We offer a Curriculum

Koru Mindfulness is an evidence-based curriculum specifically designed for teaching mindfulness, meditation, and stress management to college students and other young adults. The curriculum consists of three components:

KORU BASIC: An introduction to mindfulness and meditation. Taught as a weekly, 75-minute class over four weeks by a trained and certified Koru Teacher.

KORU 2.0: An “advanced” class for students who have completed Koru Basic and are eager for more mindfulness. This course also consists of a weekly, 75-minute classes taught over four weeks.

KORU RETREAT: A half-day silent, mindfulness retreat  for students wanting to try a more intense mindfulness experience.

We Train Teachers

The Center for Koru Mindfulness trains and certifies individuals to teach the Koru Mindfulness curriculum. The Koru Mindfulness faculty are the originators of Koru, with years of experience teaching mindfulness and working with young adults.

The Center also provides resources and support for certified Koru teachers, helping them to establish Koru Mindfulness programs for the college students they serve.

Certified Koru Mindfulness teachers are trained to offer all 3 components of the Koru Mindfulness curriculum and have access to all the materials they need to develop, market, and teach Koru Mindfulness. See where our teachers are teaching.
