[2] A major component of the institute is Yeshivat Hadar, which offers both summer and year-long fellowships for students to learn full-time in the yeshiva setting.
[6] Founded in 2006 by Rabbis Shai Held, Elie Kaunfer, and Ethan Tucker as an institution for intense Torah study and as an advisory for congregations and minyanim looking to reinvigorate their prayer services, Hadar has since grown to include a unique array of offerings that reflect the true splendor—hadar in Hebrew—of Judaism.
In March 2017, Hadar celebrated its first 10 years with a year-long, weekly podcast on Pirkei Avot,[7] a siyyum on Seder Nezikin, and a national shabbaton that drew more than 500 attendees.
Mornings are devoted to Talmud and afternoon courses typically cover topics such as halakha, midrash, maḥshava, and tefilla.
Joey Weisenberg, a Yeshivat Hadar faculty member also wrote a book for independent minyanim, Building Singing Communities.
