LOU WEIR
ORDAINED D.A. TEACHER

Lou is a certified Diamond Approach teacher and founder of Insight Meditation Ann Arbor. For years, Lou was a social security attorney who studied in a variety of spiritual practices, including Christianity, and various forms of Buddhism. In 1992, he found the Diamond Approach, and Lou became an avid student and practitioner. And now Lou is one of only a handful of full-time, ordained teachers in the world. 

What he loves about the Diamond Approach is that it supports each student right where they are, and helps point the way to greater realization. The practices hold each person in a respectful loving place, allowing them to see into even the hard places in their experience. As a former collegiate tennis player, he still enjoys playing regularly with his tennis friends. He also enjoys hiking and summertime at Lake Michigan.
