the lockdown workshops


Snake is working on improving the Lockdown Workshops that came out weekly when the UK March lockdown began back in 2020. Snakademy, an online learning system is coming soon. Please email us here if you'd like more information and we'll let you know as soon as we have a release date. They will be subscription based but our aim is to keep them affordable so that they are accessible to all.
