CityZen is a western style Chan/Zen practice and koan center in the Pacific Zen School led by Rachel Mansfield-Howlett Roshi. Our form of Chan includes a mix of traditional and revitalized practices that open the way to discovering the joy and connection that resides underneath this life. We offer beginning instruction as well as programs that support you all along the way. Everyone is welcome – all faiths, genders, ethnicities, or sexual preference.
