These fortnightly mediation classes are for anyone who would like to reduce stress in their lives. Each class allows participants to learn mediation through guided instructions and an opportunity to ask the facilitator questions about mediation and their practice. These drop in classes also provides group support to encourage meditators to keep up their mediation practice. So as you end the work week, drop in for some time for yourself, and find your peace and clarity through mediation.

About the Facilitators:

Ana Brandao started practising meditation in 2004 under the guidance of Dharma teacher Master Behram Ghista. She then became interested in Vipassana meditation and met her now main meditation teacher, Ariya Baumann (nee Ariya Ñani), in 2008. Ana has attended more than 18 intensive meditation retreats in both the Tibetan and Theravada traditions, and started teaching mindfulness meditation for beginners in 2008. Her background as a scientist makes her classes practical and simple, yet with heart.

Terry Redmond has attended Buddhist and meditation sessions regularly over the past 14 years and somewhere along the way became a Buddhist. He is a retired bookkeeper and likes to marry science with Buddhism. His favourite author is the American Buddhist nun, Pema Chodron, and he has a liking for walking meditation.
