The easiest way to familiarize yourself with the Austin Zen Center and our core practice is to start by attending the Beginners’ Class held on Saturdays from 8:00–9:00am. This event is held in the zendo (meditation hall) in the main building at 3014 Washington Square. Register on the website.

Participants will be given meditation instruction (the core practice of Zen Buddhism), a general orientation to the Center, and an opportunity to ask questions about Zen practice at the Austin Zen Center.


All are invited to join the Saturday Morning Program* immediately after the Beginner’s class. While there is no charge for this group, donations are always welcome. As the center is occasionally closed for retreat, check the calendar before coming in.
