Welcome
We offer daily sittings in person and online via Zoom; ongoing classes and groups; and special classes and events (see Upcoming Events below) throughout the year. These special events include longer sittings, practice periods, classes, community events, and observance of the Soto Zen ceremonial calendar.
If you are new to Zen we offer a free Introduction to Zen class, usually on the third Saturday of the month. See the master calendar for upcoming dates. If joining us via Zoom, please indicate your name. Thank you!
Please note: If your camera is off on Zoom, for security reasons we require you post your name.
