Registration is required* to attend a boot camp/workshop in person, unless otherwise noted in the registration details card. Seating in our workshops is on a first come, first served basis. Space may be limited, and you are advised to register early. In the event the auditorium becomes full, we will open up our overflow room for attendees to view the workshop livestream.
