About the Sangha

The Sangha is a modern Buddhist center in Copenhagen. A place where people can study and practice methods for personal development, self-care, and well-being – all for the benefit of the individual, as well as for businesses and society across industries and professional skills.

It is the Sangha’s desire to invite and inspire us to live a meaningful life, appreciating the precious moments and practicing care, bravery and kindness. The Sangha is a community of Buddhist wisdom. A vibrant hub for the study and practice of Buddhist teachings. Through study, meditation and reflection, members, students and guests are given the opportunity to quiet the mind and achieve greater levels of peace, clarity and compassion.

The Sangha is created and led by one of Denmark’s leading Buddhist teachers Marie Kronquist, who has worked with meditation, silence, mental training and mindfulness in Denmark and abroad for the past 15 years. Marie holds degrees from the University of Copenhagen and Kathmandu University. She is also part of the Shambhala tradition and a student of Pema Chodron. Her focus is to create well-being, serenity and awareness. In particular, Marie focuses on how Buddhist teachings can contribute to the modern world in a business context – and it is on this basis that the idea of the physical breathing space and meeting place Sangha was created and established.
