I hasten to say that the workshop, in its content and its organization, was a
refreshing change from the typical 'blah-blah-blah'. I liked the idea of breaking up the teaching sessions with
multi-media presentation, with music and with practical exercises.... Not at all what I expected from a workshop
based in an ancient spiritual tradition!
The workshop was enriching in every sense. The 
quality
of the information taught, as well as the pleasure that Jeff took [and shared] in presenting his unique approach
to the letters. It was a terrific weekend, very intense and deeply satisfying. The workshop provided me with a
solid basis of knowledge which, I am sure, will help me to deepen my knowledge of the Kabbalah and my 'sensitivity'
to the different energies of letters. Thank you, Jeff, and again once: Bravo!
New horizons were opened for me, or rather I rediscovered a 
forgotten universe that informs our present culture, all this given to me with the openness of heart and
openness of mind that I appreciate so much in Jeff. I experienced in this workshop the joy of calligraphy, the
pleasure of singing, the beauty of the sacred texts, the gift of sharing with others. I have a new tool for personal
growth, because the teachings of the workshop encourage me to continue on my own path, accompanied, of course,
by the powerful and sympathetic energy of the Hebrew letters. This workshop was a true gift and I thank the universe
for it. Thanks as well to Jeff, who led the workshop with professionalism, with the richness of his inner world,
and with his love that he shared with all of us.
First, the encounter with the leader/guide of this marvellous journey: Jeff is a well-spring
of love, of playfulness, of knowledge, all of this manifested in simplicity and unpretentiousness. He shares his
knowledge with a marvelous energy and solicits our joyous participation. He is very organized, he takes us on a
journey that leads to surprising discoveries, and all is shared with affection. I feel in my rightful place, my
interior child exults, it is a moment of true happiness! Thank you, Jeff.
I have sincerely enjoyed this workshop, and I recommend
it warmly to all! Anyone who wishes to understand the Hebrew letters... this is a great place to start. [The content
of the workshop was] very dense. I gained knowledge in so many ways, knowledge that I have been seeking for years.
I really loved the non-directive approach of Jeff, an approach that encourages: to study, to draw, to see, to hear,
to sing... and that asks us personal questions... but all of it with kind attention, with sympathy, but without
judgment, without correction, free of personal opinions, advice, etc. A very, very rare quality among workshop
leaders. 
As for the 'tool kits' and the workshop Guide... the generosity of thse 'gifts' is touching, and their ingenuity
is gratifying. One feels Jeff's enthusiasm for sharing, for leading us to discover everything that he finds so
beautiful in the tradition... like a spell-binding story-teller!
The presentation of the Hebrew letters and Jewish culture is very even-handed, not too difficult, easy to digest...
but rich enough to lead us to marvel at it... and to give us the desire to learn more!
Terrific, Jeff! Your personality and your knowledge! It is the first time in my life that someone made me like
and to appreciate history, the ancient past! It was a very rich weekend that deserves a deepening of every theme
that Jeff touched on.
I appreciated the presentation of letters: the multi-media
support as well as the calligraphy. It was also moving to hear prayers recited in this language. The songs were
were very beautiful... and I loved this alternation between multimedia presentations and the others aspect of the
teaching.
The workshop taught me a lot about the relations between people. The strength of letters permitted me to discover
that a smile and a generous heart can move mountains. [The teachings on] the tree of life made me understand that
I am a channel for the divine light. The therapeutic approach of 'the four worlds' was a big step in my evolution.
Thank you, Jeff.
The Hebrew letters spoke to me, challenged me, questioned me… with grace and gentleness. They
had a lot to tell me. I was very often moved. The creative and historic aspects of Jeff’s teaching were also very
interesting. Jeff's serenity, his humility, his generosity touched me. With few words, he conveyed to us that he
saw each of us as marvelous, beautiful, exceptional.
I found a lot of wisdom in the workshop… very beautiful encounters, also. Your serenity and
your humility honor you, dear Jeff...
It was a real pleasure to listen to Jeff ‘tell the story’ of the Hebrew letters. In learning
the calligraphy, I felt filled with the unique and powerful energy of the letters. The Tree of Life appeared me
under an aspect more simple, clearer, and more logical. I appreciated Jeff’s humanity, his listening skills, his
humble way of transmitting a message of love and sharing.
Beyond the magic represented by the discovery of the Hebrew letters and their
symbolism, these two days were for me pure happiness… like a rebirth after months of "wandering in the desert".
Everything I learned fascinating. This workshop was a rendezvous with life, one of those that remains engraved
on the heart and the soul. Jeff, your passion for the letters is contagious. Thank you!
Dear Jeff, thank you for the quality of the workshop and the information transmitted. I loved
the organization of the workshop: the intellectual alternating with the creative… study, singing, calligraphy,
partner exercises, slide shows….
I very much appreciated the easy flow of the workshop (no stutters, no hiccups), the good
balance between serious study and playful learning. I admired the commitment of all the participants… they gave
the very best of themselves.
A lot of professionalism, of high-level instruction, of sweetness and love from Jeff. One
doesn't feel constrained, in spite of the dense program. One discovers again and again the wealth of the tradition…
its depth, its expanse, its infinite possibilities.
When the workshop ends, one feels in peace with oneself, at the soul level, thanks to the
quality of the information and the sharing. I am full of gratitude to have participated. In brief, it is the kind
of experience that one would wish to live every day!
First of all, I really want to thank Jeff for everything that he taught us along the way, with his ‘joie
de vivre’ and his respect for every participant. The message is all the more powerful because Jeff is a captivating
teacher and committed to what he transmits. Jeff allowed me to discover the Hebrew letters and gave me a desire
to go deeper in the the knowledge of this magical tradition. A big thank you to Jeff for everything that he shared!
What a rich experience! Jeff, you opened the doors of Knowledge, Understanding, and Shared
Experience. Thank you for your teaching and for your workshop… You made the Kabbalah accessible to us all!
