This training  is perfect if you wish to become an instructor …It is geared to teaching you the techniques and tips to equipp you to go on and teach others the magic of Paverpol… ..Because I have an increasing demand for this training and spaces are limited,  if you have no intention of becoming an active instructor  it is better for you to attend other workshops where you can spend  alot more time creating your individual sculptures.

50% deposit  is required with registration .  If a registration is cancelled  I reserve the right to retain $100 if I can not fill the spot in the course…This covers my preparation time for each person
