"I just wanted to say a big thank you for the 2 day workshop last week. I learnt a lot and great to have someone so practical in their approach rather than you have to do it a certain way. I still consider myself a beginner but really appreciated you ensuring I got any questions answered. I’m sure I’ll see you for a 1 to 1 in 2026." Gill, November '25, 2 Day Oval Basket Workshop.
