WHO I AM
I'm Maria-Carin Gala, and I've spent over 25 years as a personal chef and cookery teacher. I'm also training to become a facilitator of ZeroOne Movement practice.
Dance and wholefood cooking saved my life—helping me heal from anxiety, food struggles, and addiction. Now I combine both practices to help others find their way back to vitality and joy.

Do you want to learn to cook more plant-based and gluten-free foods as well as incorporate a movement practice into your life to connect with your body, mind and soul — for your overall wellbeing?
I'm MC (Maria-Carin) Gala, the mistress of wild dance and good food, some have called me.
Here you can access an overall well-being approach to life.
You can find all the yummy plant-based, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free cooking of Gala's Organic Kitchen — as well as dance and movement infused with the power of life force.
Everything is designed to open up your energy, creativity and zest for life!
I know first-hand what it’s like to deal or live with food-addictions, emotional blocks and have used dance and healthy cooking, (and continue to do so), to live with these difficulties and to find a creative force and strength in these challenges.
