THE PRACTICE  KEEP ON GOING 

Getting started on the path of tenzo  and become a messenger 

of the kitchen of benevolence  

The purpose of this transfer   is to bring  the necessary framework for the manifestation of the integration dynamics of deep food. This requires information but above all the creation of the setting necessary for the emergence of knowledge which is built in the heart of each one. In the form of companionship, each student undertakes to remain available for practice in order to receive as much experience as possible.

The basic training lasts 2 years after which everyone presents their project. She  ends with  a certifying validation of   Messenger from The Kitchen of Benevolence.

Once certified, messengers are given the opportunity to lead workshops (TAP), culinary workshops in associations, open a catering activity, start a restaurant  based on the principles of shoujin ryori updated in France. They also continue to participate in Labs on permaculture and  regenerative cooking for transitional communities.

the practice  continues is a cycle where  it is possible to enter  in any season so   to do the complete cycle over one year;
 

To explore the whole holistic dimension of food and all the hopes of a benevolent eating practice.

From zen to deep ecology, these first modules are the basis of the principles of benevolent cuisine to be completed according to one's needs and desires.

This training allows those who already have a practice of transmission to bring a more holistic look at food. 

It is also for anyone interested in the path of food as  way of life and transformation of the world. 

Deliberately designed on a human scale in order to favor the systemic experience of the group over factual knowledge 

More than a training it is a commitment to oneself and the world and the posture here cannot be the one who comes to consume but the one who comes to bring his presence and from there to operate  the integration of what is going to be lived.
