Hi James I feel you think you are going to be dropped into the deep end, and by some miracle, we are going to show you how to do it there. But its not like that at all. You will start at a level that is 100% safe for you: it may even be on your own, and it will be in a hotel room, not a public toilet. And you will decide how to add a managemable bit of difficulty. There is no target for the weekend; you will progress at your own rate, bit by bit, only doing what you feel you can manage. That is the beauty of graduated exposure. Everyone omes with a range of anxiety, from apprehensive, to major anxiety (e.g. bricking it). But as you have read, we make you feel at ease quickly, and we keep tabs on your anxiety during the weekend, so as to keep you out of your "deep end'. Chers Andrew
