The second Asian Theraplay conference was held in Seoul on 25th to 26th July 2014 in Seoul, South-Korea. Theme of the conference was body and theraplay. I was invited in the spring to present there and did not think twice about accepting the invitation. In the end not even a fractured wrist or twisted ankle were able to keep me from going.
In the conference there were attendees from Japan, USA, Hong Kong and Finland in addition to South-Koreans. The organizers hospitality was evident for example in banners in different languages.
Day one |
Theraplay Insitute staff had sent several video messages to the conference and Sandra Lindaman had a presentation via video: Theraplay Groups in Therapeutic Preschool Classrooms
Koreankielisten esitysten seuraaminen sujui mukavasti tulkkauksen ansiosta.
Presentations were mainly in Korean but there was translation so I was able to follow everything.
Todelliseen theraplay henkeen saimme eväitä sekä herkulliset lounaat molempina konferenssi päivinä.
In true Theraplay spirit we got snacks and delicious lunch on both days.
En voi tarpeeksi kiittää järjestäjiä vieraan varaisuudesta. Sunnuntaina he jaksoivat vielä viedä minua katsomaan nähtävyyksiä ja syömään ehkä herkullisimman lounaan ikinä!
I can not thank the organizers enough for their hospitality. After the conference they took a whole day to show me sights and took me to probably the most delicious lunch ( and the biggest) I have ever had!
On mukava tietää, että lokakuussa tapaan osan heistä täällä Suomessa, sillä Suomen Theraplay yhdistys järjestää Pohjoismainen Theraplay konferenssin1
It is once to know that I will be meeting some of them in October in Nordic Theraplay Conference!
Kiitos! Thank You! 감사합니다 !
