**Kawaii Punch Needle Workshop** In this Punch Needle workshop, you'll transform simple threads into unique works of art. Punch Needle is a modern yet relaxing embroidery technique where loops are created in the fabric using a special needle. This results in textured, soft surfaces and impressive patterns. This workshop offers the perfect opportunity to learn Punch Needle or to bring your creative ideas to life – no prior experience necessary. At the beginning of the Punch Needle workshop, you'll receive an introduction to the basics of the technique . I'll explain step by step how the punch needle works, which materials are used, and what you should pay attention to while stitching. You'll learn how to guide the thread correctly, create even loops, and neatly execute your design. The calm, repetitive movement of punch needle is particularly relaxing and perfect for unwinding from everyday life. In the workshop, you have two creative options to choose from. The first option is to select an **existing template** . These designs are especially suitable for beginners and guide you step-by-step through the embroidery process. You can concentrate fully on the technique and learn how to create a punch needle artwork from start to finish. The second option is for those who want to unleash their own creativity. You can **design your own pattern** and then embroider it yourself. Whether simple shapes, patterns, lettering, or a free-form motif – you decide what you want to create. Here, too, you will receive individual guidance and support in planning and executing your design. Throughout the entire Punch Needle workshop, you will receive personal, step-by-step guidance . It's important to me that all participants feel comfortable and can work without pressure. Questions are always welcome, and I'll help you find solutions if something doesn't work right away. The goal is to work with enjoyment and create a result you can be proud of. All materials are included in the workshop . You'll receive the punch needle, fabric, frame, and a selection of threads in various colors. You don't need to bring anything except your creativity and enthusiasm for crafting. At the end of the workshop, you'll take your hand-stitched artwork home – ideal as a decoration or a personal gift. **How long?** **Max 2 hours, come anytime between 14:00 and 20:00. Please message me if you are coming any time after 14:00.** **For whom?** The Punch Needle Workshop is **suitable for everyone** . Both children and adults are welcome. The course is aimed at beginners, but creative people with some experience can also gather new ideas and refine their technique. Punch Needle is easy to learn and offers quick results, which makes the workshop particularly motivating. If you feel like trying something new, unwinding creatively and creating a work of art with your hands, this Punch Needle Workshop is just right for you.

Welcome to the Winterthur Badminton Meetup! We’re an international group created for badminton fans in and around Winterthur. Open to Expats and Swiss folks who want to train and socialise with fellow ‘badmintonists’. Or perhaps you’d like to learn the sport and meet new people? Whether doing it for fun or fitness, the idea is to enjoy and have a great (kickass) midweek. And everyone is welcome to join us for a postgame drink or two! See yah! Important: We ask everyone to respect others who wish to play. That means dropping out if you won’t make it to the game by updating your RSVP. Keep in mind: RSVPs close at 21:00 two days before the event to give others enough time to plan. Anyone on the RSVP list who did not show up at the event is considered a "no-show". No-shows will still have to pay the shared cost of the court and shuttles. We keep track of no-shows and deprioritise them in future games. Please try your best to pay on the same day by Twint or in cash. With Twint, write in the comment the date and your name for reference. Cost will be around 12-20 CHF, depending on the amount of players joining and if we have to rent 1 or 2 courts. Note: If it's your first time joining, please send me a message for more details and to confirm your spot in the game. Otherwise, regular players will be given priority. Cheers, Elias

Feeling tired and unmotivated recently? Boost your energy levels just in time for spring! Learn somatic exercises according to the body psychotherapy method by Alexander Lowen! In a small group, we'll try the somatic exercises, focusing on deepening the breathing and joyful self-expression. While most of the exercises aim to raise your energy levels, sometimes we need to rest to regain motivation, so we will end with some restorative exercises. As children, most of us were full of energy and enthusiasm. As we become adults, the list of neverending obligations and constant overwhelm leave us feeling depleted and emotionally dull. We prefer to lie on the sofa and watch another show rather than plan an exciting hike or even go out with friends. We don’t only feel low on energy – it’s visible to everyone around you. You hardly ever laugh, you close your body from the world, you’re prone to bad moods, and not too keen to have sex. Time to recharge your energy and learn how to stay motivated and in good spirits! One of the main goals of bioenergetic exercises is to regulate emotions and improve well-being. You will finish the workshop by choosing several practices to continue using in daily life for more lasting effects. **Your host:** Anka Grzywacz, Somatic (Bioenergetic) Therapist in Training I discovered Bioenergetic Analysis when interviewing a body-oriented therapist for my radio show about sexuality (I’m a **trained sexologist**). Once I learned more about the approach, I got hooked. I got so hooked that at the age of 40 I decided to go back to school and get trained for **4.5 years** to become a **body-oriented psychotherapist**. I am now in my fourth year of training, having obtained certification as a Bioenergetic Counselor. To ensure the quality of my work I have **regular supervision** with an experienced therapist. On top of that I bring additional, extensive (1.5 years) education and training in **group workshop facilitation** and **life coaching** (1 year postgraduate university course). **Who this workshop is for?** * Participants of all genders welcome. * You can treat this workshop as a self-development tool or as an addition to talk psychotherapy. * You are ready to express your emotions in a small group of people in a safe, confidential setting (all exercises are voluntary). * You can tolerate shouting, stomping, and expressive movements. * If you have a mental health condition, check with your health provider first. You need to feel stable enough to confront more intense emotions. **Contraindications:** * Pregnancy * Epilepsy * History of psychotic states or taking antipsychotic medication * Strong anger management issues or aggressive outbursts (more suitable for individual therapy). * If you have a serious health condition, consult your doctor first (for example, very high blood pressure or other conditions that intense emotions can trigger). **I have been diagnosed with depression. Is this right for me?** It depends. Generally, somatic (bioenergetic) exercises are very useful in the treatment of depression and we use them with our clients in body psychotherapy sessions. People who attend talking therapy may also participate in workshops and engage in somatic exercises to complement the verbal work. This is, however, a short, group workshop. It means the exercises can trigger something deeper in you, or even make you feel worse in the short term. If you are currently undergoing treatment for depression, it’s best to consult with your doctor and/or therapist before signing up for the workshop. You need to feel stabilised – with medication and/or therapy – to participate in a group session during which emotional expression is encouraged. **Practical:** * Location: Cozy studio near Triemli station. * The room has accessibility restrictions, as you need to take a few steps down to enter. * There are no reimbursements. If you get sick and present a doctor's attestation, I can offer a rebooking for a similar workshop within the next 3 months. * The list price of 62 CHF doesn't include system processing fee. At checkout, you will be charged approximately 65 CHF. This is the only way for me to take on the charges on this website. * The number of sold tickets may not reflect the actual number, as this event is cross-promoted. First-come, first-served. If there is an otherbooking you will receive a reimbursement or I will suggest an alternative date. **What the participants of my workshops are saying:** *The workshop made me realize how important it is to be here and now, in mindful contact with my body and accepting myself as I am. I would recommend workshops with Anka to people looking for positive energy and aliveness.* Mart☀️ *I have attended several workshops both on sexology and bioenergetics and each time I was impressed by her professionalism, the wealth of interesting information, and most importantly, the valuable knowledge and practical tools I took away from them.* Małgorzata
