About this retreat
This three-day intensive pairs structured sesshin periods with unguided practice time—a middle path between full retreat immersion and drop-in classes. Mornings and evenings follow a sesshin schedule (the source doesn't specify sitting periods, meal format, or whether dokusan is offered), while afternoons are left open for self-directed sitting or rest. The retreat ends with the Sunday Morning Program, which the center has not yet described in detail.
The center has not published the lead teacher, experience requirements, or lodging information. Contact Zen Center of New York City directly for those details.
