WJS: WOMEN'S JEWISH STUDIES
WJS is designed to teach women the significance and laws of being a Jewish woman physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Value and Responsibilities of the Jewish Woman
The depth of a Jewish woman goes far beyond the dedicated laws and rituals for women. WJS will provide you with a chance to understand the level of influence a Jewish woman has in the world and in her home as well as the responsibility it carries.

a Special women’s class dedicated to the inner and outer journey of converting to judaism
Becoming A Bat Israel
Each stage of the conversion journey opens new layers — of learning, of growth, and of self. As we move forward, new questions naturally arise — about synagogue life, observance, identity, and what the Beit Din is truly looking for. Together, we’ll explore these layers openly — through honest conversation, reflection, and Q&A.
Women enrolled in WJS will have access to weekly and monthly live classes and their recordings.
In addition, we have a collection of previously recorded classes on significant and important topics to every Jewish woman's life.
SAMPLE OF OUR COLLECTION
PREVIOUSLY RECORDED CLASSES
Gate Of Trust
Embark on a spiritual journey through the text Gate of Trust (Shaar HaBitachon) written by Rabbi Bachya ben Yosef. How do we remain calm, relaxed, and focused at the most trying moments? How do we enter into a state of tranquility and live from a place of worry-free existence? This class guides you towards genuine trust and faith in G-d, the vital component to every meaningful Jewish life.
Jewish Intimacy
Jewish Intimacy will initiate you into the Jewish rituals of physical and spiritual union between man and woman – Family Purity (Taharat HaMishpacha) and the Ritual Bath (Mikvah). This class is essential to laying the foundation of Family Purity Laws and their observance.
Modesty:
Uncovering Your Soul
This class invites women to reconnect with their inner strength and dignity, presenting modesty not as a restriction but as a path to reclaiming personal power. These lessons are essential for all Jewish women especially those converting, delving into the deeper aspects of being a true Daughter of Israel.
Secrets Of The Hebrew Calendar
Far more than a means to track time, the Hebrew calendar aligns us with powerful cycles that have shaped Judaism for millennia. In this class, you will learn how each month reveals unique energies that offer divinely given opportunities for spiritual growth and expansion.
