The Sennin Foundation Center for Japanese Cultural Arts was formed in 1981. Since then, we’ve been teaching Japanese yoga and meditation, healing arts, martial arts, and fine arts. Japanese yoga and martial arts classes for children, age five and above, are also available.
We’re at 1053 San Pablo Ave. in Albany, California, between El Cerrito and Berkeley. We’re accessible by BART and bus. Visits are by appointment, and you can set up an appointment to visit and ask questions, pick up free literature, and/or register for classes by calling 510-526-7518 (PM).
Beginning classes in Japanese yoga and meditation take place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings. Our class in Japanese healing arts takes place on Monday nights. Classes in martial arts are also on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Saturday mornings. Classes in Integrated Shodo & Meditation, which focus on brush writing and ink painting, are taught in private lessons. And our classes in Japanese yoga and martial arts for children are available Monday through Thursday in the evening.
All classes are semi-private, meaning we do not teach large groups to avoid watering down the quality of instruction. Private lessons are also available.
Prices are reasonable. Discounts are offered for paying more than one month at a time.
All the arts that we teach emphasize unification of mind and body in action. Participating in them develops willpower, concentration, calmness, and other important character traits. You can read more about these disciplines at www.senninfoundation.com. While there, check out the books for sale. Most of these publications can be purchased at the Sennin Foundation Center, and they represent another way to learn about our classes.
The best way, however, to understand what we offer is to call us at 510-526-7518 in the evening. If you get the answering machine, it probably means we’re in the middle of a class. Just leave a message, and we’ll call you back as soon as the class is over. We prefer telephone communication to e-mail, because telephone calls allow us to more effectively explain our programs and their price structure.
