We offer payment plans via Afterpay for US students. Afterpay is available for scholarship students (apply for a scholarship here).
Training takes place over a three-month period. To prepare for weekly classes, students will watch on-demand videos to learn a segment of Buddhist wisdom, a meditation style of the week, and a segment on learning to guide others. Students attend 12 live discussion group classes, and also meet (during live class) in small “pods” to do practice teachings.
All classes happen virtually via Zoom.
