Description
"The food and wellbeing industry is in rapid transformation. It is no longer enough to be a classically trained chef or have a diploma in nutrition to fully understand, utilise and benefit from the ever emerging new products, techniques and approaches to health-promoting, creative raw-centric plant food - be it in a professional kitchen, a dynamic group setting or work with individuals. With this in mind, we combined a wealth of knowledge from Wild Food Cafe, Wild Food Cafe School and our personal journeys to create this comprehensive training programme formulated to provide professional plant-based chef and leadership skills." - Joel & Aiste Gazdar

You will gain practical group facilitation and leadership skills that will provide you with a framework to have an all-inclusive approach and vocabulary and enable you to connect the wisdom of the food and nourishment with the wisdom of the body, mind and spirit. You will be able to transfer this skill to any group or individual work: from yoga classes, to women’s groups, food workshops and nutrition clients.

TESTIMONIALS
Dominika Roszko, Medicinal Chef, UK "I am now fully confident to combine the wisdom of the food and nourishment on the cellular level with the wisdom of the body, mind, and soul. I have a few projects planned but starting with menu development, supper clubs and my own nutrition and food preparation workshops."
Marie-Anne, Chef & Cafe Owner, Edinburgh "The course gave me confidence in my own way of doing and looking at well-being related matters, and boosted me to go forth and create and develop my own raw food recipes. It taught me about presentation and flavour balancing, which has inspired me to run my own raw food supper club in January in Edinburgh. I am grateful to have received an echo to my own vision, which is enhancing my day-to-day progress towards realising it."
