As you cook, you'll learn about the nutritional benefits of each ingredient and how they play a crucial role in the Blue Zone lifestyle.


Whether you're a hands-on enthusiast or prefer to observe and savor, you can choose how much to participate in this immersive experience.


By the end of the class, you'll not only have a deeper appreciation for the culinary traditions of Costa Rica but also a newfound understanding of how simple, wholesome ingredients can lead to a longer, healthier life. So, roll up your sleeves, grab a wooden spoon, and get ready to cook your way to longevity.
