Education for your wellness journey.
Being healthy is not a destination, it is a manner of traveling
and we are here to help you along your journey.
About Us
Being healthy is not a destination, it is a manner of traveling and we are here to help you along your journey. We all know we need to make improvements and we ultimately know why, but we don’t necessarily know how. Many well-intentioned doctors give all the right advice to follow, but patients are still left to try to figure out how to work that advice into their busy lives.
The Classroom offers numerous workshops, classes and discussions to help our students take simple steps towards living a healthier lifestyle. By incorporating a functional medicine philosophy, practitioners at The Classroom offer practical and long-term approaches, many of which focus on food and movement as medicine.
The Classroom connects students with local experts in their various fields of wellness, such as Nutritionists, Health Coaches, Chiropractors, Physical Therapists, Meditation and Mind/Body Specialists, Psychologists and Culinary Specialists.

The BRAIN-GUT Connection workshop. 🤯• Jaclyn Renee here! 🙋🏽♀️ I want to introduce you to my dear friend and colleague Dr. Cara Fenster, licensed clinical psychologist specializing in building empowerment and providing skill that can be used to cope with stressors ranging from children to adults. She takes a holistic approach to her practice and is very versed in the Brain-Gut Connection. @drcarafenster •
I always say, she’s the brains and I’m the gut. 😉 She’ll be joining me for an in depth workshop exploring stress and anxiety and how it’s specifically related to digestive issues through the brain-gut connection. This will be our 3rd time running this workshop and it’s always a huge success for clients to gain coping skills and complete holistic educAtions to begin their healing journey for their anxiety and gut health. •
For those that follow along know that I am no stranger to these symptoms and I carried crippling anxiety through most of my teens and 20’s. Working with specialist like Dr. Cara and practitioners like myself opened up a world of healing minus the medication and a life full of wellness and vitality. •
I cannot wait to share more education with you so you can get back to thriving again. Sign up through the link in our bio for the class titled “all about anxiety.”
