Learn to Meditate is our signature weekend course for those who want to start or strengthen their personal meditation practice and want to do it with professional teachers. We will teach you how to build a practice and navigate your challenges in a very supportive, intimate and nurturing environment. 

Our course attracts those who are not looking for a standard beginners meditation course. We cover many rich topics and make the learning very personal and community focused. We thoughtfully curate our content and create beautiful experiences to help you get into meditation without being tied to a traditional classroom model. We believe that learning is must be embodied and experienced as opposed to just theory based.
