The workshop will be held after service and after a short update meeting regarding the JSBTC Women’s Federation (WF) which is our national organization.

This workshop is open to EVERYONE (men, women, and families). There is a nominal fee of $5/person and children (12 and under) are free. Come and enjoy the company of the sangha as we learn together!

PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED so we know how many people to expect and since space is limited.

There will also be a Cooking/Food Workshop – Mochi Making (open to everyone) scheduled for Sunday, Feb 23 and on Sunday, Mar 8, there will be a workshop called Getting to the Bottom of It – Pelvic Floor Dysfunction in Women. Again, pre-registration is required.

It is your involvement and participation that will make these successful!
