Danang Weekend Tibetan Language Class

Building strong foundations in speaking, reading, and writing with small groups and native-speaking instructors.

Learn Tibetan, Connect with Heritage

Our Weekend Tibetan Language Program offers beginner and intermediate classes designed to build strong foundations in speaking, reading, and writing. Serving children ages 6–12, the program provides a welcoming and engaging environment where students learn Tibetan language alongside mindfulness practices, cultural dance, and traditional instruments.

Taught in small groups by experienced native-speaking instructors, classes ensure personalized attention and meaningful learning. The program culminates in a final-day speaking and writing showcase, encouraging students to demonstrate their progress with confidence.

Beyond language instruction, we foster a sense of pride, compassion, and cultural connection — creating a joyful space where children from Himalayan backgrounds can explore their shared heritage and build lasting community connections.
