i think you need to loop through your CP and Repeater and build a array first, and after that echo workshops out of that array.
important for ordering by date is: that you set Return Format to Ymd (you can change this later with date/date_i18n)

/*build and fill: cp-loop and repeater loop*/
if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post(); 
$my_workshop_name = get_field('my_workshop_name');
if( have_rows('dates') ):
    while ( have_rows('dates') ) : the_row();

$my_workshop_date = get_sub_field('date');
$the_ID = get_the_ID();

/*of course you can extend this with additional fields or infos for that workshop that you can use later*/
$array[$my_workshop_date][$the_ID]['date'] = $my_workshop_date;
$array[$my_workshop_date][$the_ID]['name'] = $my_workshop_name;
endwhile;
endif;

endwhile;
endif;

/*output*/

asort($array);

foreach ($my_workshop_date as $key_day => $row_day){
foreach ($row_day as $key_workshop => $row_id){
$workshop_name = $row_id['name'];
$workshop_date = $row_id['date'];
$workshop_date_pretty = date_i18n( 'j. F Y', $workshop_date);
echo $workshop_date_pretty .' : '. $workshop_name;
}
}

hope that help
