Introduce yourself to your fellow students. Write a few words about yourself and about what you expect from the course.

[Michael]

Hi everyone, my name is Michael Pressler, and I’m joining you all from Austin, Texas. I’m in my 60s and I’ve been a spiritual seeker for most of my life, always exploring questions about God, spirituality, and purpose. My journey with Kabbalah began back when it gained popularity in the late ‘90s and early 2000s, and it always resonated with me. Although I don’t identify with any particular religious background, I’d say I’m culturally Christian and chosen Jewish, so I have a bit of familiarity with both traditions. Recently, with everything happening in the world and some shifts in my own life, I’ve felt a renewed desire to seek deeper understanding and connection. I really love the idea of the Creator and see myself as part of that continuous creation. I’m really excited to learn, connect, and grow with all of you!

 

[Albertina]

Hi Everyone. I’m Albertina from TX, US and have been steadily growing in understanding along my spirit path. Ever since I can remember I have had many questions and a thirst to know and understand more. I grew up in a Christian household but was never satisfied and always felt there was an underlying truth, something deeper I needed to find. My journey has been a winding one from Christian, to an atheist focused on neurobiology, technological advances and quantum theories, to non-religious spiritual seeker. I heard of Kabbalah a few years ago but have only recently started to dig in. I was blown away by how it neatly and clearly described the understanding I have been able to cobble together over the years. I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface and I am very excited to learn more.

[Chileshe Bwalya]

Hi everyone, my name is Chileshe from Zambia. I want to have a deeper understanding of Kabbalah, I first discovered Kariba in 2010, but it has been confusing studying on my own. I really want to understand how one can connected to the creator.

[Paul]

Hi everyone! I’m Paul, a baritone trained in Bel Canto who began officiating as a junior Hazzan in Bogotá. I’ve served as a spiritual leader across South America and Europe, including Stockholm’s Great Synagogue and now Belsize Square Synagogue in London. Trained in diverse cantorial traditions, I have a passion for Jewish liturgical music—especially Sephardic and Western European styles. A former dentist and translator, I also lecture on liturgy, guide B’nei Mitzvah, and officiate life-cycle events. My interests include the teachings of the Rabbi of Piaseczno and Jewish meditation. I’m excited to connect and share this journey with you!

Hello all!

Super humbled to see so many people willing to learn the secrets of the Kabbalah. I am for one, excited to see how this esoteric subject will transform me into a novel understanding and perspective.

I’m from Australia and from a generally Christian/ Secular background.

Much love
Hayden
