Our Mission

Our mission is to provide students with a profound understanding of Jewish values, beliefs, and traditions, while also encouraging them to put these teachings into practice in their everyday lives. We believe that learning about Judaism should spark both intellectual and practical engagement, ensuring students are not only informed but also inspired to live by these principles.

Program Overview

Nishmati (“my soul”) is Neshama’s innovative Bnei Mitzvah program developed by Rabbi Shneur Reti-Waks and the team at Neshama merging traditional Jewish learning with practical, real-life applications. The program offers a meaningful educational experience that connects with both heart and mind.

Program Structure

The Nishmati program seamlessly integrates theoretical study with hands-on experiences. Each term is crafted as a standalone 8-week unit, allowing students the flexibility to join at the start of any term, making the program accessible and adaptable to different schedules.
