Who we are

The Ahimsa House is a center for practices of peace & mindful living. In the heart of West Philaldephia we are center for conscious consumerism. Our pillars are ahimsa (non-violence), dana (generosity), metta (unconditional love), and mindfulness.

Offerings

We offer weekly classes on Yoga, Meditation, Cooking and more. We also offer workshops in Non-Violent Communication, Gardening, Reiki, and Tarot Card Readings. Groups such as Food Not Bombs, Men Against Patriachy and Queer and Trans Tradespeople also have regular & open meetups in the space.

Dana

All events at the Ahimsa house are free. The Ahimsa House runs purely on a dana. Dana is the sanskrit word meaning generosity. The Ahimsa house aims to cultivate the practice of Dana by giving the community tools and resources to find happiness and well-being.
