Who We Are

Falun Dafa in Arizona is a community of local volunteers. We teach the Falun Dafa exercises free of charge in parks across the Phoenix area, most often in Scottsdale, and in Tucson. We also help people join the free live webinar, hosted by volunteers of Falun Dafa around the world.

Volunteers and newcomers practicing together

Our volunteers come from all walks of life: teachers, engineers, parents, students, and business owners. No one is paid, and nothing is sold. Everyone is welcome, wherever you live.

Here are four ways to get started:

  1. Learn online. Join the free live webinar and learn all five exercises from home.
  2. Practice in a park. Sign up below and we will email you how to join a group near Phoenix or Tucson.
  3. Read the books. The main books, Zhuan Falun and Falun Gong, are free to read online.
  4. Ask us anything. Write to our volunteer team at [email protected].

What We Care About

Our aim is simple: to make Falun Dafa easy to learn for anyone who wants it, and to keep it free. At its heart are three principles: Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance.

Falun Dafa is more than exercise. Practitioners try to live by its principles each day: to be honest, to be kind, and to stay patient when things are hard. Many say this is what brings them the most calm. Read about the practice and its five exercises.

  1. Always free. No class, book, or practice session ever costs money.
  2. Open to everyone. You don’t need to be fit, flexible, or from any background.
  3. No pressure. Come once or come every week. Learn at your own pace.

Falun Dafa is a spiritual practice, not a medical treatment. If you have a health condition, keep seeing your doctor.

Our Story in Arizona

Volunteers have shared Falun Dafa in Arizona for more than 20 years. It began with a few people practicing together. Today there is regular group practice in parks, and online classes for anyone who can’t come in person.

Along the way, local leaders have taken note. The City of Tempe once proclaimed a Falun Dafa Day.

Today Falun Dafa is practiced freely in more than 100 countries. In China, where it began, it has been persecuted since 1999. Learn more about that history.

“Since I started practicing, the constant tension I felt from work has simply melted away. It isn’t just the exercises; it’s the change in mindset that helps me stay calm in any situation.”
