There are classes for beginning and advanced students conducted in English, Hebrew, and Russian. Classes in additional languages are available upon request.

About Jerusalem

The city where past and present meet. Established over 3,000 years ago, the city of Jerusalem offers you the chance to literally reach out and touch the past. Known as the city of gold, Jerusalem is a magical mix of ancient and modern, where outdoor shuks (markets) rub shoulders with gleaming office towers. The city's most popular spots include a vibrant downtown with world-class restaurants and shopping, and the Old City, a maze of winding alleyways and colorful markets enclosed by walls dating back to the 16th century.

Safety and security

Whether you are a current or soon-to-be fellow or parent/guardian, we invite you to watch our Safety and Security video from Masa’s Chief Security Officer, Amir Keinan. This interactive video summarizes and addresses Masa’s main safety and security topics; you can choose the order in which you want to watch. Upon arrival, fellows will also receive a full safety and security briefing from their program organizer.
