HEALING OF KOREA
About
Hello and welcome!
I’m SooJin Pray, a Korean artist merging traditional Korean philosophy, dance, and sound therapy into a unique healing experience. My journey began with mastering Korean traditional dance, martial arts, and oriental medicine. Upon expanding my skillset to sound therapy in Korea and the United States, I’ve discovered the power of creating deeply transformative art healing experiences.
So far, I've conducted dance and sound meditation workshops for over 1,000 participants, ranging from corporate settings to personal sessions. Currently leading an art group, I aspire to share the enchanting world of sound and energy therapy with visitors from all around the globe.
Join me in a harmonious exploration of balance and serenity.
“Feel the energy of Korea, wherever you are.”
