History

Specialties
We are a Zen meditation group in Philadelphia, offering meditation instruction and practice, talks and discussion, in a warm and supportive environment open to all. We meet on Saturday mornings at Studio 34 Yoga in West Philly. We also host retreats in Philly, and participate in others in nearby centers. Our activities consist of traditional Zen practices of meditation and chanting. Each practice teaches us to be fully in the present moment. Through them, we learn to have equanimity in all areas of our lives. Our practice is open to everyone. There is no charge, but there is a suggested donation of $5.
