Sacred Hebrew Letter Dance
Hebrew Letter Dance is a moving, meditative and joyful exploration on the letters associated with the traditional themes of Shabbat and the season.
No steps to learn. No dance experience necessary---just your breath, imagination and your own unique expression. Ancient and contemporary World Jewish Music will accompany our journey of inspiration for the body, mind and soul.

Doctor Lost or Found Podcast
Rabbi Eli Cohen and Dr. Michelle Choi speak about the Kabbalah and Jewish mysticism. Kabbalah is a discipline and school of thought in Jewish mysticism, to explain the relationship between the unchanging and eternal God. We talk about how God moves in mysterious ways, how the essence of God could have always been there even when we don't see it. A truly fascinating discussion as we talk about true knowledge as we try to understand our inner process, learn and grow, to know the essence of God.
We are starting to have services at our physical shul!
And we still have an array of exciting virtual classes and services available via Zoom. Join us for Kabbalat Shabbat services, Saturday morning services.
