We have four short, online, certificated modules beginning in October. Together these modules comprise our ‘Being Present’ Level 1 mindfulness course.
You may join us for only the first module – ‘Start Where You Are’ – which is a four session introduction to mindfulness and you will learn about mindfulness and develop your personal, regular and effective mindfulness practice. The module is taught in English by Dr. David McMurtry, who lives in Zagreb and Helena Cuculić. The materials are available in English or Croatian.
After that, you may choose to continue and study modules 2 to 4, and complete the whole course. ‘Being Present’ is the first step on our pathway to being a qualified mindfulness teacher.
There is a no-cost online introductory Zoom session on Thursday 22.10.2026 from 18:30-19:30. To register for this session please complete the INTRODUCTORY SESSION REGISTRATION FORM.
