We invite you to join us for our summer meditation retreats to deepen your Chan practice. All levels of practice are welcome to join. Our experienced meditation teachers will guide and support you through 30-minute sitting meditation periods and stretching exercises. Each retreat will end with an opportunity for Q&A. Please note that the one-day retreats will include a potluck lunch and a mindful work period.

All retreats are held on Sundays. If you typically join us for Sunday morning meditations, please feel free to join the retreat at 9:30am and meditate with everyone until 11am.

Registration Deadline: The last Friday before each retreat at 9:00AM EST

Registration Donation: A donation to support the Tallahassee Chan Center is suggested, or whatever amount you feel you can afford. Nobody will be turned away due to inability to pay. One day retreats are suggested at $35.00, and half-day retreats are $20.00.

Retreat Information: To review retreat etiquette for those in-person, please go here. We will also send preparatory information for home retreat practice to those accepted.

Location: Held In-Person at the Tallahassee Chan Center with Zoom option available
