Our Classes & Videos

​

AWAM teaches principles and and practices of Tibetan Buddhism as well as some other classical topics, to help improve your practice and life, benefiting others as well. To learn more, go to About Us. ​​​Students take our courses for a variety of reasons.

Our students have been in the United States, Mexico, Canada, South America, Europe, Africa, Australia, and Asia. ​We use texts and teachings primarily from the Nyingma lineage of Tibetan Buddhism, as well as scholarly and scientific sources. We are based in Tucson, Arizona, but our courses of study and practice are also available globally via Zoom or YouTube. Online classes may be started and taken at any time at your own pace. All are free. Please email us at EmailAwamTBI@gmail.com with questions you may have.

Our online and in-person classes include texts, the videos, practices, and an opportunity to ask questions at EmailAwamTBI@gmail.com. All classes and videos are free.
