About us
See parts of Poole you have never seen before, as well as getting an introduction to Buddhist thoughts and ideas that you can introduce into your life.
Whether you are a complete newcomer to Buddhism and what to find out what it's all about, or an experienced practitioner wanting to share your practice and meet others, then you are very welcome to join us for this causal meet-up.
We'll usually go on an easy to moderate walk of approx 3-5 miles in the Poole area, in a location with decent transport links.
Walks led by Viryanaga, a Poole local and an ordained Buddhist in the Triratna tradition. Viryanaga has been involved in Buddhism since 2011, and was Ordained in 2016. Having lived and trained at the London Buddhist Centre, he was formally the Chair of the Brixton Buddhist Community, and now works as an international consultant for Buddhist Centres across Europe. He holds a Doctorate in Psychology and Neuroscience from King's College London, and had a former career as a researcher conducting research in psychiatric neuroscience and neurodiversity. Having been brought up in Poole, he returned to his hometown in 2025.
