Yoga teacher Maxine Mirowitz will lead an “Adventure Torah Study” series one Sunday each month through June. Each lesson April 20, May 18 and June 22 will include a hike to a scenic point where students will discuss Jewish values followed by standing yoga and breathing sessions. 

“These classes seek to cultivate an awareness of nature and a sharpened sense of the participant’s Jewish identity,”  Mirowitz says.

To enroll, visit Torahtrailblazers.com. The calendar section shows dates and locations. Online registration is required and must include the submission of a signed consent form. Each class is limited to 25 students age 18 and older.  (A family hike will be scheduled in the fall located on a kid-friendly trail.)

This free program is funded by a 2013 Innovation Grant from the Jewish Federation of St. Louis.
