Courses Given at Lerab Ling

All courses are only in French

Led by experienced instructors, a variety of courses are given at Lerab Ling throughout the year. Whether you're looking to learn meditation for the first time, deepen your meditation practice, learn more about Buddhism, or better support a loved one going through difficult times, you will find what you need.

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.

We also offer the opportunity to do a personal retreat of a few days after the course, so you can deepen what you have learned. For more information and availability of accommodation please send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
