Also special TONIGHT : The Male-Female Dynamic In Kabbalah @8:15pm with Rabbi Eliyahu Yaakov
For over a decade Rabbi Eliyahu Yaakov has been working to educate and inspire Jews of all backgrounds to take a fresh look at their Jewish heritage from the perspectives of Jewish philosophy and Kabbalah. With a plethora of parallels and explanatory precision, Rabbi Eli succeeds in communicating abstract ideas in a clear and meaningful way to the well-read student and the newcomer alike. Rabbi Eli’s world-renowned lectures and writings have captured the minds and hearts of many, and have helped to open the door for those looking to integrate truth and spirituality into their lives in a down-to-earth manner. By dealing with the whys of Judaism in a sophisticated yet practical way, Rabbi Eli’s teachings are a breath of fresh air for anyone searching for happiness, love, fulfillment, wholeness, or themselves, as he breaks Jewish stereotypes and misconceptions along the way.
Rabbi Eli moved to Israel from New Jersey in 2001 and currently lives in the Old City of Jerusalem, where he, along with his family, hosts hundreds of Jewish students and travelers for inspirational Shabbat meals each year.
Books by Rabbi Eliyahu Yaakov include Human By Choice: A Kabbalistic Path to Self Help (National Light), Halachic By Choice: Jewish Living in the Context of Kabbalah (National Light), and Shabbos Insights of the Maharal (Targum).

Raising a Mensch class with Slovie
Dear Friends,
We are living in incredible times. And I know that it is easy to feel overwhelmed with it all.
There is a sense that our families are vulnerable as we raise children and sustain relationships while the world around us seems out of control.
We want to hold onto all that is precious; our marriages, our relationships, our children.
Is there anything we can do to make our homes feel more secure? Can we maintain peace and tranquility?
Of course we can.
This year, more than any year before, is the time to make studying your priority.
This year, be the best that you can be. Tap into your roots. Explore the miracle that lies within the soul.
We are asking that, if possible, a donation of $180 be given as membership in young couples.
I look forward to greeting you personally. Together we will build homes filled with blessing and joy.
Fondly, Slovie

A Sephardic Woman’s Ancestral Journey in Flamenco Dance with 92y
Leilah Broukhim with Amir John Haddad, Juan Jimenez, Ismael Fernandez,
Mati Gonzalez, Luis Amador and Bahramji. Artwork by Elisabeth Louy.
This original flamenco performance depicts the personal and ancestral journey of a Sephardic woman from her family’s expulsion from Spain, to their life in Persia, to her return to Spain as a flamenco dancer. Created and performed by acclaimed flamenco dancer Leilah Broukhim, this highly personal work is an intimate expression of Ms. Broukhim’s roots, her personal journey and the history of her people. Accompanied by Sephardic, Ladino and Persian music performed by a Spanish ensemble, the result is a moving and unforgettable work of music, dance and art, which reminds us that the traces of our past define our present and our future. U.S. Premiere of the full production of Dejandro Huellas, parts of which were previewed last year at 92Y as a work in progress.
Part of the Flamenco Festival USA 2012
