It's better to bookmark this page than to bookmark the Zoom link itself. Links may change and there is no way to notify every possible participant. We assume that you are entering virtual practice through this page so that you are up to date with schedule changes and other developing information. Several of the links throughout our website will connect you to our continually evolving companion-site, Sanshin Source, an online multimedia library of resources, context, and in-depth information related to our style of practice. Anyone is welcome to peruse and study our resources as our collection continues to grow.
