Kadampa Meditation Centre Wales

Class prices have increased yet quality hasn't. I am extremely disappointed to hear that it now costs £20 a month yet previously it was a pound a lesson. Isn't it against buddhism to discriminate against the poor? Buddhism is meant to be accessible to all, not only available to those who can afford it. I would strongly avoid this money making organisation and take your custom elsewhere.

I've been attending the Dharmavajra Centre for around 9 months now. My experience has been extremely positive, and has changed my life in a massive way (for the better). In response to some of the earlier reviews above about the centre being money-grabbing"

I have been attending Meditation classes at the centre for many years and from the first class the benefit has been wonderfully positive. The prices for the courses are very reasonable and the food and refreshments exceptional. The price doesn't seem to cover the overheads yet make a profit. I cannot understand the negative reviews as this centre and it's volunteers is perfect for helping you find contentment and happiness throughmeditation.

Regular attendance at classes at KMC Wales has helped me develop inner peace and to face life's day-to-day problems with a more stable and positive mind. The teachings and meditations are delivered with clarity, warmth and gentle humour. Everyone is welcome here. I can highly recommend giving it a try!

I LOVE THIS CENTRE❤I have lived here for over a year. It's not a perfect place ( where is?) as life living in a community can be very challenging but it's a perfect training ground for learning to develop a happier and peaceful mind.In my opinion the resident teacher, Mike Garside is a perfect example. His quiet, humble, relaxed and unassuming manner gives space for his students to be themselves and to discover their inner strengths. We simply love Mike. I have never met another person with such redeeming qualities and I am so fortunate to be living in the same place and receiving his teachers and blessings.In just a short time my life has changed immeasurably for the better and I rejoice in this EVERY day and count my blessings.I thank him for his kindness and pure example.Feel free to come along to the centre and experience this for yourself. You are always welcome.❤

I recently visited for the first time and had a really lovely, heart warming time. A beautiful building, friendly community and experienced resident meditation Centre. A peaceful and inspirational sanctuary!

A warm and welcoming Buddhist teaching community. Their meditation classes and courses are inspirational, easy to apply to our busy, time constrained life, and help to solve so many of our human problems that we all experience.

I have been coming to this Centre for many years and have benefitted greatly. I appreciate how the Centre has continued providing teachings and day courses through on-line facilities - making the teachings available to everyone. Whether people are Buddhist or not, the Centre is very relevant for everyone.

A few months ago the Dharmavajra Kadampa Buddhist centre accepted my request to join their Foundation program on Sundays. The quality of the teaching was excellent, I was always made feel very welcome and I have found the members to be very supportive and friendly. Although this particular program was not the tradition I was looking for, our teacher has completely supported my decision to leave and has made it clear that I would always be welcome to attend other day and week ends courses should I wish to come back. My 19 year old son has also attended a meditation course at the centre , since then he practices meditation regularly , it is both our wishes to come back to the centre to join others in meditation.
