The Yokoji-Zen Mountain Center retreat is located on 160 acres of pristine wilderness in the local San Jacinto Mountains. The center is off-grid, operating primarily on solar energy and wind generators. Yokoji plans to establish a city center in the Long Beach area that will function harmoniously together with its current mountain retreat center.
Wayu has received Denkai (Precept Holder) Transmission from Tenshin Roshi. And Tenshin Roshi received his dharma transmission from Taizan Maezumi Roshi–one of the early Japanese teachers to bring Zen to the West in the 60′s. Denkai is the first step towards becoming an official Zen teacher, or sensei. Wayu is also a certified teacher of Chanoyu (Japanese Tea Ceremony) from the Uresenke School, Kyoto, Japan.
Also on Wednesday, we will be introducing our new segment with Taylor Nelson and Chris Livingston, of LB Food Review, a couple of light-hearted critics intent on eating their way through the best restaurants of Long Beach. Together we will produce bi-monthly segments about the local restaurant and bar scene that will air exclusively on Swoop’s World.

On Friday night at 8pm PST, Swoop’s World takes to the road again, joining Michelle Mangione and broadcasting from her performance at the Mirage Mediterranean Grill. This marks another return to First Friday’s to broadcast live from a participating venue.
