While at a book fair in her native Israel, Yael came across Kabbalah and instantly connected with the wisdom. She bought a Zohar on the spot and registered for the very next Kabbalah 1 course. She valued how the teachings gave her an understanding of how things work in life, giving her the ability to be in control in her own.

Quickly realizing she had found her platform to effect positive change in the world, Yael immersed herself in the wisdom, becoming a full-time volunteer in 2001 and a Kabbalah Centre Instructor in 2011. She likes to be practical in her teaching method so that students can use the lessons learned in their everyday life. Not one to be afraid of sharing experiences from her own life, Yael jokes that by the end of a 4-week course students know her inside and out. She particularly enjoys teaching about love and relationships, believing that all spiritual work manifests through relationships with others.

Yael currently teaches Kabbalah in Toronto, where she lives with her husband and their four children. She envisions a world in which all peoples remember that we are all one and embrace unconditional love for each other. Kabbalah has changed her life by helping her to understand her life and get out her comfort zone to have new experiences, and she hopes to impart that same transformation on as many people as possible.
