About US!
Machon Lemalah is a unique seminary program that blends deep Torah learning with real-life experience, personal growth, and unforgettable adventures. We begin our journey in Los Angeles, where girls spend their first month building a strong foundation in Torah, hashkafah, and personal development. This month creates a warm, tight-knit community and gives each student the confidence and clarity to grow even further.
After the first month, students continue their seminary experience in Eretz Yisroel, where they learn, explore, and feel the depth of living Torah in the heart of our homeland. From meaningful shiurim and inspiring teachers to hands-on chessed opportunities, students gain a connection to Eretz Yisroel that stays with them long after the year ends.
Throughout the program — both in LA and in Israel — the girls enjoy incredible trips, powerful experiences, and opportunities to see Yiddishkeit come alive. Whether it’s exploring the beauty of California, visiting inspiring places in Israel, or bonding through group activities, our students grow not just in learning, but in confidence, character, and connection.
At Machon Lemalah, every girl is seen, supported, and encouraged. Our staff is warm, caring, and deeply invested in helping each student rise to her potential — spiritually, emotionally, and personally.
Machon Lemalah isn’t just a seminary.
It’s a journey. It’s a family. It’s a place to rise higher — Lemalah.
