Events & Retreats

Sitting together for longer periods has always been part of the zen tradition. We offer opportunities for this form of practising at both residential and non-residential retreats. They both create containers for immersing ourselves in practice to encourage and support sitting with ourselves and each other in a quiet reflective place, whether urban or rural. We have been offering retreats in the UK since 2010.
