About us

What if the most alive version of you isn't something to achieve — but something to remember?

The Art of Playing is a workshop built around Pungryudo, Korea's ancient philosophy of Wind and Flow. We explore what it means to live the way a river moves: without striving, without losing momentum, completely present.

The workshop moves through three practices:

— Philosophy: the roots of Pungnyudo and its two core movements, Mosim (the art of deep reception) and Sallim (the natural arising of action)

— Anapana Living: a daily-life meditation where thoughts, emotions, impulses, fear, memories, dialogues, and intertactions with others & nature, all become the practice

— Donghak Sword Dance CBC: a somatic partner practice rooted in Korean shamanic tradition, for experiencing non-separation between ourselves and the rest of the world

All three point toward the same thing: Capacity for Play — the ability to meet life as play. Not as a technique. As a way of being.

The word Pungryu also means “to play”.
