Every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday night you can meditate under the guidance of a regular teacher. On Wednesday evening classes are in English and are given by Wayne Taikan Gregoire.

Usually, we sit for two periods of half an hour with walking meditation in between. After the sitting periods, there is a short service and a dharma talk.

If you are joining for the first time, we’re offering basic zendo instructions before the sit on even weeks. Please sign up with Wayne and arrive at the zen center no later than 19.30. Wayne’s email address is wayne@zenamsterdam.nl.

Suggested donation: €57.50 per month
