Meditation Classes, Courses, & Retreats

Kadampa Meditation Center California offers a variety of meditation classes, day courses, study programs, and retreats at the Temple near Silverlake as well as many locations around Los Angeles. We also offer beginning meditation classes as well as classes for kids and families. Each class includes a simple breathing meditation, a short teaching, and a concluding meditation as well as time for discussion.
Everyone is welcome to attend classes whatever your level of interest or experience. Following Buddha’s advice, we can relax our mind, dissolve our pain and fear, and become of greater benefit to others.
