A lot of the workshop was (/is) very much like a lecture or presentation: not much audience participation. But the concepts don't lend themselves to the standard "practice" method of teaching dance.
The first part I think could almost be taught before the workshop by giving the participants the notes to read a week or so beforehand. This would enable you to skim over this bit, and giving more time to the "dancing" bit and less to the "listening": Listening can be done without a partner, dancing {MJ} is a bit more tricky on your own.

- just some ideas.
