Review for Bais Chana Women International Inc, Brooklyn, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I had heard Rabbi Manus Friedman speak once many years before going to my first Bais Chana. Newly Baal Tsuvah and looking for more learning I booked a Bais Chana retreat and with trepedation got on a plane to Palm Springs to join a group of women for a Bais Chana experince. After just a few days I returned totally transformed. The method of study was fantastic. Rabbi Friedman and the other teachers were more than that. Since then I have been to Bais Chana more than 15 times and helped to bring the retreat program to Florida so more women (and couples) could be exposed to this wonderful learning experience. I also was involved in the first Bais Chana trip to Israel. I, personally, love the Women's Retreats. Learning in that environment is easy. There is a commraderie amongst the women and an ease of communication. The thoughts that are expressed by the teachers and the students help take one to new levels of spirituality and understanding. I have gained many wwonderful friends from these retreats who live all over the world. We continue to share our lives and experiences with each other despite the miles that separate us growing upon the base that was established at our Bais Chana experience. I have tried many other learning experiences and have yet to find one that even approximates the type of learning and life style changes that one can experience at a Bais Chana. If you haven't been to a Bais Chana I stronly recomment that you find a program and go join the other women, couples or teens that are going for an experience of a life time.
