POTLUCK
Triple Cranes kitchen and dining hall will be under construction during both of these classes. We will be eating upstairs in the Yoga and Meditation room. Bring potluck food that does not need to use stoves or ovens upon arrival.
Monthly Meditation Retreats
Every month Triple Crane Retreat Center offers multiple formats to help you deepen into your personal Yoga and Meditation practice. Guided by highly experienced teachers, Triple Crane shares a unique method of Yoga & Meditation created to support you in every step of your spiritual practice.
Through out a retreat at a TCRC you will experience Yoga Poses, Walking Meditation and Gong Fa integrated to deepen your Meditation experience. Gong Fa is similar to Tai Chi or Chi Gong but unique to Triple Crane's methods to cultivate deep and profound states of Meditation.
As a non-profit Triple Crane believes in making Yoga and Meditation events accessible to all economic brackets.
While registering for our various Sunday, day-long retreats you will find a "Donate What You Can" option when checking out. Choose what best fits your budget while keeping in mind that Triple Crane runs on generous donations from donors including donations from our Retreat Programs.
We also offer work-trade opportunities for those who cannot donate with money. Due to the features in our booking software, there is no way to register without donating. If you would like to register for an event without donating financially, please email trevor@triplecraneretreat.org
