An
action-packed adventure will take place in the storied halls of the Willard
InterContinental as former CIA Chiefs of Disguise, Tony and Jonna Mendez put
participants of the International Spy Museum’s Espionage 101 - Spy School
Workshop through spy paces during this fun and fantastic introduction to the
intricacies of espionage. 
Wit
and savvy will be required as participants gather intelligence, conduct
surveillance, and peek into the glamorous world of super secret agents in this
rare opportunity to blend real spycraft training and the delicious fantasy world
of international intrigue, perfect martinis, glamorous men and women, and
luxurious sports cars. The class is based on an “advance intelligence”
scenario, which indicates that a certain very elusive, very seductive, and very
secret pair of agents will be visiting Washington on an important mission this
fall. Instructors, Tony and Jonna Mendez will assemble an elite team
(participants) to determine what the agents’ assignment is and how they can be
assisted—or thwarted. Participants will need to blend into the hotel’s swank
scene while shadowing suspects in the famed Peacock Alley and listen in for
suspicious whispers at the Round Robin Bar.
