"A magically aligned experience! This raw food chef course goes beyond cooking—each day starts with optional breathwork or yoga, enhancing the holistic journey. Lessons are clear and hands-on, covering chopping, knife skills, blending, fermenting, and plating. We had the freedom to experiment, adapting recipes to our tastes. Every dish was delicious, and the final lunch party beautifully showcased our skills, creativity, and camaraderie. Highly recommend Alchemy Academy!"
“My time was so amazing, I was expecting a cooking course and I got so much more! Everything was intentional and beautifully curated to create an experience to remember.”
"I am really glad I decided to join this course. It’s such an inspiring, wonderful and super useful subject! I love everything about it."
"Wonderful location and beautiful venue! Come here for a free dessert tasting when they host it! If you are enrolled in a raw vegan cooking class with Alchemy, you'll probably have your class here. The staff is friendly and helpful as well."
I don't know what to say about the Raw Vegan Chef Certification I just finishes at Alchemy Academy.
It was a 13 day absolutely life changing course that not only taught me how to cook vegan and raw food but also showed me the importance of hydration, hygiene, knife skills, all about kombucha, all about chocolate, group coaching... The Alchemy Academy space is simply perfect.
"Alchemy Academy is Amazing! I was fortunate enough to be able to attend a course in August 2019. From the moment I arrived I knew this was the place I was meant to be. Shanti the founder also created Alchemy Cafe. Its not just about the amazing food you learn to create but also the philosophy of kindness and connection with food as a living entity that really impressed me."
Hi everyone, my name is Alejandra Borjas. I took the Plant-Based Cook Level 1 course, and it was pure magic and beauty—felt like home and I enjoyed every second! Carolina and Lauren were the best teachers I could ask for, with their love, kindness, and empathy. Their knowledge and professionalism are amazing. I hope to return to this wonderful world of Alchemy one day. A thousand thanks for making my dream come true
" It has been a wonderful and exciting journey here at Alchemy, completing Levels 1 and 2 of the Cooked Plant-Based Course.
I feel so grateful to be here and to have learned so much from the amazing teachers! I have never met teachers as inspiring as those here. They have a lot of knowledge, not just about food but in so many other areas too. Their experience shows in the way they teach-whether it's using a smoking gun, explaining recipes in detail, or giving clear demos.
I have made memories that I will always carry in my heart! ❤️ ".
"Can I give it 10 stars?! This was the best 10-day experience! The course is perfectly structured, blending theory, hands-on practice, and creativity. The teaching team—Shanti, Lauren, and Carolina—are world-class, and Emily’s personalized yoga made each morning special. The schedule felt effortless, with a great vibe and the best cooking playlist! Highly recommend!"
"An incredible experience from start to finish! The warm hospitality, seamless organization, and supportive team made learning effortless and enjoyable. The diverse group and weekend adventures enriched the journey even more.
Alchemy Academy is more than a cooking course it’s a transformative experience of connection, culture, and self-discovery. Grateful for the harmony, values, and knowledge shared. A dream come true!"
"My friend and I loved our learning experience at Alchemy Academy. Each day was filled with diverse subjects that enriched both my mind and skills. The Cook Level 1 course was amazing—beyond new recipes, I appreciated the variety of activities. Yoga before class recharged us, and the weekend matcha culture experience was a great addition. Truly a rewarding journey!"
