Sage Institute’s 200-Hour Meditation Leader Training Program
is a comprehensive online program for experienced meditation practitioners to learn how to effectively and authentically teach others the transformative practice of meditation. Through live Zoom classes, biweekly self-paced modules, one-on-one coaching with experienced teachers, and small peer groups, students gain the skills, confidence, and wisdom to teach others.
Sage Institute offers one of the only meditation teacher training programs backed by a 2500-year old Buddhist lineage, through its lead teacher Sean Tetsudo Murphy, a formal Zen Sensei. Although we introduce our students to the prevailing meditative forms in the West such as Zen and Vipassana, our 200-hour program has developed its own inclusive, secular approach to teaching contemplative practice, suitable for trainees of any tradition.
Join our Live Weekly Meditation Practice Sessions
Every Wednesday, Sensei Sean Tetsudo Murphy and other Sage Institute community members lead 60 minutes of meditation and supportive discussion. All are welcome. This is a hybrid online/in-person event.
Join us at 11am Pacific / 12pm Mountain / 1 pm Central / 2pm Eastern. You’re welcome to attend all or just part. Please mute your microphone when you join to not disturb others. ZOOM CODE: 499-493-449
