The Meditation Centre
Kadampa Meditation Centre Manchester is a centre for meditation and Modern Buddhism located in Chorlton and with branches creating a growing community across Greater Manchester. People from all walks of life can come together to learn about meditation and Buddha’s advice for daily life, or simply unwind and relax.
We are a registered charity and we are open to everyone, whether Buddhist or non Buddhist. All are welcome!
Our main beginners meditation class is held on Thursday evenings with our Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Drolkyi. We also have regular lunchtime, evening and weekend classes held at other times, which you can find more information about here.
