If you’re new to the Melbourne Zen Group, please contact us to arrange a free orientation session before you join our sits (meditation meetings).

We meet at our CERES dojo, Brunswick East on –

• Tuesday from 6:30pm to 8:30pm
• Saturday from 10am to 12pm. (except last Saturday of the month)

As part of our ongoing response to Covid, we offer an option to join our CERES sits online, via a laptop in our CERES dojo (online dojo links are available following orientation).

On weekday mornings, we also meet in our online dojo –

• Monday to Friday from 6:25am to 7am
• Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 8:25am to 9am

On the last Saturday of the month, our CERES sits usually extend to 1pm and include a talk or some other group activity. Please see our calendar of events for details.

As a courtesy to other sitters:

• plan to arrive at the CERES dojo approximately 15 minutes before zazen commences (5 minutes for the online dojo).
• wear dark, un-patterned clothing to minimise distraction.

CERES Covid Safe Plan

• Please do not come to the CERES dojo if you are unwell.
• Dojo windows and doors are kept open to improve ventilation (blankets are available in cool weather)
• We run an air purifier in one corner of the room.

Plans may change in response to changing restrictions and infection levels in the wider community.

Please contact us if you have any questions.
