Learn the secrets of Tonique Cuisine®
Following the resounding success of our French edition, we are delighted to now offer the Aspiring Chef in Tonique Cuisine® retreat to our English-speaking audience!
This retreat is much more than just a cooking class; it’s an opportunity to equip yourself, reinvent your relationship with food, and explore new flavors that marry perfectly with your well-being.
In a world where awareness of what we eat is becoming increasingly important, we’re here to accompany you on your culinary journey.

Once you’ve finalized your creations, you can enjoy the outcome of your collaboration, exchanging more than just meals: culinary tips and an authentic connection.
Designed and hosted by a passionate chef
Solène Thouin
Solène Thouin is a passionate chef. You can see her eyes light up when she talks about cooking! She’s also fascinated by the relationship between nutrition and overall health. It’s the confirmation of the impact of a plate composed of healthy, whole foods on health that motivates her choices and the themes of her conferences.
A simple, tasty and holistic approach will guide you towards a colorful, tasty, gourmet and balanced plate that makes sense for you and suits your specific needs.
The aim is to live life to the full without pain, with maximum vitality and energy to achieve your daily and long-term dreams and goals.
To obtain her certification as a nutritherapist, Solène completed a total of 600 hours+ at EESNQ and IESN as part of the Naturopathy training. She also holds a Nutrition Coach Certificate from the FOOD MATTERS* institute in Australia.
