All of our vegan courses are based on the same "rules of the vegan road" that we've taught since we started VeganCoach.com back in February of 2007.
We'll show you how to design a vegan lifestyle that's highly personalized, so everything is completely customized whether planning a menu, stocking your kitchen, choosing ingredients to cook with, creating your own recipes or exploring effective weight loss.
We want to help you break through the boundaries you've likely grown up with, where everything about food and cooking is so strict including grocery shopping, cooking, even how you stock and manage your kitchen! Because my friend, there IS an easier way!

"Made my first two loaves yesterday! I just watched the third installment in the series and I can't wait to make more! I really don't know why it's so much fun. Maybe it was being up to my forearms mixing while my son added the seasonings I called for. Then seeing the fruits of your labor.

It's important to learn the skills to mastering freestyle cooking. Not only does this save you time (for example, painstakingly measuring out the exact ingredients a recipe calls for) but it saves you money too! How? Because you'll choose ingredients that are in season and at their freshest while priced less than ingredients out of season.
PLUS, when you cook without recipes you use the nutritious food you have on hand instead of tossing old and wilted veggies into the garbage -- sheesh, the money you'll save on this alone is likely substantial!

"Do you want to know something that I feel is unusual in taking this class? Well, I EXPECTED to have to go out and purchase different ingredients to make all the things you would have us make, right? Never one time have I purchased ANYTHING for this class! NOT.ONE.THING! So, I guess that means that anyone can benefit from these classes because it truly is teaching us to use what we have on hand already! In fact, I have only been shopping 3 times since these started and only bought staples! Way less than usual! I thank you for this! Glen thanks you for this! Recipe-free! XO"
-- Shirley M., Nampa, Idaho
"This is exactly the approach I best relate to. I've purchased several of the Vegan Coach programs, all of which are helpful, inspiring and informative. The highlights of those courses, for me, are the video segments where you can see what exactly is happening in the kitchen and how a meal goes together. I also like seeing the amounts of flavoring ingredients that are used in a dish - not to copy them necessarily, but to get a sense of how you approach it."
-- Ashley G., Erie, Pennsylvania

Thanks so much for checking out our vegan courses. Be sure to check back occasionally as we have more courses planned to help you be the healthiest and happiest vegan you can be.
xo!
p.s. Remember, if you have any questions about any of our eCourses please let us know via our Contact form.
p.p.s. Hi guys! I received this question today about our online cooking classes and thought I'd share:
Q: I am considering taking one of your courses and wondered if it is adaptable to vegetarian (with eggs/dairy)?
A: All of our courses are perfect for any level of vegan, vegetarian, or non-vegan. We simply teach you the vegan end of things and you can take it as far as you want to.
For instance, let's take Plan It With Sass! or Get Down With Sass! By the end of the course you have learned all you need to know to eat a well-balanced vegan diet so you're covered if you want to release the animal products, but you certainly don't have to. It's not a requirement.
As a point of fact, you don't have to be vegan to hang with us at all. No judgments or guilt trips here. We'll offer support to you wherever you're at on the vegan to non-vegan scale. We're cool like that. :)
Please let me know if you have any further questions about any specific course in the Facebook comments area below. Thank you!
"You are quality all over! Your courses are super quality! You really rise above the norm. So glad I found you!"

"Love the Vegan Coach, and Sassy and Jeff are amazing at providing the necessary information and guidance to help you on your way to eating healthier and making the switch to a vegan lifestyle. Great courses!"
-- Andrea V., Carlisle, Ontario, Canada
"I just wanted to say thank you. Your website, eBooks, and tutorials have made a huge impact in my life. Late last year I chose to become vegan, but was lost in how to prepare meals and maintain proper nutrition levels. I randomly stumbled upon your website and it has become one of my favorites. I appreciate all that you and your husband have done in educating and helping vegans."
-- Valerie Johnson, Spring Lake, Michigan
"Prior to working with the Vegan Coach, I was an unhealthy, overweight, junk-food vegan that had no clue and had no idea where to start with what is truly a HEALTHY diet. I rarely cooked, and always the same boring things.
"Since getting plugged into Vegan Coach's classes, I now eat, cook and prepare delicious food with out-of-this-world flavor that my non-veg friends and family (and even my non-vegan husband Tyler) actually request!
"It has all been simple and easy to understand. I now know what it means to eat HEALTHY and have all tools I need, and the peace of mind that goes with it. If you have not started into their training and services, do it. Now! You and your health cannot afford not to."
