People usually sign up to run workshops on the first or second day of the festival. There will be a wide variety, including stuff for beginners. You should be absolutely fine.

What this calls for is a special mix of psychology and extreme violence...

Mac - you missed a great first day...
slacker...
Well that was fantastic!!!
Definitely worth travelling down for!
Excellent to see the handful of other HOPpers there! (Though where was Mr Majestik
??)
Cheers Mark for Crash space and use of the pool / hot tub! Never expected to be skinny-dipping on the first night!
Still can't juggle for sh*t but was definitely inspired by a lot of the stuff on display. (Marco had me at the stuffed frog...)
Roll on NZJC!
