Join us in Toronto for a transformational Jewish chanting weekend with world-renowned Rabbi Shefa Gold, where sacred Hebrew chants become a pathway to healing, connection, and joy. Through chants that weave simple, repeated traditional phrases from Jewish sacred texts with breath and melody, participants are invited to open the heart, quiet the mind, and awaken the soul’s deepest longings. No prior musical or chanting experience is needed—just a willingness to listen, sing, and be carried by the power of sacred sound.

About Rabbi Shefa Gold
Rabbi Shefa Gold is an internationally respected teacher, composer, and spiritual guide, widely recognized as a pioneer of contemporary Jewish sacred chant. A student of Reb Zalman Schachter-Shalomi and a leader in the Jewish Renewal movement, she has created hundreds of chants sung around the world and is the author of influential books including Torah Journeys and The Magic of Hebrew Chant. Her work bridges ancient wisdom and modern spiritual practice, inviting people of all backgrounds into deep, embodied prayer and healing.
