About our Vision & Mission

Rabbi Yehoshua Gerzi models living kindly, consciously, and with integrity, while exuding an infectious appreciation for giving space to others, so as to enable their unique light to flourish and shine.

Endearingly known to his students as the “Pilzno Rebbe,” Rabbi Gerzi teaches extensively on the halachic and mystical tradition he has received from his family and mentors stretching back to the Baal Shem Tov and the Vilna Gaon, as well as kabbalistic and halachic schools of the Sefardi and Edut HaMizrach Chachamim.
