I love teaching and traveling. I have enjoyed meeting wonderful people all over the US and beyond. I am looking forward to even more fun in the coming years. I am most certainly back on the road. Traveling is sometimes a bit tricky but I love it! All dates are subject to change.
I am also prepared for the virtual realm of Zoom classes so please contact me to ask about those… I can travel anywhere in the world at no added cost 🙂 Please see my classes and lectures page for choices and standard fees (look all the way down to the bottom of the page).
I am now booking into 2027. Dates are added to my calendar when a booking is confirmed in writing. Please bear in mind, I do have several events and shows pencilled in my calendar that won’t show up here until the organizers make their faculty lists public.
Remember, most Zoom workshops are open to anyone, wherever you are. Please contact the sponsoring organization for registration details.
