Garden City Zenz is based at the Opawa Zendo, a purpose-built facility. There are three regular meditation (zazen) sessions each week.

Tuesday: 7.30-8.45pm (beginners start at 6.45pm and should phone in advance)
Friday: 6.00-7.10am
Sunday: 7.00-9.15pm

We also hold regular half-day and full-day sits (zazenkai), as well as monthly question-and-answer sessions with the Zen teachers and seniors of the Mountains and Rivers Order (MRO).

In January each year one of the MRO teachers leads a set of public talks, workshops and retreats held in the Christchurch area. A further week-long meditation intense (sesshin) led by an MRO senior monastic is offered in the Nelson region in July. Information on these events can be obtained by contacting any of the regional sitting groups
