About this event

Join us for a Free Meditation Class and experience the calm that simply your breath can provide! This in-person event is held every Thursday at 8:00 PM (PDT). Please arrive 10 minutes early as we begin promptly at 8! The class takes place at 11512 Santa Monica Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90025.

Our Free Meditation class begins with a talk from our Sifu (Sifu means teacher in Chinese) or one of our senior students. They talk about something related to Meditation, Mindfulness, or Martial Arts. We post the topic of the week on social media.

We then meditate together on our comfortable mats and cushions. Our calmly lit dojo and the gentle sound of our water fountain provides a quiet and relaxing space.

Whether you've never meditated before or you're a life-long practitioner, our Free Meditation Classes are fit for all!

We have standard Zafu meditation cushions filled with buckwheat available for your convenience. We also have a few, more firm seat options available

Yes! We ask that participants keep noise disruptions to a minimum in order to keep a quiet and peaceful environment. However, we understand that sometimes things like sneezes are unavoidable!

School of Martial Arts - West LA

What makes the School of Martial Arts West LA stand out from other fitness and martial arts disciplines is its breadth of philosophy in both physical and mental wellness. Relying on a foundation of Tai Chi, Kung Fu and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, our dojo puts a focus on self defense training, bodily health and meditation so that students stay well-conditioned and mentally at ease. With a curriculum based on ancient Chinese martial arts dating back hundreds of years, our classes offer an academic flavor that you won’t find in other fitness styles such as Crossfit and Krav Maga
