The beautiful and pure dance performance by Falun Gong practitioners won high praise from the sponsor. It was the first time that Falun Gong practitioners participated in the festival.

Before their dance, Falun Gong practitioners told the audience that they all practised Falun Gong, a cultivation system that improves physical and mental health, and that Falun Gong practitioners follow Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance to improve their hearts and minds. They said their dance was based on their understanding of Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance.

It was Falun Gong that brought us together. It is a great cultivation system." Many people and participants from other groups said they wanted to learn the dance created by the Falun Gong practitioners.
