Our group practice is grounded in a shared understanding of Zen that includes dojo ritual. For this reason, we ask newcomers to attend a free orientation session before meditating with us for the first time.

The orientations include a brief introduction Zen meditation and group ritual, and assistance with sitting posture if needed. All orientations are run by volunteers, and take place for one hour before a group meditation meeting.

Orientations take place at CERES, Brunswick East on:

• 2nd Saturday of each month, 9am
• 3rd Tuesday of each month, 5:30pm

We currently require group participants to wear masks inside our CERES dojo, to better include those in our community who may be more vulnerable to Covid.

Please contact mzgpractice@gmail.com to book in for orientation – it’s helpful for us to know at least two dates that will suit you.
