Join us for a full day of practice in July. In-person attendance is encouraged for the fully vaccinated, but we will also offer the retreat via Zoom. People are welcome to arrive before evening Zazen on Friday and stay through Zazenkai on Sunday morning for a weekend of practice. This will be the final daylong retreat before the September training month, so a good opportunity to deepen your practice beforehand.
For the fully vaccinated who would like to join us in person, please email us to make arrangements: Tahoma@tahomazenmonastery.com
For those unable to commit to the full day drop-in attendance for any of the bolded events in the below schedule is encouraged for the fully vaccinated.
