Both of the responses from Wayne and Peds8045 are exploring legimate points IMHO. Wayne's concerns arise from the fact that someone promoting/organising training is taking on liability through what he is trying to organise and more particularly, the techniques he's trying to teach. He's also charging a fee for it. He could therefore be open to a claim if someone is injured as a result of the methods being shown. That's why schools take out insurance cover and why insurers ask for risk assessments, method statements etc.
The scenario described by Peds8045 is one we're very familiar with and while landowner's PL cover may be in place, the informal gathering has not offered training in return for a fee so the "organiser" has no need to cover such risks. Where the Bushmoots sit between these two extremes is for someone else to decide....
I would have thought that provided your siteowner has PL cover you would have scope for people to get together.......but you would need to be careful how you defined the purpose concerning training.
