Special offer for beginners: beginners-morning*

To get more out of the beginner groups, we offer participants an extra preparation morning for free: During this morning, participants will receive their rental instrument. Furthermore, participants will receive an explanation of the instrument, initial instructions and homework with which they can work at home prior to the weekend course. This morning is from 10:30 to 12:30 and takes place at the same location as the workshop day.

* With the exception of the extra beginner groups for hurdy-gurdy. The extra instruments that we borrow from others for these workshop groups will not be delivered until the Course Day. Unfortunately, it is logistically impossible to get the instruments to the workshop location any earlier.
