RUACH ~ Youth, Families & Teen Learning
“RUACH – רוּחַ” is Hebrew for spirit, energy, wind and life!
The RUACH community school & programs for youth, families, and teens is a central and joyful part of the Beit Ahavah community. Kids and families learn in a positive, Jewish environment and progressive, Reform community focused on repair of the world and lovingkindness. RUACH (“ru-ach”) includes opportunities for learning led by dynamic teachers and Rabbah Riqi, cooperative opportunities for parent involvement, and special events, holidays, outings, Shabbat services, and community celebrations.
RUACH is our dynamic approach to creative and meaningful Jewish youth and families learning, social justice/tikkun olam (repair of the world), Hebrew, music, art, nature, spirituality, thought and Jewish expression. We also welcome parent involvement and creativity.
We explore creative and meaningful ways of learning, with community-based, joyous community programs for youth and families.
Registration is live for the new school year ahead! For questions or to talk with Rabbah Riqi, click here.

Joyous, Deeply Rooted, Child-Led
Our new’s year theme “L’Eeillah” means To heal the World in the Majesty of Nurture. We empower our youth and families with the richness of our tradition to make positive change and hope in the world as it is into the world we dream of and can make possible.
Through “mini-mesters” — Fall (stav), Winter (choref), Spring (aviv), and Summer (kayitz) seasons of learning, doing and being together, we celebrate the rhythm of the Jewish holidays and create hope in the world.
We believe in nurturing the inner wisdom of children and young people with learning about progressive Jewish values, empowering families, and creating learning environments that support and encourage wisdom, asking great questions (always more questions!), and having friendships with each other, teachers, Rabbah Riqi, students and families to expand and flourish.
In a child-led approach, we affirm that young people are the experts of their own experiences and learning styles, and work to meet all students where they are.
RUACH classes and program offerings build community, offer meaningful entryways into Jewish life, celebrate diversity, and deepen our commitment to tikkun olam (repairing the world) and love for our planet. With teachers and mentors, friends and family, we study, make Hebrew learning fun and useful, celebrate all the holidays, bring core Jewish values to life, go on “chavaya” real-world outings, delve into subjects through specialties and electives, do projects, build and make art, and have a lot of fun!
RUACH includes:
- Tot Shabbat Family Service & Tot Sha-potluck Dinner (especially for families and friends with kids 0-9) ~ The magical musical hour welcoming the Sabbath and holidays, led by Marlene Rachelle with Rabbah Riqi. Tot Shabbat is the first Friday of the month 5:15 p.m. followed by veggie Shabbat potluck (No-nuts), pizza provided. RSVP for Tot Shabbat is here. New Tot Shabbat New Families are encouraged to become partners here.
- MishpachArts (grades preK-2) ~ A new arts-infused program forming to build upon our strong Tot Shabbat Family service monthly group and do more creative arts, movement, cooking, music and creating together! This will be integrated with RUACH Arts as well as special events. “Mishpachah” means family.
- RUACH ARTS (grades K-3) group with additional opportunities for Friday Shabbat, Saturday morning “Shabbat B’Yachad” (Sabbath Together), holiday celebrations and gatherings, Hebrew aleph-bet through movement, art, cooking, Torah stories, values and crafts.

- HEBREW HAVURAH (grades 3-7) studies modern Hebrew and the prayer services, with healthy snacks, songs and fun in a great learning studio environment. We utilize a range of progressive curricula such as URJ Mitkadem, Hebrew Through Movement, Shiri the Llama, Hebrew in Harmony, and have a lot of fun. Hebrew Havurah teachers are passionate about Hebrew for kids and includes Rabbi Riqi and Hebrew specialists.
- B’NEI MITZVAH JOURNEY with Rabbah Riqi & specialists – for 6th and 7th graders (or older) tweens who are 1-2 years prior to celebrating becoming Bar/Bat/Bet Mitzvah. This supportive cohort led by Rabbah Riqi includes creative Torah study, discussion, art, class bonding, trips, tikkun olam mitzvah projects, and creating a supportive container with the rabbi for students and families on the journey to becoming B’nei Mitzvah, Jewish identity and becoming teens in a complex world.

RUACH embodies the three pillars upon with the world stands:
“The world stands upon three things: Torah (Jewish learning), Avodah (prayer and service) and G’milut Chasadim (acts of lovingkindness).” – Avot d’Rabbi Natan 11:1
Torah: Study – Engaging our minds and souls to deepen our connection with our past and to make our heritage relevant to how we live today through exciting Jewish learning. So much to learn and explore, ignite and apply!
Avodah: Spirituality – Awakening our hearts to connect to the Oneness of all creation through prayer, song, art, dance and other modalities, as well as service and connection to others.
G’milut Chasadim: Acts of Lovingkindness – Using our hands and hearts inspired by Jewish wisdom to perform actions that make the world a better place – Tikkun Olam, Repair of the World. To expand on the words of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, we are “praying with our feet and hands, hearts and minds.”
