The school was founded in the middle of the 15th century by Iizasa Chōisai Ienao at the Katori Shrine (Katori jingū) and has become the origin of numerous other martial arts schools over the course of its almost 600-year history. The training consists of the continuous repetition of fixed sequences of movements (kata) and includes the use of classic Japanese weapons such as the sword (iai-jutsu, battō-jutsu, ken-jutsu, ryōtō-jutsu, kodachi-jutsu), the long staff (bō-jutsu), the lance (naginata-jutsu) and the spear (sō-jutsu), as well as unarmed disciplines, tactics and spiritual aspects. **The Katori Berlin dojo** is the only official shibu of Otake Nobutoshi-shihan’s dojo Shinbukan in Germany and fully dedicated to the transmission and study of one martial tradition: Tenshinshō-den Katori Shintō-ryū. Through these efforts we aim to contribute to the cultural preservation of this martial tradition. The dojo has one officially appointed shidosha. **Our sensei**: Sebastian Graetz has been active in martial arts since 1997. After almost 15 years of taekwondo in Berlin, he started with Katori Shintō-ryū in Asia in 2014.

In 2023, he received his Menkyo license and permission to set up a training group in Berlin the following year.

Learn drawing from scratch! **…an innovative and holistic method combining body, mind, hand, and pencil.** Have you ever been frustrated because you don’t know how to draw? This course is for you! In just 9 sessions, we will cover the basics – preparing you to confidently grow your drawing practice. 08.12.25 **Shapes & Shades** 15.12.25 **Perspective 1** 22.12.25 *Online Option* **Perspective 2** 29.12.25 *Online Option* **Still Lives** 05.01.26 **Animals** 12.01.26 **Textures** 19.01.26 **Humans** 26.01.26 **Plants** 02.02.26 **Landscapes and Cityscapes** Course fee: €190,- **Sign up now via email to mail@kunstraum-heartspace.de** This is a 9-weeks course with weekly meetings! **More information?** Aber gerne 😌 Continue reading if you want to learn more: This weekly drawing course is designed **for beginners** and **for everyone who is looking for a systematic refreshment** of their skills. We take a unique and holistic approach to developping your drawing skills, taking into consideration the interconnectedness of body, mind, and soul. This class is also suitable as an after-work activity to clear your mind and body! **Why draw?** I like to consider drawing the skeleton or grammar of visual art. It is a precise way to decipher what we see: Drawing asks us to really understand the logic of what we see, to develop a calm hand, a precise gaze, and a logical understanding of shapes and shades. **Sequence of each session:** 1. We will start by a full-body warm-up exercise... 2. ...followed by a concentration meditation where we practice the skill of guiding our hand to do what our minds want. 3. We then come to the main part of the lesson: Practicing the depiction of particular objects, beings, and settings, while diving into different techniques of applying pencil to paper (*hatching, lines, smudging, creating surfaces*). Everything we see can be drawn using different approaches. I will teach you all of them, so you can understand which approach fits your individuality best (*grid, eye measurement and angles, measuring with hand and pencil, becoming what you see, drawing as writing*). 4. We will close by sharing our learnings (debrief). **What to bring:** 🤸‍♀️ Clothes that allow you to move freely (don't shy away from showing up in sports gear!) 📒 Highly recommended: Bring either an A4 sketchbook, or an A4 sketchpad plus A4 folder to store your drawings in. ✍️ A pencil! Can't wait to see you there! Your drawing instructor, Alice
