I'm an amateur landscape and wildlife photographer, I have a decent understanding of composition and photographic method (more on landscape than wildlife) but I'm not an expert. I want to go on a photography workshop, however, since I'm not a professional or an expert, I'm worried I'll either be a distraction for the instructors or be overwhelmed by how much I need to learn.
What should my experience level be before going on a photography workshop?

The specific workshop should indicate. I'd actually be more worried about the other end of the problem — a lot of them are targeted at people learning how to really operate their camera outside of automatic mode, and how to get correct exposure (either with manual mode or better understanding metering and EV compensation).
A class marked "intermediate" should hopefully be beyond that, but there aren't standardized rules. You really should check with the instructor or organizer of the workshop you are interested in before deciding.

Ask the tutor or organisation in question - there are workshops for virtually every level of expertise (more on the very low end than on the upper tiers, however).
And do not talk yourself down: Photography does contain an artistic and a technical stream - some people are good at both of them, some can compose extremely well but do not understand technicalities all too well, some can tell you the whole exposure table by heart and still make not-so-good photos. You will become better in both topics with increasing routine.
You can find some incredible images in the internet and at least to me, some are "intimidating" in the sense that I feel like I could never accomplish them. But it is all about expectations, and to become better in photography, in my personal opinion, it is necessary and good to both criticise and like your own photos.

Oh, and by the way: Looking at your photos and assuming that they are not random good hits, I would look only at the most advanced workshops. Your photos are fairly good IMHO!
