Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

Nice flyer.

But I have a few questions. I know, I should probably go to the uberoz website, but I'm good for a bump.


So are the poi, staff and clubs workshops concurrent?

Are the club workshops juggling or Indian ?


cheers wink
What are crossovers ? Crosses?

Hey Stone!
Nice bump!
Workshop timetable is not set yet, and will depend on numbers and also on what people indicate on their rego as their main interest.... there is room at the venue for 2 concurrent workshops or one really big one at a time... I think we will settle on that after Woodford, when Rob and us can sit down together... (bring on the organic hippie juice...)

Club workshops are a little dependent on a few things and would be swinging (it's not a juggling event really) Crossovers refers to Matt's Wibbling and also Kyle's style of contact / mixed toy play.
ok smile

Very excited,

the simple way is fly. 2 hours. If you book now, $139



It's 1680 kms and so theoretically can be done in 24 hours but you'd be mad to do that!

Realistically It's about 2 days if you drive (preferably on the inland route) with a co-driver... 3 to be comfy ...
