All Day Sitting with Everyday Zen

This is a single-day sesshin format—a concentrated sitting day rather than a multi-day retreat. You'll practice zazen in the morning, eat a silent meal at midday, listen to a Dharma talk, and meet one-on-one with a teacher during dokusan (a private meeting). The day runs from 9 a.m., though an exact closing time isn't listed; contact the center for the full schedule.

Zoketsu Norman Fischer is the founder of Everyday Zen, a lay-centered Soto Zen lineage. He'll be teaching alongside senior Everyday Zen teachers. The center has not published further details about the day's structure, what to bring, or whether prior sitting experience is expected. Contact San Francisco Zen Center for clarification on any of these points.
