I love the Buddhist centre. The people are kind and the meditations are calming. I get good instructions about how to live a calmer, more peaceful life. ✌️

A warm and welcoming community with great facilities. They have a variety of meetings and retreats that are suitable for people new to Buddhism as well as veterans. The sub-35 group on Wednesday's always gives me great insight and has been a great way to meet like-minded people and have awesome meaningful yarns! Whether you are curious about meditation or want to learn more about Buddhism, I highly recommend attending the centre.

I have loved coming to the Wellington Buddhist Centre over the last year and a half. Initially out of curiosity and a general interest in meditation and Buddhism but now as a means of ongoing meditation practice and exploration of Buddhist teachings. The teachers are experienced and dedicated and have found a way to provide sessions/courses that cater for a wide range of people of different ages and interests, whether it’s meditation, the dharma, devotional practice, retreats, therapy or yoga. The centre is growing in size, increasingly diverse and I have found the people are inquisitive and open minded. Everyone will feel relaxed and welcome on their first visit.

Great place - great people. I became interested in Buddhism about 2010, and first went along to the Wellington Buddhist Centre in 2013. I found a friendly welcoming atmosphere and teachers who were skilled at helping me develop a regular meditation practice. I enjoy the teachings at the weekly Tuesday open nights - I find them interesting and relevant, and It's a great opportunity to meditate with other like-minded Wellingtonians. Highly recommended - a great way to learn more about meditation or Buddhism or both.

Great programs for learning meditation from beginners to seasoned pros. I had never done any meditation before going to the Buddhist Centre and I found the workshops covered everything from posture to mental states. They also run a really good Tuesday Open night if you wish to learn more about Buddhism / the Dharma. I have been going along to classes now for 6 months and I have enjoyed every minute.
