About this IMS Online Program

Each Sunday for 8 weeks, a teacher from IMS's current Teacher Training Program is leading a half-day online retreat grounded in classical Buddhist teaching. 

The series moves through the foundational teachings of the dharma (the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, and related themes) offering both continuity across the series and a complete experience within each session.

These retreats are an opportunity to practice alongside emerging teachers in the IMS lineage. Each teacher is identified as a TTP cohort teacher, actively engaged in the IMS Teacher Training Program.
