Three Day Wellness Yoga and Cooking Course

Food and cooking are central to self-care and wellness. In this nurturing three-day cooking course, we combine hands-on cookery lessons with restorative yoga sessions. Join us at the Natural Cookery School in Nailsworth for this rewarding and unique experience.

Over three days, we’ll show you how to use locally sourced, organic ingredients to create a selection of seasonal dishes to rebalance your body, and we’ll teach you all about fermentation, baking and seed sprouting along the way.

Your experienced teacher Erin will share her expertise in culinary skills, seasonal foods, and combining ingredients with care, giving you all the tools you need to embrace a health-giving diet that’s packed with flavour and goodness.

To nourish your body further, we'll be holding yoga classes every day. These yoga sessions are run by Sharon from Grace and Glow, a yoga studio in Nailsworth focused on rejuvenation and empowerment.
