Hand Drumming

< \* \* \* English version below \* \* \* > DE Fürs Wochenende ist gutes Wetter angesagt, also geht es diesmal wieder nach draussen. Albisrieden gehört zu den Quartieren, in denen man noch etwas vom alten dörflichen Zürich spürt: rund um den historischen Kern treffen Fachwerkhäuser, enge Gassen, Brunnen und gewachsene Strukturen aufeinander. Gerade dieser Kontrast macht den Ort spannend fürs Urban Sketching. Treffpunkt: Am Brunnen im Dorfzentrum, direkt beim Ortsmuseum an der Ecke Albisriederstrasse / Triemlistrasse. Bitte bringt euer eigenes Zeichenmaterial und idealerweise einen kleinen Klapphocker mit. Keine Vorkenntnisse nötig. Wir skizzieren rund 2 Stunden, allein oder in kleinen Gruppen, ganz entspannt. Danach treffen wir uns wieder, zeigen unsere Sketches und machen ein Gruppenfoto. Als Leitfaden dienen die Werte der Urban Sketchers: https://urbansketchers.org/de/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich ⸻ EN The forecast for the weekend looks good, so this time we are heading outdoors again. Albisrieden is one of those Zurich districts where you can still sense something of the city’s village past: around the historic centre, timber-framed houses, narrow lanes, fountains and long-established public spaces meet everyday neighbourhood life. That contrast makes it especially appealing for urban sketching. Meeting point: At the fountain in the village centre, right by the local museum (Ortsmuseum) at the corner of Albisriederstrasse / Triemlistrasse. Please bring your own drawing materials and, ideally, a small folding stool. No prior experience required. We sketch for about 2 hours, solo or in small groups, at an easy pace. Afterwards we regroup, share our sketches and take a group photo. As always, we follow the Urban Sketchers values: https://urbansketchers.org/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich

In diesem Workshop erkunden wir auf spielerische und achtsame Weise neue Bewegungsmöglichkeiten. Mit einfachen Improvisationsaufgaben, klaren Impulsen und viel Raum zum Ausprobieren entdecken wir, wie vielfältig Bewegung sein kann. Dabei geht es nicht darum, „schön“ oder „richtig“ zu tanzen, sondern den eigenen Körper auf neue Weise in Bewegung zu erleben. Improvisation kann helfen, den eigenen Bewegungsspielraum zu erweitern, den Körper bewusster wahrzunehmen und neue Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten zu entdecken. Mal ruhig und fein, mal lebendig und überraschend, erforschen wir, was entsteht, wenn wir uns bewegen dürfen, ohne etwas Bestimmtes leisten zu müssen. Was wir gemeinsam erarbeiten: * Mehr Vertrauen ins eigene Bewegen * Ein bewussteres Erleben von Körper, Raum und Bewegung * Freude am Experimentieren und am spontanen Entstehenlassen * Mehr Offenheit für den eigenen körperlichen Ausdruck Ausgleich: Fr. 25 Zeit: 13:00 – 15:00 Bei Fragen schreibe mir gerne ein Mail: info@koerperdialog.ch

