Come hungry, bring friends, and settle in for an evening of connection and comfort.
Timings:
6.00pm – Embodied Light: Welcome in Shabbat through body and breath with Maxine Levy
6.45pm – Shabbat dinner
Choose to begin the evening with Embodied Light, a guided meditation and breathwork session designed to help you arrive, settle and reconnect. Rooted in the idea of Kavannah (intention and mindful presence), the session combines gentle movement, breathwork and stillness to explore how we can cultivate light from within.
No experience is needed - just come as you are. The session offers a grounding way to transition into Shabbat before we gather together for dinner.
Please wear comfortable clothing suitable for sitting or lying down in, and you may also wish to bring a water bottle (refill stations available).
Please email gianina@jw3.org.uk with any dietary requirements by 16th Nov latest.

FAQs
It’s my first time coming along, AHHH!
Coming to an event for the first time can be a scary experience, especially if you are new in town or haven’t done anything like this before. So please email me to say hello at gianina@jw3.org.uk and I will make sure you're welcomed when you arrive.
I'm not in my 20s or 30s. Can I still come?
We're glad you're interested, but this event is specifically geared towards people in their 20s and 30s!
Our Young JW3 community is all about building a safe and welcoming space, and we kindly ask that you respect this age guidance.
Do I have to dress in a particular way?
There is no one way to dress for Friday night dinners. Some have the tradition of wearing their best clothes, others like to be more casual, a few of us may be coming straight from work in whatever we put on that morning. Whatever makes you feel good!
Do I have to be a particular type of Jew to join?
Definitely not! Our Friday Nights are open to anyone who’s interested in marking the end of the week with friends, food, drink, and good conversation.
I’m [insert dietary requirements here]. Will there be food for me?
Of course! All our food is certified Kosher and we can cater to additional dietary requirements (e.g. veggie/vegan) upon request. Please email gianina@jw3.org.uk by the specified date to let us know how we can best accommodate you.
