Len Goldstone: Massage - Is it Jewish?
2026-02-10 11:00 | Netanya AACI, 28 Shmuel Hanatziv, Netanya, Israel, 4228132, Israel
Len Goldstone: Massage – Is it Jewish?
11:00 Tuesday 10 February

Massage has a long and varied history. Its development since biblical times, if not before, is a fascinating account of practitioners, innovations and controversies. During its evolution, especially in the Western World and Middle East, Jews were involved in its practice and development. Detailed mentions in the Mishna, Shulchan Aruch and in the writings of Rashi and the Rambam, combined with the often hidden history of more modern Jewish practitioners and innovators, has led Len to ask: Massage – Is it Jewish?

Professor Len Goldstone had a busy academic career as Lecturer, Dean and Full Professor of Applied Statistics at several UK Universities, plus Visiting Professorships in Ireland and Texas, US, specialising in Health Service Research and Medical Audit. He took early retirement in the year 2000, in order to join the British Ministry of Justice as a Lord Chancellor’s Visitor, an Independent Advisor to the Judicial System in relation to Powers of Attorney. He finally retired in 2020.

Author of several books on Statistics, his last book took a surprisingly different direction. Essays on Massage History 1750-1950 (published in 2024) is the culmination of Len’s passion for this fascinating subject, developed during his wife Jennifer’s career as a Nurse and Remedial Masseur.

Len and Jennifer made Aliya from the UK in 2022 and have made Netanya ( and the AACI) their home. Their daughter Catherine Gordon and family live in Modi’in.

Art Class - with Ruth Lenk
2026-02-11 09:30 | Netanya AACI, 28 Shmuel Hanatziv, Netanya, Israel, 4228132, Israel
Art Classes With Ruth Lenk
9.30 Wednesdays
Forget that Art enhances fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, problem solving skills, lateral thinking, complex analysis and critical thinking skills. Art is fun! And you don’t need to have any experience to produce beautiful work.
I’ve heard that there are two steps to success: 1. Start 2. Carry on.
Take that first step by joining our Art class. We meet every Wednesday morning from 9.30-11.30.
Then, work with me to develop the techniques you want to master: pencil, watercolors, chalk, pastel, acrylic, collage. I am an experienced artist and teacher (let’s not count the years – but over 40) and I want to help you learn to express yourself artistically in a supportive and encouraging environment.
