Drop-In Workshops

Come take a break from the world’s chaos.

The Shambhala Meditation Center in downtown Philadelphia is open whenever you need it.

New to meditation? These sessions are perfect for learning the basics in a welcoming, no-pressure environment.

Some evenings we’ll focus on simple breathing techniques. Other times we might explore walking meditation or contemplative arts like Zen calligraphy.

They’re also great for seasoned practitioners looking for a sense of community.

The beauty of dropping in is discovering what you need in this moment, surrounded by others on their own journey of rediscovery.

1-Day Workshops

When you’re ready to go deeper, my full-day workshops allow for more self-exploration. 

These focused experiences includes guided sitting meditations, creative exercises, and group discussions.

You’ll discover practical ways to weave mindfulness throughout your day. Whether you’re waiting for coffee to brew, stuck in traffic, or navigating difficult conversations, you’ll know how to stay present.

Multi-Day Retreats

Retreats offer the rare gift of slowing down enough to meet yourself completely.

Days unfold with sitting meditation, walking practice, contemplative arts. And evening discussions are filled with both humor and wisdom.

You’ll be met with compassion through the ups and downs of an extended experience.

After the initial enthusiasm wears off, many students experience irritation and resistance. And this is normal!

We’ll support you through the challenges of the irritation phase. And we’ll guide you to the final integration.
