Thaypassana Meditation Retreats

Originally founded by Madison, WI-based meditation teachers Cheri Maples and David Haskin, and joined by Steven Spiro and Jan Sheppard, "Thaypassana" mindfulness retreats blend the Thich Nhat Hanh (nicknamed "Thay," meaning "Teacher" in Vietnamese) and Vipassana traditions.  Thanks to David for making up the "Thaypassana" name!  Maureen Brady serves as the Den Mother/Retreat Manager.

Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh ordained Cheri as a dharma teacher and, although she died in 2017 from complications resulting from a bicycle accident, the Thaypassana retreats - and dharma - go on.  We want to share the "best of" from some of our retreats, including dharma talks, Qigong, and Question & Response sessions.
