FreshArts workshop review

Thanks to all the people that took part in the Yo2 Workshop this weekend, I didn't expect such a good turn out! I hope you are all getting the hang of your new 'One' I've learned a new trick with mine already, so keep at it. If you completed the workshop, please get in touch via email yo2sales@gmail.com or facebook http://www.facebook.com/pages/Yo2/144765738939189 to talk about the possibility of starting a regular club/ yo-yo session.  Here's a few pics from the Afternoon workshop.

Fresh Arts yoyo workshop!

 Yo2 Are honoured to announce we will be giving a Yo-yo workshop at the FreshArts festival this Saturday 24th September, held in the square outside The Glasshouse in Port Macquarie centre, things kick off around 11am, and carry on through the day.
The entire festival is a free event, featuring all kinds of arts, drama, dance, music and plenty of fantastic workshops.
You don't even need a yo-yo to attend the Yo2 workshop, we will provide one for you! The are two workshops each lasting one hour, spaces are limited to 5 participants per workshop. Workshops are open to anyone aged 12-25, so look for the Yo-yo stall at the festival, put your name down and get involved. The workshop will be teaching all about yo-yos, how to use them, the different styles, and will focus on learning 1a style. for an idea, here is former world Champion, Andre Boulay with an intro in the styles of contemporary yo-yoing

.

And here is Yo2's own video, an introduction to 1a Yo-yo 
Remember spaces are limited, so get your skates on and see you there! (PS in partnership with Fresharts, we have some very special 1a yo-yos for the workshop, all participants that finish the workshop will get to take the yo-yo home, yours to keep!
