Lanfranc Academy on June 21, 2015. Many people learned the Falun Gong exercises, and asked practitioners for contact information for the exercise site.

Learning the exercises. Desai (gentleman in gray jacket) felt strong energy.

Bhavin Desai, 40, has practiced yoga for more than ten years. As a big fan of meditation, he joined three Falun Gong workshops at the yoga day event. He told the Minghui correspondent that he felt heat in his palms, and felt strong energy flow through his hands and make his hands vibrate, while meditating.

“I feel very peaceful after the meditation,” Bhavin said, “I will start practicing Falun Gong.”

Another lady (first on left in the photo), who has practiced qigong for many years, also felt a strong energy field when doing the Falun Gong exercises. She and her friends are interested in attending more Falun Gong workshops in the future.

One middle age gentleman talked to the practitioners for a long time. He said he believed that Falun Gong should be respected and welcomed, and couldn't understand the persecution by the Chinese Communist Party.

After signing the petition opposing the persecution, he gave practitioners his contact information. He said he would like to introduce Falun Gong cultivation practice to the leaders of his community, and he invited practitioners to teach the exercises there.

“There will be a similar event in my community a few months later,” he told practitioners, “I will offer you free rooms. Please join us.”
