Our Tide held the very first student workshop in 2021and has held at least one workshop every year since. Most of these have been held at Clevedon Sailing Club but we have also held workshops in both Clevedon School and Nailsea School.\u00a0
Along the way we have experimented with the format, from five half-days in one week, through separate sessions over several weeks to our current, ever-popular, workshop-in-a-day.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
