Heruka Kadampa Meditation Centre

Heruka Centre provides a warm, thoughtful and friendly environment for all visitors. Their weekly meditation classes (which are held throughout London) are well structured, led by experienced practitioners and based on traditional Buddhist theory - all presented in a way that is relevant to modern life. I particularly recommend their full day courses.

Heruka Centre has been offering classes on meditation and Buddhism across London for many years. Courses and seminars are well organized, consistent and very welcoming. The representation of Buddhist teachings is clear, authentic and –most importantly – practical for daily life and problems. The teachers are mostly volunteers and dedicated Buddhist practitioners. They are motivated by helping, not by making money.Heruka Centre offers courses for beginner to intermediate level in many locations of north London for very modest fees. Advanced courses and classes mostly take place in Golders Green. I have attended many of them and can attest to their quality and friendly atmosphere.Similarly, for all I know and have seen the integrity of both Heruka Centre and its underlying tradition (“New Kadampa”) deserves high ratings and respect, in particular for making Buddhist teachings accessible for modern busy people, whether they are Buddhist or not.

Heruka Centre ticks all the boxes. Mediation, peaceful environment, lovely garden, warm kind people, great food and if you want more they do day course and retreats. Highly recommend

Lovely place to drop into if you're in the area, friendly people and a beautiful garden. The meditation classes are very useful to help with the anxiety and stresses of life. Recommended

I have been attending classes and day courses at Heruka KMC for over a year and have found them to be both spiritually beneficial and also beneficial from a daily practical perspective.The community is warm and welcoming and the teachings are both insightful and thoughtful.For anyone looking for practical ways of dealing with day to day problems or anyone looking to broaden their knowledge and understanding of Buddhism, I would recommend the classes here.

Heruka KMC is a wonderful place, warm and welcoming. The meditations and teachings are practical and very helpful for living a peaceful life. I have so much more peace and fulfilment because of attending classes at Heruka KMC.

It was the best thing I ever did...I miss attending the group meditation sessions. The centre in Golders Green is amazing, I also miss sessions they did in Angel! I always felt part of the community and ai felt so much calmer in my thoughts after the sessions.

Heruka meditation centre is such a wonderful place. I love visiting as there is a real sense of peace there, and it allows me the space for calmness and contemplation amongst the chaos of daily life. The teachers and classes are great and I always come away feeling peaceful. It feels like a home away from home.

Heruka is a lovely centre offering a wide variety of evening and day courses to suit all levels of interest from beginner to more advanced. The clear and authentic teachings are presented in a very practical way and the centre is always a very welcoming place to visit.
