This year’s VISS is an intimate affair focused on high quality instruction and collaboration between all of the participants. For that reason we are offering a limited number of spaces. Be sure to sign up early!
Full Symposium Pass – Access the 3 day long intensives as well as elective workshops each day! This full participation pass grants you entry into all workshops, series, focus classes, and lectures for the duration of the weekend.
One Day Pass – for those who schedules only allow for them to attend a single day.
Additional Options
VISS 2024 T-shirt ($25). Select your size based on the measurements shown.
Scholarships
If you are excited about VISS but concerned about the financial impact, a limited amount of scholarships are available. You can also donate to the scholarship fund to help others attend. Learn more about scholarships here.
VISS recognizes the financial barrier of finding affordable accommodation in and around downtown Vancouver, and this year is excited to offer ultra-low-budget accommodation options! Please contact us for more information.
Extra Training
If you want to make the most of your trip and train all week, you can sign up for unlimited training at Academie Duello in the week before and/or after VISS. You can see Academie Duello’s weekly schedule here.
