Virtual Paddy Package
Paddy Crean Workshop - From the Ashes Logo

Overview:

 While the Paddy Crean International Workshop: From the Ashes will be conducted in person in Banff, for the first time ever, we’re bringing a portion of the Paddy to those around the world who can’t join us in Canada! 

The Virtual Paddy Package will offer live (and recorded) training with our instructors and staff. Brought to you by the co-producer of the Social Distance Showdown and the leader of Humble Warrior Movement Arts, which hosted hundreds of hours of virtual movement training during the pandemic, this opportunity can bring you into the action with ease from the comfort of your own space.

 FAQ:

If other folks in my household or my community want to take the classes do they have to register separately? 
  • Yes. Anyone who wants to engage with our content must register and pay separately as well as agree to the terms and conditions. This is an honor system request. 
How do I download Zoom? 
I’ve never used Zoom, what do I need to know?
What do I need for class?  
  • Each class will have different needs and for some you may need to locate some items within your space to use. Each class description will detail what they recommend having at the ready. We also recommend having water close at hand, and an open mind. 
Can I choose my classes?
  • ​These packages will have set classes so you won’t have to worry about signing up for anything after you purchase the package. ​A wide variety of subjects will be explored, all taught by folks with varying specialties. 
​ Do I need my own theatrical weapons? 
  • No! You may see some teachers utilize stage combat weapons while teaching their classes, however, they will offer an alternative prop you find in your home (kitchen spoon instead of a sword for example). If you're unsure of what you'll need for any given class, check the description. But if you have a theatrical weapon that you’d like to use, and the space to use it, you’re welcome to do so!
Will I be shown in the recording?
  • The recording of Zoom meetings features only the speaker of the class. This will often be the teacher. If you are muted, your video won't be part of the recording that is put on the student page. If you unmute yourself and speak, then you will likely have anything you say aloud and the video of you saying it included in the recording. 
How should I ask questions in class?
  • The best way to ask questions is to use the chat function in the Zoom meeting. Or you can raise your virtual hand and the classroom monitor will call on you. 
    • *If you unmute yourself and ask, you may be featured in the recording of the class later posted online. 
What happens if I hurt myself or break something?
  • With the instructor unable to be present in your physical space and see it fully, you assume all liability for yourself, your space, the objects and other persons or animals within it. These classes will be taught with safety in mind, as all movement training is, however, we cannot see into your space and accommodate for all circumstances in your world. We claim no responsibility for any injury or damaged property. For further details, please refer to the liability waiver you signed in advance of the workshop. We recommend you take all possible precautions in preparing your space for engagement with the classwork.
  • If you get seriously injured please use your discretion in calling emergency and seeking medical attention. Please inform the classroom monitor and the workshop coordinators. 
What happens if my internet cuts our or my technology kicks me out of class? 
  • Simply restart/relaunch your Zoom. We will have a monitor keeping an eye on the wait room and they will let you back in. 
​Do you have tech support? 
  • We will be using Zoom. If you have trouble downloading it or using it on your device, contact them directly. We will be on hand during the workshop to offer advice and potentially assist you in troubleshooting your issue, but cannot guarantee assistance for your issue. We recommend you ensure you're able to log into your zoom account at least a day before the workshop. We are not able to offer substantial or in-depth tech support across technological issues that may arise through this medium on your personal device, but will do our best to help where we can.
What is the refund policy? 
  • All tuition payments are non-refundable.
