Nick Lodge Gumpaste Flowers Class???

Has anyone ever taken the 2 day gumpaste class that Nick Lodge puts on??? He's coming to Dallas in April and I'm trying to figure out if I want to spend the $250 for it!?!
I would love the opportunity but just hate spending the money on it! Is it worth it????
I haven't done his course, but I have done a few classes with another gumpaste "master".... I would say that it was worth the extreme cost b/c once you know how to really work with gumpaste, you can make ANY flower - even the ones you didnt cover in the class. Seeing it done and doing it yourself under the supervision of a pro is definately better experience than learing from books.
And now, all I need to make a flower I never attempted before are the cutters and a picture of the flower and they come out perfect.
I was forunate enough to be able to go to his open house at the his school/ shop in Atlanta. He is amazing, he is very interactive with anyone who had questions. Seems to be a brillant mind in cake decorating. Saw some of the amazing things he's made on display. WOW. I am very new to cake decorating and I am hoping to take some of his classes this year after a little more practice. But I figure why not learn from one of the best.

I think I'm going to do it, and there's a group of my cake grads who want to learn gumpaste too. It seems quite reasonable compared to the prices listed for gumpaste classes at two cake shops that teach gumpaste around here.
I'd love to watch Nick in action!!! I'm sure I'll pick up a ton of new tips and tricks, which is what it's all about.
I'm also thinking about doing the Ultimate Gumpaste Flowers course...3 very intense days.

I live north of Dallas and I would love to take the gumpaste class with Nick Lodge. I can't decide if I want to spend the $250. I would also like to take the Patchwork Cutters class, but it's also $250.
