"The workshop will be held in Spanish"

Don't you think that may limit participation by your target audience?

Rolly,

Thanks for your reply. The woman hosting the workshop is a Spanish expat and although she speaks five languages, she wanted to try to get people that were comfortable with Spanish and not exclude non-English speakers. She has since decided that the mix of the participants will determine the main language used which will probably be English.

Well, I think someone who is holding a seminar for expats living in Mexico and is holding the seminar in Spanish, but might do it in other languages, tells me that I need to avoid that seminar. Who does she think the majority of expats are who are living in Mexico, Peruvians? I could change my mind if the donuts are Krispy Kremes but I'll be history as soon as the donuts are gone.
