Baltimore Zen

We started this group to gather people in the Baltimore area who are interested in learning more about Zen Buddhism. We'll gather to practice sitting meditation, martial arts, and learn more about the various aspects of Zen. If you're interested in learning the basics or furthering your practice, join us!
