Learn how to BRING YOUR FOOD TO LIFE with Stephanie Jeffs

Learn how to BRING YOUR FOOD TO LIFE using activated nuts and seeds and increase enzyme consumption with Raw Food Chef Stephanie Jeffs, founder of EXPLORE RAW. Learn how to activate a range of nuts and seeds as well as compare the difference between ‘regular raw’ and ‘activated raw’ nuts first-hand. This will be an informative and fascinating session that will unravel the mysteries and importance of activated foods for maximum health. Stephanie will also share some chef tips & recipes to help you add these ingredients to your diet.

Stephanie comes from a high powered corporate background and wasn’t always raw, in fact far from it. Taking care of her career meant the absence of looking after herself and very soon her health was out of control with PCOS, low energy and a healthy appetite for eating crap. Juicing and a raw food detox helped Stephanie lose 9 stones (120lbs) and reverse the symptoms of PCOS. And looking back it wasn’t that hard to do. Stephanie now hosts raw vegan bootcamps and yoga retreats in Portugal, teaches raw cookery school, and has been featured in many magazines. You can read her full story here.

Pre-lunch Movement Session with Elizabeth Banks

Elizabeth Banks is offering a unique movement session before the brunch. In this session you will explore your own movement potential under her expert eye as she guides you through simple and powerful movement drills to map your motions for a more confident movement experience.

The human body is a great compensator, however if left unattended our movement asymmetries can contribute to pain and limit performance. Elizabeth combines neurological and biomechanical methods to assess how your body moves and with her experienced eye she is able to assess your movement limitations, helping you move towards pain free confident motion through all ranges of motion, at every speed under varied loads.

By truly exploring your movement capacity you will move better and feel stronger than you ever have before. The movement session is optional. All you need do is wear comfortable clothes and turn up!

Elizabeth’s style of training is movement based, grounded on solid scientific principles gained through 15 years of education with a relentless drive to understand human movement. She is a Fellow of the Gray Institute, a TRX Master Trainer, and a strength and conditioning specialist (NSCA CSCS), as well as having studied neurology (Z Health and AMN). These combine to give her a unique understanding of biomechanics and neurology, allowing her to work with a range of clients from performance athletes to seniors.
