We welcome people at all stages of meditation practice. Beginners are welcome to our weekly group meditation sessions and to our retreats. We also offer a range of programs from Introduction to Meditation classes to a deeper dive into the dharma in our Community Circles programs.
Our guiding teacher, Jeanne Corrigal, is a graduate of the 2017-2021 IMS Teacher Training Program. We are grateful for our previous guiding teachers who supported our community over the years: the late Joanne Broatch who was our first teacher when we started in 1999, and Adrianne Ross, who stepped in when Joanne retired.
Buddhism teaches that there are three ‘refuges’ that are aspects of the path that we can turn for nourishment and guidance: the Buddha (which means both the historical Buddha and also our own inner capacity for peace), the Dharma (a Pali word, which was a language spoken at the time of the Buddha, which means the teachings) and the Sangha (a Pali word meaning the community). Our sangha is an active group of people who support one another in our journey to living life more fully in the moment.
