1. Seminars level

First Kouksundo BonWon seminar outside of Korea took place in 2011. Since that time, 5 seminars were held. One of the most important purposes of the seminars is to find out and educate persons who will be a good leader in their region for Kouksundo practitioners. So, practice and theory level in the seminars are quite high and they correspond to the program for would-be teachers. Practice and information given through the seminars are especially important for the people, who would like to become a Kouksundo Master in the future and, of course, ordinary practitioners who just love to practice for their own physical health and emotional happiness, spiritual growth.

2. Right priorities for Kouksundo practitioners

Kouksundo is a practice of high spirituality level. So, correct order of priorities is very important for all Kouksundo practitioners:

• Information (theory knowledge of Kouksundo). Theory is like landmarks for our steady practice and correct way.

Moral attitude is the most important thing, and such order of priorities is especially important for Kouksundo leaders and Masters. It's important to follow it in our own practice and in teaching other people.
