Courses
Signing up for a course will help to give structure to your exploration of Buddhism and meditation. It is a period of time in which you can commit to testing the teachings and learn more each session about how to take your practice into depth. You’ll meet with the same people each week, giving you the chance to discuss your experience as you attempt to apply the teachings in your lives. We also offer yoga courses to give your yoga practice a boost.
