Welcome to the Zoom Zendo!

The GRC is currently closed to personal visitors and retreats during the period of COVID-19. While we are setting intentions for a rapid return to wellness across the world, we are in the meantime excited to invite you to the ZOOM ZENDO! Here, at scheduled times listed below, we can meet for Zoom Zazen, Zoom Zen Yoga, Chanting to the Open Heart, and more.

Due to an increasing need for security in Zoom meetings, we do now require participants to register for each offering (you only need to register once for weekly/regular classes). Please email gainesvilleretreat@gmail.com to register for any of the offerings listed below.

These classes and events are freely offered, but if you are able and inspired to make a donation of any amount, it is gratefully accepted here: https://www.paypal.me/GainesvilleRetreat. We are honored by your presence and support.
