The Lolland Centre has the facilities to accommodate many practitioners at the same time and is therefore ideal for group retreats.
In a group retreat you meditate together with others, typically with other Buddhist from your local sangha.
The advantage of this is obvious: the community feeling is strengthened and new participants can experience the intense feeling of practicing together.
The group will most often decide on a program for the retreat in advance. Usually the unifying daily practice is a group meditation. But the group can also decide to focus on the study of selected teachings.
