Bianca Church is a Registered Nutritional Therapist (CANNP), MSc Clinical Nutrition Candidate (University of Aberdeen), and qualified adult educator with over 25 years of experience in holistic nutrition education.
Since the late 1990s, Bianca has worked across clinical practice, education, curriculum development, and professional mentorship within the holistic health field. Her work is grounded in adult learning principles and emphasizes clinical reasoning, pattern recognition, and thoughtful integration over protocol-driven practice.
Learn, Eat, & Be Well reflects Bianca’s long-standing interest in educational tourism where learning happens through food, culture, and lived experience, rather than classrooms.
ORIGINS OF LEARN, EAT, & BE WELL
Bianca first visited the Dordogne region of Southwest France with her husband, Tom, and immediately connected with the Black Périgord’s deep-rooted food culture, historic villages, and strong sense of community.
The region’s approach to food, simple, seasonal, local, and of exceptional quality, closely reflected the foundational principles Bianca had taught to students and clients for many years. These principles echoed the philosophy articulated by Danielle Perrault, the late founder of the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, whose emphasis on “live, natural, and good quality” food helped shape holistic nutrition education in Canada.
After multiple extended stays in the Black Périgord, Bianca developed long-standing relationships within the local community and a deep appreciation for French food culture and daily life. Over time, she recognized the region as an ideal environment for experiential nutrition education.
Learn, Eat, & Be Well was born from this recognition and from a desire to offer others the opportunity to experience, first-hand, how food quality, culture, and community shape health.
Holistic Nutritionist and Experienced Teacher
Bianca has been active in the holistic health field since 1998. Her professional path includes early work assisting a Master Herbalist, followed by roles in nutraceutical education and sales, clinical nutrition practice, and formal training in natural nutrition.
She became a board-certified Holistic Nutritionist in 2005 and completed additional certifications in breast cancer prevention, pharmacology, and advanced holistic iridology. Committed to lifelong learning, Bianca later completed a postgraduate diploma in adult education and is currently completing an MSc in Clinical Nutrition at the University of Aberdeen.
In addition to working with clients, Bianca has held numerous educational roles, including:
- Instructor in holistic nutrition programs
- Curriculum developer for the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition
- Graduate mentor through her professional program Wellness Business Systems
- Educational tour operator and instructor for Learn, Eat, & Be Well
Across these roles, her focus has remained consistent: supporting learners and practitioners in developing confidence, clarity, and professional integrity.
LEARNING PHILOSOPHY
At Learn, Eat, & Be Well, Bianca combines guided instruction with experiential learning through food preparation, shared meals, field visits, discussion, and reflection. Programs are intentionally small to allow space for dialogue, integration, and individualized attention.
Learning is structured but unhurried, designed to support insight rather than information overload. Participants are encouraged to observe, question, and connect ideas within a real-world context.
“What can I say! I loved the ‘whole’ experience. It was a trip of a lifetime. I felt so alive and well in France. Being with like-minded individuals, sharing good conversation, great food, and the atmosphere…..just breathtaking!”
