I love Shana. I've been coming to her for 5.5 years, through pregnancies, tmj troubles, tendinitis pain, and all 3 of my babies have now seen her!

I really enjoyed the new vibe of the place both physically and philosophically. My son did too. Was part of CIWZC years ago and like the intimate and compassionate energy. Amidst great wisdom awakeners! Thank you.

There was no need to explore the options for Buddhist study further after we visited Clouds in Water Zen Center this spring. We felt comfortable and at peace immediately after we walked in. The facility itself is spacious and well-designed, especially the Zendo (gathering area) for Sunday meditation and service. The staff and clergy are all welcoming, gentle souls. There are so many classes and workshops designed to help develop your individual practice and to reach out to others with good work in the community that it's a tough choice on what to do first. This is THE spiritual place in the Twin Cities for those who are serious about transforming their lives through Zen.
