The mantra, "you don't have to be good at it, just do it" couldn't be further from wrong with anything involving weight lifting.
My best workshop I've done was an RKC kettlebell workshop. It covered three movements:

Snatch
Turkish Get Up.

Three hours for three movements. Then the instructor rode my ass at the gym every time he saw me for the next 3 weeks to correct me.
