Gifted Children

Weg vom Bildschirm und von vorgegebenen Lösungen – hinein in die unbegrenzte Kreativität der realen Welt! In diesem Kurs lernen die Kinder auch auf spielerische Weise, ihre Umwelt wahrzunehmen, zu schätzen und darzustellen. Ausserdem tasten sie sich an ihre eigenen Vorlieben und Begabungen heran und erleben die Begeisterung, eigenhändig Kunstwerke zu erschaffen. Unter professioneller Beratung und individueller Betreuung wird in kleinen Gruppen (ausser in den Schulferien) gearbeitet. **Einstieg und Probeunterricht:** ist jederzeit möglich. **Auskunft und Anmeldung:** marianas@gmx.ch \* 078 628 78 24 \* www.marianas.ch **Dienstags in Zürich**, GBMZ Sieglungslokal an der Hohlstrasse 197, von 17:00 bis 19:00 Uhr **Freitags in Illnau:** von 13:15 bis 15:15 Uhr und von 15:30 bis 17:30Uhr und **samstags in Illnau:** von 10:00 bis 12:00 Uhr **Kurskosten** (inkl.

*English description below* Come un bookclub ma per i podcast. Ogni mese ci ritroviamo per parlare di un podcast che abbiamo ascoltato e scambiarci pareri, opinioni e consigli su nuovi e possibili ascolti. Questo mese ascoltiamo ***Mamera - La storia nascosta degli Jenish*,** un podcast di Taty Rossi, prodotto dall'Associazione REC. Puoi ascoltarlo su **[Spreaker](https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mamera--6745328 "https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mamera--6745328"), [Apple Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ch/podcast/mamera/id1844590898 "https://podcasts.apple.com/ch/podcast/mamera/id1844590898") e [Radio Gwen](https://www.radiogwen.ch/trans/mamera.php "https://www.radiogwen.ch/trans/mamera.php")** Puoi usare questo schema per annotare le tue riflessioni e condividerle poi con il resto del gruppo [https://bit.ly/fogliotqe_PAZ](https://bit.ly/fogliotqe_PAZ "https://bit.ly/fogliotqe_PAZ") *(Per scaricarlo è necessario avere un account Google)* Questo appuntamento è gentilmente ospitato dal [Selbstlernzentrum di Hönggerberg](https://www.sprachenzentrum.uzh.ch/de/Autonomes-Lernen/Selbstlernzentrum-H%C3%B6nggerberg.html "https://www.sprachenzentrum.uzh.ch/de/Autonomes-Lernen/Selbstlernzentrum-H%C3%B6nggerberg.html"), un centro nato dalla collaborazione tra il Servizio linguistico dell’Università di Zurigo, quello del Politecnico federale di Zurigo, la Biblioteca e il Rettorato dell’ETH Zürich. **Mamera - La storia nascosta degli Jenish** *Dal sito [rec.swiss/mamera](https://rec.swiss/mamera/ "https://rec.swiss/mamera/")* Tra il 1926 e il 1973, il programma “Kinder der Landstrasse”, promosso dalla Fondazione Pro Juventute e sostenuto dalla Confederazione, tolse con la forza centinaia di bambini jenisch alle loro famiglie. Dietro questa operazione si celava un progetto eugenetico, volto a cancellare l’identità di un intero gruppo nomade. Una serie podcast in sette episodi che riporta alla luce questa drammatica storia di discriminazione attraverso testimonianze, documenti e riflessioni, mettendo a fuoco una ferita collettiva e un passato che interpella il presente. **Cosa è P.A.Z. Podcast Ascolti Zurigo?** Il miglior modo per conoscere un podcast è il passaparola. Solitamente questo viaggia attraverso i social media. P.A.Z., acrononimo che sta per Podcast Ascolti Zurigo nasce per scoprire cose nuove da ascoltare e avere la possibilità di parlarne con altri, in persona. Come un bookclub, ma per i podcast. ***English Version*** Each month, we gather to discuss a podcast we've listened to, sharing thoughts, opinions, and recommendations for future listens. This month we are listening to *Mamera – The Hidden History of the Jenish*, a podcast by Taty Rossi, an "Associazione REC" production. You can listen to it on **[Spreaker](https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mamera--6745328 "https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mamera--6745328"), [Apple Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ch/podcast/mamera/id1844590898 "https://podcasts.apple.com/ch/podcast/mamera/id1844590898") e [Radio Gwen](https://www.radiogwen.ch/trans/mamera.php "https://www.radiogwen.ch/trans/mamera.php")** This event is kindly hosted by the [Selbstlernzentrum at Hönggerberg](https://www.sprachenzentrum.uzh.ch/de/Autonomes-Lernen/Selbstlernzentrum-H%C3%B6nggerberg.html "https://www.sprachenzentrum.uzh.ch/de/Autonomes-Lernen/Selbstlernzentrum-H%C3%B6nggerberg.html"), a center established through the collaboration between the Language Center of the University of Zurich, the Language Center of ETH Zurich, as well as the ETH Zurich Library and Rectorate. **Mamera – The Hidden History of the Jenish** From *[rec.swiss/mamera](https://rec.swiss/mamera/ "https://rec.swiss/mamera/")* Between 1926 and 1973, the “Kinder der Landstrasse” program—initiated by the Pro Juventute Foundation and supported by the Swiss Confederation—forcibly removed hundreds of Jenish children from their families. Behind this operation lay a eugenic agenda aimed at erasing the identity of an entire nomadic community. This seven-part podcast series brings this dramatic history of discrimination back to light through testimonies, archival documents, and critical reflection, shedding light on a collective wound and a past that still resonates today. **What's P.A.Z.?** The best way to discover a podcast is through word of mouth, usually traveling through social media. P.A.Z., an acronym for Podcast Ascolti Zurigo, was born to uncover new things to listen to and the chance to discuss them with others in person. Like a book club, but for podcasts. **Is there an entry fee?** The event is free (it would be nice to know how many of us are coming, so if you can, RSVP for free here). Everyone is free to order something at the bar at their own expense. **Do I need to have listened to the entire podcast?** No, you can come even if you haven't heard the entire podcast (but it's better if you have). **Is the podcast to listen to always in Italian?** Yes, currently, P.A.Z. aims to focus on Italian-language podcasts, and anyone who speaks Italian is welcome. **I like it but I can't be there, what can I do?** Feel free to contact me via meetup or, join to our [Whatsapp Group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DBWV6im8RDe98hrP5ehH60), and I will be happy to keep you updated on upcoming events.

