Faculty
Sayuri Tanaka

raw/vegan/macrobiotic chef & teacher

Sayuri's early experience with an unconventional way of eating fueled her enthusiasm towards healthy food from an early age, and naturally prompted her into the field of preparing natural foods. Her passion and ability to communicate these great talents exceeds more than the intricacies of creating amazing raw food... she takes a holistic approach on sharing perhaps the most valuable lesson - inspiring others how to embody a fuller and happier life, free from unhealthy obstacles and connected to your true nature through a raw food diet.

She worked as a chef at Pure Cafe in Tokyo, where she developed her passion for the art of vegan cuisine. Having studied the macrobiotic approach at Lima Cooking School in Tokyo and independently studied natural hygiene and plant base nutrition, Sayuri found herself in the raw food lifestyle, even before her formal training in this field.

Over 5 years, Sayuri has prepared a range of cuisines - both raw and cooked vegan - at the Purple Valley Yoga Retreat Centre in Goa, India, for six months out of the year. During the off season, she caters for yoga retreats and teacher trainings, and teaches vegan/raw classes internationally.

Sayuri also worked at Samudra, the raw food restaurant, in Australia.

In 2009 and 2010, Sayuri directly assisted raw food chefs Simone Power and Matt Samuelson at Radiantly Alive's Yoga Teacher Training in Bali, and was the head chef for the two week Level II Module in May 2010. She returned to us as head chef in 2011 and again this year.

Being a yoga practitioner herself & catering for many yoga retreats in India, Bali, Spain, Australia, U.S.A & Greece,has given her a greater understanding of preparing foods for yogis individual needs.

She proposes the healthy, sustainable and high conscious lifestyle for us, the earth and the future through teaching raw or cooking workshops and training around the world by sharing the love and knowledge she has within.

"As yoga transforms you, so does her food, this is my guarantee!"

Gourmet Living Foods
Fresh daily coconuts, tropical fruits, organic salads and raw chocolate is the ideal nourishment for the yogic and radiant lifestyle. The Radiantly Alive Yoga Teacher Training is the world's only yoga training and immersion that features gourmet, high vibration Living Food. We have access to incredible, bountiful organic produce, often picked within twenty-four hours of preparation in the kitchen; the world's best organic (really) raw cashews, cacao beans, cacao powder, vanilla; plentiful coconuts and tropical fruits; superfoods and herbs; and more. Meals and juices throughout the month will be provided as part of the program.

  The island of the gods, Bali and her people is a culture Yoga International magazine describes as 'living yoga.' Spirituality, harmony with nature, peacefulness - these elements embody the Balinese way of life. Ubud, an artist's Mecca, is the cultural heart of Bali. Embedded in rice terraces, temples and powerful energy, at a slight elevation so cooler than the nearby coastal heat, Ubud's climate has turned it into the perfect yogic destination.
