Online Classes

Your Mediterranean kitchen starts here

Seasonal, skill-building classes for vibrant health and everyday joy

So you're ready to dive into Mediterranean cooking? Welcome! I’m Chef Jeremy Rock Smith. Over the last five years, I’ve been teaching consistently online and have built up a rich library of digital classes touching on Mediterranean diets, Blue Zones, seasonal soups, grilling skills, sauce and more.

Through a combination of live and pre-recorded classes, you can build the foundational skills needed not just to cook well—but to cook the Mediterranean way.

After more than 20 years of teaching wellness cooking, I can say with confidence: the Mediterranean diet is one of the most sustainable and delicious ways to support long-term health. It’s not about restriction—it’s about flavor, community, and real ingredients. Backed by decades of research, the Mediterranean way of eating is:

  • Proven to promote heart health, reduce inflammation, and support longevity

  • Built on fresh, seasonal, plant-forward ingredients

  • Flexible, satisfying, and simple to recreate at home

So whether you join a live class or start with an on-demand course, you can begin right now—from your own kitchen—to take your health back and your life back.

These classes aren’t just about recipes—they teach you skills you can use every day, no matter what you’re cooking.
