My Mission

To guide and support individuals in their unique health journey through food and movement inspired by nature, ancient wisdom, and sustainable goal-setting.

I strive to empower others to pursue self-healing and self-evolution through food coaching and personalized yoga training.

It is an honor to meet you.


My name is Katy and I am the owner of Explore Healing Food and Movement. My passions of yoga and holistic/ healing food naturally started coming together in my last job before coming back to Minnesota in 2023, so starting this company seemed like the only next step to take to fully immerse people in the healing combination of movement and food.

I am a classically trained French chef with a bachelors degree in food anthropology and sustainability who turned into a holistic private chef two years ago after seeing first-hand the drastic difference healing and non-healing lifestyles have on individuals, especially surrounding eating rituals and movement practices.

After this eye-opening realization, I became a certified yoga teacher with specialties in brain longevity, structural alignment, mobility, and Ayurveda. Ayurvedic concepts combined with wholistic eating and local sustainability really inspired the unique services and programs offered in this company.

My primary goal with Explore Healing Food and Movement is to empower as many motivated people as I can to come back to natural health. I want people to KNOW how to listen to their bodies intuitively so they can prevent illness and injury all together and avoid annoying doctors office visits.

I want my clients to find food and movement practices exciting, sustainable in their lives, and healing instead of daunting and impossible which is how it often feels in the Western world.

I hope I have the opportunity to cater this process to you.

With love,

Katy Cassady
