Other Information
  • Please leave your shoes at the bottom of the stairs.  We have a couple slippers available but please wear warm socks if your feet get cold.
  • Watch your step, as the steps can be slippery even though they have antiskid strips.
  • You can leave bags, coats and jackets in the room on your left-hand side when you come up the stairs.
  • Zabutons, zafus, chairs and a couple of benches are provided. You don’t need to bring anything.
  • Dress in layers, as it is sometimes difficult to find a temperature that is comfortable for everybody.
  • Permit parking only; park in the Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s lot at your own risk if you do not have a Cambridge parking sticker. We have two spots in the driveway available on a first-come, first serve basis. If you arrive first into the driveway, please pull forward to make space for a vehicle behind you. Thanks!
