HALF-DAY VIRTUAL WORKSHOP CONDUCTED LIVE!
Join us for a half-day live workshop on Zoom, designed to help you host retreats and events confidently and safely. Get real-time guidance on how to legally protect your participants, craft proper waivers and agreements, and manage event risks for both live and virtual gatherings. We’ll walk you through real-world examples, review key legal essentials, and answer your specific questions live.
The workshop is scheduled for Saturday, April 10, 2027, beginning at 9am Pacific time and will run approximately three hours. If the date or time changes, we’ll give you advanced notice. You’ll also receive access to recordings of the full workshop so you can revisit the material anytime.
What a Live Session Looks Like
As with every Second Saturday Workshop, you'll find … Reliable information … Practical tools … Clear next steps … and a safe container to actually take those steps.
GAIN CONFIDENCE THAT YOU CAN CARE FOR YOUR ATTENDEES WHILE STILL BEING LEGALLY ALIGNED
What actually goes into hosting an event safely?
In this live workshop, we'll walk you step-by-step through the waivers, agreements, and policies that matter most for live and virtual retreats and workshops. You won't be left guessing or scrambling to piece it together on your own. Just clarity, practical protection, and a plan you can trust for every event you host.
How do you set expectations, responsibilities, and boundaries that actually hold?
You'll learn practical methods for defining your role, your participants' responsibilities, and your safety protocols, and how to document all of it clearly. You'll leave with detailed checklists to keep your momentum going, plus real-life examples, so your events run smoothly and your boundaries hold with confidence.
Looking for practical tools and real-world examples, not just theory?
You'll receive easy-to-use checklists built for you, whether you're running things live or virtual. We'll walk through real scenarios together, so you finally understand how contracts, permissions, and boundaries fit together, and with a plan you can actually use.
Wondering how to get real legal guidance without a big-firm price tag?
You can! Our workshop leader, Ian Foster, Esq., has 25+ years' experience in business law and now teaches retreat leaders and small business owners who want to host well. In this workshop, you'll get live instruction, actionable feedback, and practical guidance, all at a price designed for small business budgets.
What if you still have questions?
That's exactly what the live Q&A is for. Every session includes dedicated time for your questions, and Ian welcomes all of them — the detailed ones, the “I’m worried this not a good question” ones, all of it — with patience and clarity. Your questions make the workshop better and add value for everyone, so bring them. This is a space built for asking.
