Flavors of Hope: An Unforgettable Israeli Culinary & Resilience Experience

Following Re'em, Brothers for Yoga founder Neta Margalit and management team member Gabriel Traub will share how their holistic, self-regulation model has transformed from supporting 100 veterans to impacting over 8,000 individuals nationwide—providing a vital, scalable solution for trauma and healing in Israel today.

Friends of Brothers in Yoga is a U.S.-based nonprofit supporting the work of Brothers in Yoga in Israel. Brothers in Yoga creates supportive spaces where Israeli veterans and others affected by security-related trauma can reconnect with their bodies, strengthen emotional resilience, and experience community through yoga, meditation, breathwork, and other holistic practices.

Our work helps make these programs more accessible, sustainable, and far-reaching. Through fundraising, partnerships, community events, and education, Friends of Brothers in Yoga connects supporters in the United States with this important work in Israel.

Contributions help support ongoing classes and programs, expand access for new participants, strengthen community-based healing initiatives, train facilitators, and build the infrastructure needed to serve more people over time.

At the heart of our mission is the belief that healing does not happen in isolation. Through movement, connection, and shared experience, we aim to help people move from trauma toward resilience, belonging, and renewed hope.
