Experiential Classes



Our experiential classes give our students the opportunity to learn French through experience: mindfulness classes, cooking workshops, yoga and Pilates in French, and more! Set against the backdrop of our beautiful 6-acre park, brand-new classrooms, and welcoming community spaces, these programs turn language learning into a lived experience, blending movement, exploration, and authentic connection with fellow Francophiles and French speakers of all levels.

Emma Le Dû grew up in Brittany, in the west of France, where half of the restaurants are crêperies. a background in electrical engineering, a Master in Public Administration, and experience running a classroom technology nonprofit operating in rural Latin America, she comes to the Pantry through an unusual path.
