Courses Given at Lerab Ling

Led by experienced instructors, a variety of courses are given at Lerab Ling throughout the year.

All courses are given over one whole day, but if you like, you can come a day before and leave a day later and stay in one of our retreat rooms, cabins or studios. You can book your accommodation whilst registering on line for the course of your choice.
