The class is actually through Cozumel chefs - they will send you instructions to Josefina's home in both English & Spanish. It's a short cab rid- I think we paid $10 to get there and $8 to come home. BTW bot cab drivers could not stop saying nice things about her. Josefina is well know and respected in her community.

Yes, we were on a Royal Caribbean sailing. I believe the class was from 11 am until about 3 pm.

Josephina conducted both of the cooking classes we attended. She did have 2 ladies that helped prepare the food, cook, and clean-up, but they were supervised by Josephina. They essentially allowed Josephina to spend her time with us instead of having to watch the food as it cooked, etc. She was with us throughout the class and the class is held in her home. I should mention that we also helped prepare and cook our own food. Josephina would demonstrate what to do and then we would follow her lead. She gave us a choice of foods to prepare and we did not consider anything to be too spicy. She is very accommodating and I believe she would accommodate any of your preferences. She asked everyone in our class our “spicy” preferences. I believe the Emily you are referencing is the lady in the US that handles the online reservations for Josephina but I might be wrong. You can certainly mention your desire for non spicy food when you make the reservation but I believe Josephina will accommodate your needs once you are there. We considered her class a highlight of both our trips.
