"The ultimate weekend course packed full of food, fun and learning."
Are you ready to go "more raw" or all raw?
In this unique weekend programme, the first and ONLY one of its kind, Karen will share with you the 7 key steps to creating a raw food lifestyle that works for you ongoingly - one that will evolve and change as you do, and one that you can actually maintain. These 7 steps are The 7 Steps to Going and Staying Raw and Karen will be walking you through each and every one of them.
By the end of the weekend you will have learned more than you ever thought possible, and you'll be inspired and more than well equipped to make the changes you desire in your own home, for today, tomorrow and the rest of your life. This course is life-changing.

Testimonials
“Just a quick one to say THANK YOU for an absolutely excellent weekend. It was a fantastic introduction into the raw food lifestyle that has left me completely in awe, and totally inspired. It has left me on a bit of a high, with so much positivity to pursue - a batch of flax crackers is already in the dehydrator, and a spinach and mango smoothie went down an absolute treat yesterday =)” - Claudia Edmondson, Kent
“A thoroughly enjoyable weekend. You are never too old to go raw! I just wanted to say again a big 'thank you' for such an interesting weekend. Although my intentions are not to go completely raw, it has opened my eyes to a whole new lifestyle.” - Julia Edmondson, Kent
“An excellent weekend. Delicious food, fun like-minded people and fantastic coach. Thank you.” - Laura Thorpe, York
"Karen, thought I would let you know that I am bizarrely happy at the moment! After your course, I ended my "sort of" relationship as I knew it wasn't meeting my needs and I wouldn't go 100% raw in those circumstances. I've been up and down since but had a surreal experience this weekend - just started to feel happy for no apparent reason; it must be the sun and all the green juice I've been drinking! Am seriously into green juices, bought the Green Star juicer from you (and a Vita-Mix) and am LOVING IT! Everyone thinks I'm mad, but given how happy I am, some people have asked what I'm on! I hope you are really well and enjoying life. Thanks SO much for helping me, I cannot describe how much of a difference it has made!" - Gerry Lewis, UK
“What could be better? Learning about preparing and eating great food and feeling amazing as a result. Thanks for an excellent weekend. It was everything I had hoped it would be - and more! Books are OK, but nothing beats actually seeing how raw food is prepared and being able to ask about the details. Will you be doing a Raw Food for Intermediates at any time?! If so, you can count me in.” - Geof Brooke, Yorks
“A truly inspiring experience in a gentle and relaxing atmosphere which gives the participant mental, emotional, spiritual and physical fuel to move powerfully forward in their diet and their life.” - Jennifer Lee Jellicorse, London
“An exceptionally educational and entertaining weekend, that was a thoroughly enjoyable and fun experience. Karen has now inspired me to move into 75% raw…& aim for 100% by year end. A huge thank you.” - Martin Crompton, USA
“This weekend was a life-changing experience for me. I never imagined going raw until now. I am ready to take the leap into a new world of exciting foods. Karen you are the best.” – Gloria Outen, London
