No previous dharma study or meditation experience is required!
SHAILA CATHERINE has been practicing meditation since 1980, with seven years of accumulated silent retreat experience and teaching since 1996. She studied at the Sharpham College for Buddhist Studies in England, and dedicated several years to studying with masters in India, Nepal and Thailand. She is the founding teacher of Insight Meditation South Bay based in Mountain View. She is the author of Focused and Fearless: A Meditator’s Guide to States of Deep Joy, Calm, and Clarity.
KIM ALLEN trains in qigong and tai chi in the Bay Area and has been certified to teach Level 1 qigong by her original teacher in Seattle. These practices can provide foundational support for meditation by deepening awareness of the body, and for daily-life practice by encouraging relaxation and calmness during movement. Kim has practiced vipassana meditation since 2003 and serves as a meditation mentor. Her practice is inspired by harmony with nature.
