Magic Pond International Yoga School

FREE Yoga introduction workshop on Saturday 3 Febuary, starting at 14:00 (2 pm) and finishing around 17:00 (5 pm) in which Yoga will be explained as it really was meant to be: Yoga as the Science of Life, to be more precise, the Science of the Control of Life.

Most people know Yoga as being exercise and meditation and somehow know that it has many benefits. What many people don't know, however, is that Yoga only offers all those benefits if it is practiced in a particular way, the traditional way. After the popularization and commercialization of Yoga in the late 1990s this approach has mostly been dropped, leaving the practice of Yoga focusing on the physical aspects only, surrounded by dogma and a mysterious veil, a fancy shell without real content.

Our typically unorthodox approach of an orthodox spiritual practice leads to incredible opening up of consciousness (which is what enlightenment really means!), it leads to reduction of conflict; internal conflicts (between the head and the heart) as well as external conflicts with the environment (i.e. with the people around you). Additionally it leads to the empowerment and emancipation of the individual, and the awakening/manifestation of unexpected qualities and abilities.

How this works, applying control, physically and mentally, through exercise and mind control, will be extensively explained at the workshop in very practical and no-nonsense terms, with lively every day examples of daily life situations. There will be room for questions and eventually, if you like what you hear, you can register for the course that will start on Saturday 3 February and finish on 29 June this year.

Feel free to bring friends and/or family. This workshop is of course free of charge! No need to make reservation. However, please arrive in time before the start of the workshop to be sure to have a spot.

"The Yogin desirous of obtaining perfection (Siddhi) should keep Hatha Yoga very secret. For it is potent when kept secret and ineffective when [injudiciously] reveiled." --Hatha Yoga Pradipika, chapter I sutra 11--
The symbolical meaning behind this text is that Yoga only lives up to its magical promises when the practitioner receives proper initiation. Without this Yoga is a mere physical engagement surrounded by new age music to give it a mysterious feel. What is missing, because of the lack of proper initiation by a themself initiated teacher, is the true awakening of consciousness, the manifestation of deep insight, wisdom, vision and intuition, for it is these characteristics that Yoga is promising; not a fashion fad focused on the physique without further content. That is what the above text means to convey, and it is the sad reality of the majority of Yoga studios.
If you are desirous of true initiation into the oldest science of life called Yoga, look no further, for Magic Pond is the only school led by a truly initiated Yogacharya, the only one in Korea (IYF and YA accredited). Our "potent" results from properly initiating our students are proven by the incredible transformations our students go through, by the control they take of their past, present and future, and by the incredible diminishing of our students' daily life miseries.
In Magic Pond International Yoga School there are no secrets for people of good will who want to learn REAL Yoga. There are no mysteries and no dogmas; everything is explained in very revealing, practical and no-nonsense language leading to immediate realizations that are life-changing. If you don't believe it, see it for yourself:
On Saturday 3 February we have FREE introduction workshops to introduce our life-changing 4.5 month course. If you attend only this workshop you already understand (in a practical way) more about Yoga than most Yoga teachers do. Attendance is free and no-strings attached.

What would you do? Will you pay 1,39 million won for a REAL Yoga course that will forever change your life, or pay 4 million won for a "yoga" course that teaches anatomy and teaching-technique (80% of the curriculum), and if you are lucky, the remaining 20% of philosophy that is presented in dogmatic ways without providing real answers to your life questions? You'd think choosing the first option would be the obvious common sense thing to do; and yet, many choose the latter option.

What you don't learn is the true essence of Yoga, which is one of the world's ancient esoteric sciences of (the control of) life, that lie at the very foundation of humankind's fast evolution in the past few thousand years.

At Magic Pond International Yoga School in Seoul we offer Real Yoga courses, based on the ancient tradition of true initiation into the deep secrets of Yoga, which are in reality the deep secrets of life. You develop deep insights into your sub-conscious functioning, leading you to end your perpetual suffering and misery caused by lack of control over conditioned impulses and tendencies.

We at Magic Pond are the only truly initiated in Korea, allowing us to present you the deep secrets of Yoga in a very practical and no-nonsense way.

On Saturday 17 February 2024 we start a new course that will finish on 29 June 2024. In anticipation of that course we have a FREE orientation workshop on Saturday 3 February. Attending only the workshop will already make you know AND understand what real Yoga is about much more than most certified Yoga teachers. We explain in credible ways the difference between modern and traditional Yoga, with practical and lively examples that help you understand what Yoga can do for you if practiced and studied correctly.

Modern Yoga focuses on physical posture and perfection. However, tradition has it that Yoga leads to empowerment and emancipation of the individual; elements that sadly have gone lost. If adhered to the original ancient framework that real Yoga presents us, it leads to the sub-conscious becoming conscious, giving deep insight in our suffering caused by (primal) fears, emotions and desires, which drive us through our daily lives causing discomfort and instability on an almost permanent basis.
Learn real Yoga at a school that teaches Yoga in the ancient tradition from a teacher who has been deeply initiated into the real secrets of Yoga. While modern Yoga is a good physical workout with which nothing is wrong, real Yoga leads to real change and transformation, already from the very first class you attend. It leads to fast personal growth and development. In only 4.5 months (the duration of our basic course) I see my students going through considerable change. We at Magic Pond are the only truly initiated in Korea, allowing us to present you the deep secrets of Yoga in a very practical and no-nonsense way.

Thousands of years ago Yoga was practiced in mystical schools of magic. Ancient Yogis were the healers, medicine men and women, visionairs (seers), witches and sorcerers of their time. What they had in common was their expanded consciousness, their deep understanding of life in all its aspects through specialized training, based on traditional initiations from teacher to disciple. Magic Pond International Yoga School is one of the few schools, and possibly the only in Korea, where you can be schooled and initiated in the ways of the ancient Yogis. You will receive all the answers to questions you have about yourself, your past AND your future, and life in general, during deep discussions with the only Yogacharya in Korea, Ron Katwijk. Ron is secretary of the International Yoga Federation in Korea and chairman of the Asia Yoga Council IYF.
