Are these classes/ events for me?

Our drop-in classes and events have a variety of themes from meditation through mantra singing to communication and community building. No booking is necessary, and all on donation.

If you're new to meditation and Buddhism, a beginners' course might suit you best,

but don't let that hold you back, you are very welcome to join us for these sessions, too!

Joining via Zoom?

You can also join our Saturday morning sessions via Zoom, if coming in person is not available to you.
