Description
Andrea Castillo has practiced Insight Meditation since 1998 under the guidance of Gil Fronsdal. She has taught Dharma at the Insight Meditation Center (IMC) since 2011; she has specialized, although not exclusively, in teaching in Spanish for the Hispanic community. Andrea was trained as a teacher at IMC by Gil Fronsdal and graduated from the Insight Meditation Society (IMS) teacher training, led by Joseph Goldstein. She offers Insight residential retreats in English and Spanish in the US, Latin America, and Spain. In her teaching she is most interested in exploring the intersection between the Buddha’s discourses, our direct experience, and our capacity for creativity. Before dedicating herself to the practice and teaching Dharma, Andrea worked in academia researching and teaching musicology.
