Transforming Lives Through Connection
Every 10 weeks, we bring together deep souls for an immersive 10-day experience that goes beyond the ordinary. Our program offers more than just activities—it's a journey of authentic growth. Through meaningful farbrengens, wild trips, nourishing meals, and genuine brotherhood, we create a space where truth, fun and purpose come alive.
What makes these retreats truly transformative is the commitment each participant makes on their own—to disconnect from phones and step away from drugs for the full 10 days. This voluntary choice creates an environment of presence, authenticity, and deep connection that allows real growth to happen. It's this willingness to be fully present that makes our program so successful.
Here, lives are transformed with love, meaning is discovered, and lasting connections are forged in an atmosphere of warmth and authenticity.

This program completely transformed my life. I came searching for something more, and I found a path that changed everything. The authentic connections, the deep conversations, and the genuine care from everyone involved gave me the strength to turn my life around. I'm forever grateful.
Yisroel Meir
I always felt disconnected from my Judaism until I experienced this program. Here, I discovered authentic meaning and a real connection to my heritage. The farbrengens opened my eyes to the beauty and depth of our tradition in a way that felt genuine and alive.
Rabbi Hecht
I cannot express enough gratitude to Gavriel and this incredible program. My son was struggling both physically and spiritually, and I was losing hope. This program literally saved him. The care, the love, and the authentic guidance he received here brought him back to life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
