CLASSES @ One River Zen

A group of people sit in a circle on chairs inside a room with wooden floors. They are listening to a person at the front near a window with sheer curtains. The room has minimalist decor with a shelf holding items like a Buddha statue. Cushions and blankets are scattered around, and natural light fills the space.

Classes at One River Zen offer a doorway into the profound teachings of the Zen Buddhist tradition, presented in a way that speaks to the needs of modern life.

With the guidance of experienced teachers deeply rooted in practice, these classes provide a welcoming space for learning, self-discovery, and spiritual growth. More than just instruction, they are an invitation to connect—with the teachings, with yourself, and with a community of fellow seekers walking the path together.

Whether you're taking your first steps or looking to deepen an established practice, our classes foster lasting connections and offer tools to navigate life with clarity, wisdom, and compassion. Join us to explore the timeless insights of Zen in a supportive and meaningful way.
