The day is concentrated and workshop‑style: after a brief orientation, the instructor adapts the session to your stated interests, demonstrating methods and then guiding you through extended hands‑on practice during the two- or four‑hour private lesson. The pace is deliberate — aimed at skill refinement rather than broad introductions — and ends with a review of techniques you practiced.
