Workshops

Richard Waters

My yurt building workshops are a great way to gain the knowledge and experience to make your own. Not only will you learn some new practical skills, but also have a good time too.
The workshop is hands-on and you will be taken through every stage of making a camping yurt. You will go away with enough knowledge and a free set of instructions on how to make your own.

Shaping a Roof Pole

2018 Workshops – Pacific Northwest

No workshops are planned as yet for 2018 I am taking names for a workshop in Summer Lake, Oregon – early April most likely. It will be a small class and numbers will be limited. If you need accommodation, I can set you up with a yurt at the RV park across the road. Contact me for more info.
If you do not find one in your area and would like to be put on a waiting list, please contact me and I will let you when a workshop is more local to you. For the workshop program, see the Workshop Details page.
