    Rebecca Brenner's Bio

    Rebecca holds a Ph.D. in Nutrition from Clayton College. As a certified nutritionist she works with individuals, families, and local community organizations, helping them to create a sustainable nutrition plan for a life of wellness and joy.

    Rebecca is closely connected to Park City's local farm - Copper Moose Farm - as a chef and teacher. At the beginning of the summers she teaches kitchen prep classes for storing and at the end she leads workshops on how to can, pickle, freeze, and dry local produce. Through Copper Moose Farm, she also leads and cooks dinners that are made entirely with local foods. She happily volunteers there weekly, learning all about growing and animals from her favorite farm manager Daisy.

    Rebecca also offers workshops through Park City Holistic Health on food preservation techniques, artisan food practices, and localism. These are a mixture of large group, small group, and private classes led by Rebecca. Many of her clients are high profile business owners, celebrities and their families, world class athletes, and well-known artists and their families.

    She also writes a popular monthly column for Catalyst Magazine - the Alchemical Kitchen - that describes particular food preservation techniques and offers easy, delicious, and safe recipes for the reader to do at home.

    Rebecca began her studies of the body and movement through dance and somatic education at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (BA - 1998) and the University of Pittsburgh (MA – 2003). She has also studied movement, experiential anatomy, and kinesiology at Movement Research; the University of California, Irvine; and with contemporary dance companies in Pittsburgh, New York City, and Seattle.

    She received her 200 hour yoga teacher training certification at the Sivananda Vedanta Center in Nassau, Bahamas and her 500 hour advanced yoga teacher training through the Himalayan Institute of Yoga Science. She owned and taught at a successful Yoga Studio - Darshana Yoga Center - in the Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania for five years before moving to Park City.
