The Potomac Zen Sangha is located in Alexandria within walking distance of the metro.
It is open to the public for meditation and talks by Zen Master Pohwa
Sunim. Each class stands on its own and no prior experience is necessary.
We accept donations, but they aren't necessary. Guidelines are $10 per class, $15 per week, or $50 per month. Suggested student donations are half of these amounts.

- Beginner's Zen Class
In the moment, there are no beginners nor experts. But you should learn to bloom a fresh lotus flower each second. Zen Tea will be served along with meditation discussion.
The class includes two 25 minute sitting sessions separated by a ten minute walking meditation. Arrive early for one-on-one meditation dialog.
Just come as you are.
- Deep Zen Night
After a busy week, turn towards Zen and peaceful nighttime sitting and walking meditation. Mitigate suffering by developing a sages mind. Tiger never eats grass. Zen Warriors capture the eternal truth in every single moment of life and death.
