Teaching Meditation: Steve Pinney Jr at the Seattle Meditation Center

Long before he was a coach, Steve Pinney Jr was a teacher. He has taught and spoken at the Seattle Meditation Center, and still teaches live classes every week.

The Seattle Meditation Center

The Seattle Meditation Center is where a great deal of Steve Pinney Jr’s teaching happened, first as a monk and later as a teacher and speaker.

How a class actually looks

Not a stage and an audience. People sit together on the floor or around a table, the room is quiet, and the teaching happens in conversation as much as in instruction.
