Zazenkai is a 1-day meditation retreat, starting from 8 AM and ending around 5 PM on a Saturday. We have zazenkais about once a month. Besides meditation, dharma talk, service, and other zen activities, we also offer dokusan (private interview) with our teachers, Jane and/or Peter, which is a great opportunity to ask any questions you might want to discuss in private. If you’d like to have a private interview, please email the request to the teachers directly, including your phone number, at teachers@beginnersmindzencenter.org

We request that attendees make a small donation to defray the expenses. You can pre-register by making a suggested donation at this link. The amounts are $15 for members and $25 for non-members.

All of our events are currently held via Zoom only until further notice. Please check the schedule on the Calendar page.
