Weekly Practice
We practice every Wednesday night from 7:00pm-8:30pm in the Brunner Chapel of the First Unitarian Church of Wilmington, Delaware (click for directions).
Please park in the church's rear parking lot and enter through the back door. Once inside make an immediate right and go upstairs to the second floor Brunner Chapel. Wednesday night practice begins promptly at 7pm so please make every effort to arrive 15-30 minutes early to help with any set up of the mats and chairs. Together we make this sangha and need the help of everyone of us!!!
You are always welcome! In fact, our sangha is invested in creating a welcoming and supportive environment for anyone who is interested in this incredible practice so please join us whenever you're able. To stay informed, please be sure to sign up for our email list on the homepage. Also, check news frequently for info about practice cancellations due to inclement weather.
