‘Bodhin’ Gary Beard, and ‘Sim Hwa’ Mike Fague are available to help you in your Zen practice. Those new to the practice are encouraged to attend a Newcomer’s orientation prior to attending a weekly meeting. These free orientations are held by prior appointment only, may be either in-person or virtual, and typically last a little over an hour.
In-person orientations are usually offered on Sundays at 4:30pm. Additional days & times may be available for virtual orientations.

Please email us at greenmountainzenhsv@gmail.com so we can arrange an agreeable time to meet with you.

We recommend wearing loose fitting clothing, such as pants or slacks that have a flexible waist. No other preparations are necessary. Orientations are informal and we try to accommodate the interests and experience levels of the attendees.
