All Northern California Shambhala meditation centers offer free meditation instruction, classes, a comprehensive curriculum in Buddhist studies, and Shambhala Training - a progressive series of weekend secular workshops that help students establish a personal meditation practice in order to engage more fully and compassionately in the world. Check with your local center for its schedule of events. Northern California Shambhala welcomes people of any spiritual tradition or none at all who would like to learn more about the everyday benefits of meditation.
