Attending the Bangkok workshop with Vineet , Rohit and Rammy – three very different mentors – was an incredible experience! Each mentor brought a unique perspective and expertise to the table, allowing me to see their different techniques and perspectives and humour! Overall, the workshop was a very enriching experience and a huge amount fun due to the amazing participants.
