What to Expect at a Class

Meditation RoomOur meditation classes are suitable for both beginners and experienced meditators. Everyone is welcome.

At the beginning of class, the teacher will guide a gentle breathing and relaxation meditation in which we will develop a beneficial motivation for attending the class.

Then the teacher will give a practical teaching on some aspect of Buddhist meditation and practice. There is usually time for discussion,  questions and answers. The teachers are skilled in helping us to apply Buddha’s advice to our own daily lives, with appropriate analogies, stories, reasoning and humor.

Class PictureThe session ends with a guided meditation, designed to help us take the teaching to heart in such a way that we are confident in beginning to practice it on our own in our daily life.  Both chairs and seating on the floor are available.

Afterwards, for those who wish, there is a chance to talk to the teacher and other students informally while enjoying refreshments.
