Drawing manga often seems complicated and intimidating at first glance. The expressive eyes, distinctive features, and dynamic characters lead many to believe that years of experience are required. But this manga drawing workshop addresses precisely that: drawing manga is **much easier than you think** when you learn the right basics and are guided step by step. In my manga drawing workshops, children and teenagers learn the most important manga drawing techniques in a playful and easy-to-understand way. The course is structured so that it is easy to understand even without prior knowledge and provides a sense of accomplishment from the very beginning. The goal is to help participants overcome their fear of drawing and to foster their creativity. Process: 1. Fundamental warm-up and sketch exercises (10-15 min) 2. Basics: Manga Face (30 min) 3. Drawing a manga character together (45-60 min) All necessary **materials are included in the course** , so you don't need to bring anything. Drawing paper, pencils, and other materials are available on site. **Who is it for?** This manga drawing course is specifically designed for **beginners aged 7 to 17.** It's suitable for anyone who likes manga, enjoys drawing, or simply wants to try something new. Patience, a love of drawing, and curiosity are the only requirements. At the end of the workshop, participants will not only take home their drawings but also new skills and greater confidence in their creative expression.

Welcome cold lovers! We have been practising cold water plunges for over 4 years. We believe in the benefits of cold water exposure. The feeling you get after the swim is magnificent, it makes you feel alive. We have started this group to safely experience the cold water together. We motivate each other, do active warmup exercises, and also share our life stories with a warm coffee/tea afterwards. The event is every Sunday at 11:30, we meet at the Mythenquai Badi entrance no matter the weather. Take along: a large towel, comfortable bathing suit, flip-flops, and warm clothes (hat, gloves, etc). If you’re planning swimming out take along a bright swim buoy. The event is Free. IMPORTANT: Every participant takes responsibility for themselves when attending this event. Before attempting cold water exposure, individuals with health conditions (e.g., heart problems or hypertension) should seek advice from a healthcare professional. Safely acclimating the body to cold temperatures requires preparation and gradual exposure.
