Yeshivacation is an all-inclusive experience where students are pampered in mind, body, and soul. Participants reside at the Machon Chana campus building. Gourmet breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served on campus, and Shabbat meals take place in private homes of the Crown Heights community.
Each day is centered around a new theme, such as the role of Jewish women, the meaning of prayer, and the eternal gift of Shabbos. Tackling the theme from various angles, such as Jewish law, classical Jewish thought, Jewish history and Chassidic philosophy, students will gain a holistic understanding of the topic and learn how to integrate its lessons in their lives.
Mornings begin with prayer, a soulful and meaningful time to align your intentions for the day and communicate with G-d in whatever language you feel most comfortable! After prayer, indulge in a delicious breakfast to fuel up for a day of thought-provoking classes. After a pleasant lunch break, the experiential learning half of the day begins. Students will participate in tours of iconic Jewish sights such as a five star women’s mikvah or a wig salon. Take time off in the evening to relax, connect, and explore on your own or with new friends. Nights are filled with fascinating lectures and farbrengens—inspiring get-togethers full of song and sisterhood.
