Q: Do I need to have any experience?

Q: How should I dress?

A: No special clothing is required, come as you are.

Q: Is there any physical exercise involved?

Q: Will I be asked to speak in front of a group?

A: No, but you can ask questions after class if you would like.

Q: Do I need to book in advance?

A: No, it is not necessary to book in advance. Each class is self-contained so you can come to whichever class suits your schedule and start whenever you like.

Q: Why do you charge for classes?

A: Kadampa Meditation Center Washington is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization run entirely by volunteers. Supporter donations and fees are used to rent or maintain facilities for these classes, and any surplus is donated to the International Temples Project. We make every effort to keep fees low and, for most classes and events, reduced rates are available to senior citizens and full-time students. If you would like to attend an event but are unable to afford the fee, please contact the Administrative Director at least one week in advance.

Q: Do I need to wait for the next series of classes to begin?

A: No, please feel free to drop in whenever you like. Attending the entire series of classes is highly beneficial, as each class builds on the next. However, each class is taught in such a way that you can derive value from attending even just once.
