There are a number of Vipassana Meditation Centres in Europe: in Germany, England, Belgium, France, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, Sweden and Russia, where courses are held twice a month all year round. In some other European countries, where there are no centres, courses are organized at rented sites several times a year. No matter in which country in the world courses are organized, they all look the same, follow the same rules and are conducted in English and in the native language of the country where the course takes place.
There are three Vipassana centres in England, Dhamma Dipa, Dhamma Sukhakari and Dhamma Padhana (for old student courses). Information on courses held in these centres can be found by using the below links.
