While boosting your fitness and sharpening personal skills, you'll also have the chance to learn Hebrew, study the history of Jewish and Israeli heroes, experience Israel through unique and exciting trips around the country, and meet other 18-30 year old Jewish men and women from all over the world. Budokan's self empowerment program is suitable for martial arts beginners to those arriving with black belts in hand.

Extras: You will receive a recognized martial arts certificate. Those with previous experience in martial arts will be able to hone their competitive skills. Located by one of Israeliās most beautiful beaches, there will be occasional beach trainings and other beach activities. The encounter with Jews from around the world and Israelis who practice martial arts will enhance your understanding of life in Israel and the Middle East, and will contribute to strengthening ties between different Jewish communities.
