Neshama means soul or spirit in Hebrew, and the Neshama Minyan at Temple Beth Am prides itself on its "spirited" Kabbalat Shabbat services, which include singing, dancing and praying every Friday night. Led by Rabbi Susan Leider, the joyous service uses the melodies of the late Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach and is followed by a lovely Shabbat dinner. BYOKW (kosher wine). Fri., 6:15 p.m. $10 (children older than 5), $17 (adults and teens over 13). Temple Beth Am, 1039 S. La Cienega Blvd., Los Angeles. (310) 652-7354 ext. 230. http://www.tbala.org.
