The Falun Gong exercise demonstration was a popular attraction. As more and more people came to learn the exercises, space at the booth ran out.

Some who came to learn the exercises commented, “The energy here is great!” “They look so calm!” The event organizer filmed the meditation demonstration, wanting to use it to promote the expo in the future.
One man told a practitioner that he had heard about Falun Gong and wanted to try it. He was very happy to finally have the chance to learn Falun Gong. Some people said they feel the energy moving in their bodies while doing the exercises. Many people told practitioners they completely agreed with the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance.
