Registration will open starting Wednesday, September 1st at 8:00 PM.
In an effort to reduce stress and increase fairness, if any workshop fills within the first 12 hours, spots will be given by random draw but priority will be given to current students of Perry, Jess, Stef, Soshana, and Melanie. If it does not fill in the first 12 hours, spots will be first come first serve.
All workshops have 8 working spots. The registration links will be on our events page. We will be putting them up one by one after 8pm on Sep 1, so if you do not see what you are looking for right away, just hit refresh.
Registering does not guarantee you a spot. There will be more sign ups than spots so that we are able to create waitlists. We will email you to confirm spots. If, after registration opens, you do not see anything available, it means that the workshop and the waitlist are full.
Cost is $135 per workshop.
