Doan Training
Everyone is welcome
During these sessions, we will learn about the roles of the DR (doan, kokyo, mokugyo), how to strike the bell or drum for the best tone, how to properly chant the sutras, the parts of service, tips about how to deal with mistakes (we all make them), ways to apprentice with sangha members who have been part of the DR, and more.
New and interested sangha members, current experienced DR, and Doshi are all invited to participate. The first hour, participants will be divided into beginner and experienced groups. The second hour, both groups will gather together.
If you are interested in attending, please RSVP to Constance at nazdrovya@sonic.net soon to let her know you are interested so that we can plan and also if you need directions.
See you there!
