After studying yoga for 10 years and becoming a new yoga teacher\, this was the next right thing for my spiritual journey. I fell in love with Zen. The grounded\, ordinary\, ‘Chop wood\, carry water’ quality of this practice drew me in.” \nMary Ann became a member of Mountain Cloud and a student of Henry Shukman’s in 2014. She writes\, “I treasure the sangha at Mountain Cloud. Even though I haven’t sat with them in person since Covid\, the online support\, inspiration\, and learning feels like a family. It is an honor and a joy to lead some of these Intro to Zen classes. I look forward to meeting you!” \nBill Bruce\nBill is a senior student who has been an active member of Mountain Cloud for many years. He writes\, “I have been blessed with guidance from Henry Shukman Roshi since 2011\, and more recently\, with Valerie Forstman Roshi.” Bill is a self-described family man with a background in home construction and carpentry.
