We currently offer a variety of group sessions for nutrition and dietetic education, allowing you to explore topics in a discussion environment with other people on the same journey. Sessions run for 60 minutes with 5 to 10 participants.

The cost is kept low, at just $35 per person per session (with the option of booking two back-to-back classes on the same day for $70). All of our sessions are based on the latest evidence-based research and real-world strategies and solutions. They are written and lead by our own accredited practising dietitian, Suzanna Greenwood.

In 2019, we are moving our group sessions off site to the Brisbane Square Library on George St in the CBD. The larger facility will allow for a better, more comfortable service.

The timetable for 2019 is shown below (or download as PDF).

To book, please call our friendly admin team on (07) 3839 1777. Payment is required at time of booking, and refundable up to 48 hours prior to session commencement.
