Together, as a community of learners we explore Judaism and all the wonderful aspects of living a Jewish life. We place a strong focus on mitzvot, holidays, rituals, Israel, and community. We learn through interactive activities, art, music, special events, family learning programs and more! Small group foundational Hebrew lessons, Hebrew Through Movement and Tefillah (group prayer) also take place throughout and flexible scheduling of individualized Hebrew lessons accommodate family needs.
