In the Buddhist tradition, we don’t exactly have belts for levels of attainment—but there is a clear path of ongoing training and deepening insight.

We remain students even as we begin to teach, committed to practice and study as the foundation for guiding others.

Whether you’re just starting out or already teaching, this free online event with David Nichtern and the Dharma Moon teaching team will explore how to grow your skills, deepen your understanding, and clarify your next steps as a meditation teacher.

We’ll also be introducing Dharma Moon’s new comprehensive meditation teacher track—launching October 2025—which now includes advanced modules for those ready to go further and our renowned 100 hr Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training. You’ll learn how this flexible and robust system supports your development at every stage, from learning to teach meditation to becoming a skilled mentor and guide.

Join us for a lively conversation about the path of becoming and continuing to grow as a meditation teacher. There will also be time for discussion and your questions.

All are welcome - we look forward to seeing you there!

STUDENT FEEDBACK ON THE MINDFULNESS MEDITATION TEACHER TRAINING

“I came to the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training program because I'm looking to make a significant career shift. I already had a meditation platform (as a side gig) but this certification has given me the inspiration to move that platform to the center of my life so I can make a living teaching meditation, help others learn the practice, and deepen my own practice and path.”

“This program was incredible. There are many meditation programs out there and I'm so glad I chose this one. To me it felt grounded and rooted in truth and love. I feel like I was gifted with this knowledge and practice and am excited to go spread it out to others.” 

"This training was EVERYTHING! I have been teaching mindfulness meditation for about 5-6 years. My teaching lacked clarity & focus. This program has given me so many gifts. The View. Ground / Path / Fruition. Precision / Gentleness / Letting Go. Practice giving Dharma Talks. An amazing sangha of Dharma Moon teachers & students and the vast but always accessible teachings from David."
