We'll start each day with worship and then move on to group classes, breakout sessions and practice sessions. Every evening we'll have a more time to worship together, jam, share ideas and discover other styles at our Live Play Worship, playing with two or more guitars, bass and drums. It's a real “Hands on” experience working with a hot rhythm section.
