Good Vibrations Events
Most of our workshops are open to everybody. However, some classes are designated for particular groups. If an event description says "women only" or "men only," anyone who identifies with that gender is welcome to attend. Workshops that are for couples do not require you to be romantic or sexual partners, but you do need to attend as a pair. So if you have a close friend you want to come with, feel free! We strongly recommend reserving your seat in our workshops. Some of our classes fill up and signing up early will make sure you can attend them. Other workshops have smaller attendance and we may cancel an event if only a few people are registered in advance. Early pre-registration is the best way to avoid disappointment. You can click on the link in the workshop description or call us at 415-345-0400 to sign up.
