Do I have to be religious to participate in a TorahTrek program?
Unless specifically noted, there are no religious prerequisites for TorahTrek adventures and programs, other than an open mind and heart. While those with strong Judaic backgrounds and/or spiritual training will benefit from their experience and knowledge, TorahTrek adventures are designed so that those with little or no religious or spiritual background can participate fully. This is accomplished by planning group activities at different skill levels, teaching forms of spiritual expression that are new to everyone, and always allowing time for individual practice. Those who bring their own spiritual disciplines have the opportunity to deepen their practice, while newcomers and beginners receive instruction appropriate to their skill level.
