European Summer Camp

Location: Obertschappina, Switzerland.

Date: 15th - 22nd July.

From 15th to 22nd of July, a European summer camp in Switzerland took place in Obertschappina, a small village in the mountain. Soo Bahk Do practionners from 8 different countries joined the session organized by Spoerri SBN to follow Kwan Jang Nim 's teaching. R.Guzman Sa Bom and P.L de Guzman Sa Bom from Mexico have been also invited and led training sessions. E.H Boussalaa Sa Bom and Bruno Schoonejans Sa Bom from Belgium, U.Spörri Sa Bom, Nathalie Spörri Sa Bom and Christian Preiss who became a Sa Bom during the camp from Switzerland also taught.

The day opened with meditation and Moo Pal Dan Gum; as the sun went up beneath the horizon, Guzman SBN gave us detailed explanations about the movements and breathing. During the day morning and afternoon training sessions, we mainly studied to improve chilsong hyungs and ho sin sool. Every evening after dinner, Kwan Jang Nim talked to us about the 5 Moo Do values, the links between each other, and how to apply them in our life.

During free time, the more active and creative were the children: chest tournament, dancing show preparation in corridors, water guns, drawing and soccer. Adults appreciated chatting outside in the moonlight, drinking a fresh beer or eating an ice-cream.

As the sky remained blue all the week long, every training session was given outside, in front of the stately peak Piz Beverin. Only the last evening of the last day, as sa boms were training on chilsong Oro under Kwan Jang Nim's direction, a magnificent hail storm broke out like a natural way to close the camp.
