You need to request you workshops/index page with address query parameter example.com/workshops/index?address=some address. Yii will automaticaly call your action and pass query params into it.

EDIT

If you wish to use pretty url, you must specify urlManager rules for it. E.g.

rules => [
    'workshops/<address>' => 'workshops/index',
],

Also if you wish your page open when addess parameter not specified you can define rules like this:

[
    'pattern' => 'workshops/<address>',
    'route' => 'workshops/index',
    'defaults' => ['address' => ''],
]
