I thought it was a very insightful class. A lot was packed into 2 hours. The class did go over by around 15min and there was question and answer after that. I wish I would have know ahead of time that the session was going to go over the alotted class time. I could have planned accordingly to be able to fully partisapted past the advertised class end time. -
