Kala has been absolutely AMAZING with our kids in teaching them kitchen safety and the basic tools etc., so informative. The kids have been excited to show off their newfound knowledge of tools and recipes, which has been a great help at home. She is super kind and patient with the little ones.

My girls came home with pizza today, one in a teddy bear shape and the other in a heart. They were so proud. They are learning so many new things. Thank you and can’t wait to join you for Level 2!

My 9-year-old daughter has taken classes with Kala and absolutely loves them! The smile on her face when I pick her up from class speaks volumes. Her confidence in the kitchen is increasing and she’s even open to trying new foods! Highly recommend signing your child up for a class or two.

My son loved the cooking classes. He loved being able to try out new techniques and also make yummy food. Thanks Kala for all your hard work!

My daughter had a great time over March break class and came home with sweet treats for all of us.

Kala is passionate about holistic wellness. She is knowledgeable, compassionate,and an amazing role model and mentor. I highly recommend her services as the benefits are life-changing!

My 6-year-old son is very interested in being in the kitchen! Kala’s classes have been an incredible start to his kitchen experience! I highly recommend kiddos taking Kala’s cooking classes.

My kids LOVED the time they had learning from Kala’s classes. The recipes are amazing and I loved when the kids brought home some to taste :)