Der Decoden Workshop bietet dir die Möglichkeit, in eine verspielte und kreative Welt einzutauchen und deine eigenen Decoden-Charms und Accessoires zu gestalten. Decoden ist eine dekorative Technik, bei der mit einer cremigen Leimmasse, Farben und süßen Charms gearbeitet wird. Dabei entstehen einzigartige Designs, die sowohl kreativ als auch individuell sind. Dieser Workshop eignet sich perfekt für alle, die etwas Neues ausprobieren und mit wenig Aufwand tolle Ergebnisse erzielen möchten. Im Decoden Workshop kannst du verschiedene Gegenstände nach deinem eigenen Stil gestalten. Zur Auswahl Bilderrahmen Etuis Handspiegel & Tischspiegel Schmuckkästchen Haarklammer Du entscheidest selbst, welches Objekt du dekorieren möchtest und wie verspielt, farbenfroh oder minimalistisch dein Design ausfallen soll. Jedes Werk ist ein Unikat und spiegelt deine persönliche Kreativität wider. Pro Gegenstand benötigst du etwa 15 bis 30 Minuten, je nach Detailgrad und Design. Dadurch eignet sich der Workshop sowohl für kurze kreative Pausen als auch für längere Bastelzeiten. Du kannst auch mehrere Objekte nacheinander gestalten, wenn du Lust hast, verschiedene Designs auszuprobieren. Der Preis startet ab 20 CHF pro Gegenstand. Im Preis enthalten sind eine Farbe und 20 Charms. Alle Materialien stehen für dich bereit, sodass du nichts mitbringen musst. Du kannst direkt loslegen und dich ganz auf das kreative Arbeiten konzentrieren. Wenn du zusätzliche Farben oder Charms verwenden möchtest, kannst du diese flexibel ergänzen. Auch Anfänger\*innen sind herzlich willkommen. Du brauchst keinerlei Vorkenntnisse, um am Decoden Workshop teilzunehmen. Ich erkläre dir Schritt für Schritt, wie die Technik funktioniert, wie du den Leim richtig aufträgst und wie du deine Charms platzierst, damit dein Design harmonisch wirkt. Während des gesamten Workshops stehe ich dir mit Tipps und Unterstützung zur Seite. Wichtig zu beachten ist die Trockenzeit: Der verwendete Leim benötigt etwa zwei Stunden, um stabil zu trocknen, und über Nacht, um vollständig auszuhärten. Du hast daher zwei Möglichkeiten: Du kannst dein Werk gerne bei mir lassen und es zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt abholen, sobald es komplett getrocknet ist. Alternativ kannst du dein Objekt vorsichtig mit nach Hause nehmen und dort weiter trocknen lassen.

Manga zeichnen wirkt auf den ersten Blick oft kompliziert und einschüchternd. Die ausdrucksstarken Augen, die besonderen Gesichtszüge und die dynamischen Figuren lassen viele glauben, dass man dafür jahrelange Erfahrung braucht. Doch genau hier setzt dieser Manga-Zeichenworkshop an: Manga zu zeichnen ist viel einfacher, als du denkst, wenn man die richtigen Grundlagen lernt und Schritt für Schritt angeleitet wird. In meinen Manga-Zeichenworkshops lernen Kinder und Jugendliche auf spielerische und verständliche Weise die wichtigsten Techniken des Manga-Zeichnens kennen. Der Kurs ist so aufgebaut, dass er auch ohne Vorkenntnisse gut verständlich ist und von Anfang an Erfolgserlebnisse vermittelt. Ziel ist es, den Teilnehmenden die Angst vor dem Zeichnen zu nehmen und ihre Kreativität zu fördern. Alle benötigten Materialien sind im Kurs inklusive, sodass nichts mitgebracht werden muss. Zeichenpapier, Stifte und weitere Materialien stehen vor Ort zur Verfügung. Ablauf: Aufwärm- und Sketch-Übungen (10–15 Minuten) Zu Beginn lockern wir die Hand mit einfachen Zeichenübungen und schnellen Skizzen. Diese helfen, Sicherheit im Strich zu entwickeln und entspannt ins Zeichnen zu starten. Grundlagen: Manga-Gesichter (ca. 30 Minuten) Du lernst Schritt für Schritt, wie typische Manga-Gesichter aufgebaut sind – von der Grundform über Proportionen bis hin zu Augen, Nase, Mund und Gesichtsausdruck. Gemeinsam eine Manga-Figur zeichnen (45–60 Minuten) Anschliessend setzen wir das Gelernte um und zeichnen gemeinsam eine komplette Manga-Figur. Dabei lernst du, wie Charaktere lebendig wirken und wie kleine Details Persönlichkeit vermitteln.
