WE'RE GOING BACK..........
We started our 21st Season off in fine fashion with our “On the Road” workshop on Sanibel Island, Florida. This was a new experience as it was the first time we had conducted one of our away workshops in Florida. Sanibel is very different from any preconceived idea of what Florida is like, in fact, it reminded us more of an island vibe......think Hawaii or Jamaica. It is a wonderful location and with 65% of the island being a land reserve it has a very peaceful feeling to it.
The island is just a causeway bridge away from mainland Florida and within 45 minutes of the Fort Meyers Airport....yet it felt like you had really stepped far away from the hustle and bustle of a tourist area. We found some interesting restrictions a part of the Sanibel lifestyle and although restrictions are usually not something we rally for....we were down with these....No chain stores, No drive through fast food restaurants. No stoplights and
lighting restrictions at night. There were no restrictions to how long and beautiful the beach was or your opportunites to enjoy this island paradise.
Now as for our workshop location, the fabulous Sundial Beach Resort and Spa...it surpassed all of our high standards and anticipations. The resort is made up of several four-story building (oh yeah, that is another restriction...no buildings over four story’s) and they are nicely arranged within the resort's property. The resort is bordered on it's west by a mile-long strip of Gulf of Mexico beach. The beach is continuous on that side of the island for miles and you can go as far as you like. The Sanibel beaches are noted for their shells and it is not an exaggeration...so many and so many different ones are strewn across the sand. it really is a sight of beauty and uniqueness.
Back to the Sundial…The classroom provided a nice and quiet space for Jorma's Songwriting workshop. Our three meals a day were enjoyed in a reserved setting just for us and the food was top shelf. The service and hospitality was friendly, nice and well served by the entire Sundial staff. This is a big priority for the Ranch and we were
happy with their efforts.
We had a great group of students and a great group of student guests. The price for the workshop included a room for two and many of our people brought company. Guests had plenty to do during class time as the resort had multiple pools, a great exercise room, bicycles at no extra charge, daily activities if you wanted and once again, that beautiful beach and the expansive Gulf of Mexico. A beach walk would be all you would need to make your day.
Of course, none of this would matter if we didn't have Jorma there giving it his all!Three workshops a day in an intimate setting...Jorma in a circle with his 12 students.
While much of the workshop was in a small class setting...Jorma also availed himself for one on ones with students and answered questions that came up during the workshop on all aspects of music, history and culture. Jorma really enjoys teaching Songwriting and he is such a great teacher....teaching with passion and patience. Most, if not all of those attending, were overwhelmed with his teaching generosity.
A big up to those students at this Songwriting Workshop...they came prepared to work and Jorma really gave them a lot to work on. Aside from the information and learning discussions that took place during class times, Jorma also assigned “homework” and not one student disappointed the teacher by their efforts.
A good time was had by all. We so enjoyed it we have made a decision to go back to The Sundial for our 2019 “On the Road” workshop. We are presently working with the fine staff at the resort to contract two weeks for next year. Stay tuned for dates and information on what classes will be offered. It's a definite that Songwriting will once again be the subject for one of the week's workshops.
Several of the students attending this year's workshop on Sanibel have told us they'd be back if we came back and the reviews of the class, location and vibe were all super positive. We'll be going back and we hope you will consider joining us for an experience of a lifetime next year at The Fur Peace Ranch "On the Road" in Sanibel.
