A Special Study of Character & Personality Development (Mussar)

        Tremendous effort is devoted to the acquisition of Yiras HaShem - the correct attitude towards G-d, which results in man having the proper relationship to himself, his fellow man and to the A-mighty. Following the great Rabbis of the Mussar Movement, the Yeshiva engages in a deep study of the forces within man. Students receive intensive training in the art of being master of their emotions and feelings in accordance with Jewish values. A particular example of this training is the weekly session called Va’ad Mussar, in which students offer and receive open constructive criticism from their friends for total growth.
