What we’re about

Portsmouth Zen is a Buddhist Meditation Group teaching Chan (the original Chinese form of Zen)

  • We have a lively discussion of Buddhism and meditation over China tea for about 30-40 minutes and then, after a little chanting, meditate together for two 25 minute sits.
  • We Meet Up on Monday evenings at Flat 33 St Martins House, Clarence Parade. It is opposite Southsea castle and the skatepark, nearly next to The Jolly Sailor. Press 33 for the flat number and CALL, and I'll buzz you in. Take the lift to the sixth floor. I look forward to welcoming you, and there will be no cost. Call me on 07989 430267 if you have any questions. It is from 6.30pm till 8.30pm. All are welcome. It is an open and friendly group.
