Workshops allow the gaining of both skills and confidence in a short space of time. A yurt building workshop provides an opportunity to learn the techniques of yurt construction. Some participants will need training in basic skills; others who have skills but have not built with these techniques will also find it a helpful learning experience. This workshop will include seminars to discuss the variety of possibilities in yurt design and its role in social design.
