Your teacher


Life Plus is a cooking school in Sherman Oaks, inside the Sherman Oaks Galleria (15301 Ventura Blvd). Since 2023 we've taught more than a thousand guests to cook, one hands-on class at a time.
Every class works the same way: you do the cooking yourself, with a Life Plus instructor guiding you through real techniques. Then you sit down and eat what you made. No demos to watch from the back, no watered-down recipes.
What we teach
Six-course sushi, Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese, Filipino and Korean BBQ, fresh handmade pasta and Italian, pastry and baking, and weekend brunch. New seasonal classes join the calendar through the year.
Side by Side: parent-and-kid classes
One grown-up and one kid cook together as a team, each team at its own station, from breakfast diner to dumplings, pasta and donuts. Best for kids 9 and up.
Private classes and team events
Any class can be booked privately for 4 to 30 guests: birthdays, team building, showers and celebrations. We provide everything.
Dietary needs
Tell us when you book. Our chefs adapt recipes for allergies, vegetarian and plant-based diets, and health needs such as diabetes or blood pressure.
Beginners are always welcome. Bring your appetite; we provide the rest.
