About Jesus Chuy García:

Chuy, who identifies as Queer and Latinx, first encountered Shambhala in April of 2008 at a Level I weekend retreat. They drifted in and out of the center until 2018, when they committed to deepen their sitting practice. Since then, Chuy went on to complete all the introductory Shambhala levels and classes, then staff weekend retreats and classes, facilitate several book clubs, serve on the Board of Directors, and complete training as a meditation instructor. Chuy currently facilitates Affinity Groups at the Shambhala Center, which included Heart of Recovery, Queer Dharma, and the BIPOC group. As someone who has benefited tremendously from meditation, Chuy is committed to helping facilitate more opportunities for sitting practice. Away from the center, Chuy loves spending time with their big Mexican family, their beloved friends, and being out in Nature.
