So, I realize this thread died a while back, but I think I have something useful to add to this debate about bootcamps. Bootcamps can be great, and if you have the cash to afford it I would even say they can be a great personal investment. However! There are a lot of sticking points that a bootcamp is ill-suited to address. The biggest that you are likely to run into, IMO, is that while on the bootcamp with an instructor there pushing you, you will approach with less anxiety, sets will open easier, and you will be able to escalate with less anxiety. So basically, everything can become much smoother than it will be when the bootcamp ends. This isn't always true, but I have experienced this and I have heard from a few others who have had the exact same issue and it seems to be pretty much independent of which bootcamp/workshop you choose.

When the instructor pushes you, you don't have to push yourself. And when it is over, you will only have yourself to do the pushing. The other big part is that you come to the bars/clubs with more social proof than you may normally roll up with. For instance, lets say you are with an instructor and a couple other students. Your instructor will probably do some demo sets right? And, being an instructor, he is going to do them well. Great, so here is the picture I see from a girl's perspective: This dude rolls up to the club with three friends, they all look alright, but one of them is really attractive. He seems to be one of the coolest guys at the club and is really good friends with him. So, yeah, now she kind of wonders who your instructor is and as a result is a bit warmer to you as well. Someone correct me if my thinking is wrong here, but it kinda makes sense to me. As a result, things might open a little easier.

So, basically: bootcamps are an amazing experience and good investment in general. They will absolutely open your mind to what is really possible and provide a great learning experience that can improve your game. However, they will not help much/at all with certain areas, and they cost a hell of a lot of money.
