🌈 Book at meditateinnorthwales.org - £7.50 per class

These classes introduce the art of meditation and offer advice on how to apply Buddha’s teachings to solve our daily problems.

The class is led by Kadam Mike Garside, the Resident Teacher of Kalpabhadra Kadampa Buddhist Centre. Kadam Mike has been studying and practising meditation for over 40 years under the guidance of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso.
