If this is your first time visiting Stillpoint, please arrive 15 minutes before our scheduled practice.
This brief 15 minute orientation will let you know what to expect in our practice and we can introduce you to some of the fundamentals about sitting posture and technique that will benefit your experience when you sit.
After you have received an initial introduction, you are welcome to join us for zazen as fits your schedule.
We want you to feel comfortable when you visit and we welcome any questions you may have.
You may find it helpful to view our Zendo Etiquette page and FAQ page before your visit.
We sit every Wednesday and Sunday; our Practice Schedule page will provide you with additional details.
Sunday
If you join us on Sunday, we typically have an informal brunch after where we sit with tea or coffee and some snacks. Feel free to bring a dish.
Directions
For directions on how to get to Stillpoint, see our Visit Stillpoint page.
Accessibility
Cushions, mats and kneeling benches are available at the zendo for your use, or you may bring your own (you may also use a chair to sit, if you are more comfortable).
Our Zendo is located on the 2nd floor of the building and is only available via stairway.
Contributions
It is only through the generosity of members, friends, and those who visit and sit with our practice community that Stillpoint is able to offer and maintain our zendo and this quiet, gentle place to practice. While it is customary in practice to offer dana when you visit, we wish to be clear that anyone with a sincere interest in practice may sit with us, regardless of ability to offer financial gifts of support.
