Winter Webinar

Intimacy Webinar

I gave a three part webinar on Intimacy and Sexuality for Jewish Workshops in the winter of 2014. The topic was by request, as was the level of frankness. I usually teach philosophy of intimacy in the context of marriage, but since, over the years, I have gotten so many private and practical questions, I have learned more about the practical side as well. Below is my leshaim shamayim (for the sake of Heaven) effort to share needed information along with philosophy for Jewish couples. I am neither a rabbi nor a therapist, and would like to urge the listener to consult both when the need arises for them. The information below is just meant to start conversations and open up thought, it is by no means the last word on any subject.


Each class was recorded with a powerpoint presentation. You can access both the recording and the powerpoint below, but I do not have an integrated recording of the powerpoint with the class, so you will just have to figure out on your own when to advance the screen.

After the webinar is a very helpful class on women's anatomy and sexuality by Rivka Sidorsky.

May you merit to learn and grow and to build your marriage with love and joy.

Here are two extra classes, the first presented to a mixed audience at the Seattle Kollel and the second to Sunday School parents, mostly couples, in Boca Raton. Both assume low levels of background. The Seattle class is almost an hour and a half, the Boca class assumes even less background and is shorter.
