Courageous Cook Camp at La Pitchoune & Bramafam

Welcome to a week-long culinary escape dedicated to learning & play, the RecipeKick Way.

Courageous Cook Camp is an unparalleled luxury retreat that that combines the thrill & skill of recipe-free culinary classes using our proprietary Courageous Cooking Method; wellness activities like sound healing & yoga (all optional!); and plenty of culinary excursions to local makers and farms.

Every step of the way you get to choose your own adventure, and embrace a little courage in cooking and beyond.

Cook Camp is for ANYONE who wants to cook better, play with flavor and friends, and relax into the ease of a Provencal holiday on the historical properties of La Pitchoune and Bramafam. Led by our team of super passionate instructors from all over the globe, we’re here to wow and inspire you to create and expand your capacities as a cook; and to play with what it means to be present and in the here and now.

This ain't your typical 'campy' summer camp, no way! It's all about a low-key vibe, ditching recipes and going with the flow. Forget the canteen—there's an open bar, and plenty of things to keep the evening flowing long after the sun sets. And when it comes to campfire treats, we're talking Croissant S'mores! Yep, you read that right!

Pricing starts at $4,500 per person for a triple occupancy room, all-inclusive (excluding flight and transport to & from campus)