In diesem **5-wöchigen Live-Programm** lernst du, deinen inneren Zustand bewusst zu regulieren, statt dauerhaft gegen dich selbst zu arbeiten. Die meisten Menschen versuchen ihre Leistung über Mindset zu verbessern. Doch unter Druck entscheidet nicht nur dein Denken, sondern vor allem dein Zustand. Genau das beobachte ich immer wieder: * Der Kopf läuft ständig weiter * Abschalten fällt schwer * Innere Unruhe trotz Erfolg * Verantwortung fühlt sich dauerhaft schwer an * Energietiefs & Überforderung * Funktionieren nach außen — aber innerlich erschöpft sein Das ist **kein Entspannungsprogramm**. Es geht darum, unter Druck klar, präsent und leistungsfähig zu bleiben. **Was du lernst** * Wie dein Nervensystem deine Performance beeinflusst * Praktische Tools zur Regulation von Stress & Überaktivierung * Breathwork für Fokus, Regeneration & mentale Klarheit * Mental Performance Strategien aus dem Spitzensport * Wie nachhaltige High Performance möglich wird — ohne dich selbst zu verlieren [Mehr Infos hier](https://www.patrickaltendorfer-coaching.ch/kopie-von-master-your-state-5-week-1) (Ausschreibung ist auf EN - Durchführung ist auf DE) **Ablauf** * 5 Wochen Live Online-Training * 1 Session pro Woche via Zoom, Mittwochs. Die Sessions werden aufgezeichnet falls du mal nicht dabei sein kannst * Zusätzliche Audio- & Videoübungen zwischen den Sessions Wenn du spürst, dass reines positives Denken oder Disziplin alleine nicht mehr reichen, könnte dieses Programm genau das Richtige für dich sein. [Mehr Infos hier](https://www.patrickaltendorfer-coaching.ch/kopie-von-master-your-state-5-week-1) Die Ausschreibung ist auf Englisch. Die Durchführung selber ist auf Deutsch.

In der Abgusssammlung der Universität Zürich warten griechische und römische Skulpturen aus der Antike darauf, von dir entdeckt und gezeichnet zu werden. Ich unterstütze dich dabei, Proportionen und menschliche Anatomie wahrzunehmen, Charaktere und Posen zu erkennen sowie das Gleichgewicht und die Bewegungen der Figuren im Bild umzusetzen. Mithilfe meiner Schemen wird dir das Zeichnen von Porträts, Händen und Füßen der Figur leichter fallen. Das Spiel von Licht und Schatten hilft dir außerdem, Flächen und Formen deutlich herauszuarbeiten. Unter professioneller Beratung und individueller Betreuung wird in kleinen Gruppen (ausser in den Schulferien) gearbeitet. **Termine**: letzter Sonntag des Monats, ab dem 22.02. von 13:45–16:15 Uhr **Ort:** Rämistrasse 73, 8006 Zürich **Mitbringen:** Zeichenutensilien und Zeichenblock sowie eine 1-CHF-Münze für das Schließfach. **Auskunft und Anmeldung:** marianas@gmx.ch \* 078 628 78 24 \* [www.marianas.ch](http://www.marianas.ch) Kosten: 50 CHF #

Hares are Big Top & Spermalbad. Come and join us! **Where**: Zürich Hegibachplatz / Minervastrasse, Forchstrasse 95, 8032 Zürich. Look for English speakers wearing running gear. **When:** We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm. There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards. **All Welcome:** If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know: • We are a social running/walking group. Physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is helpful. • The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and to have fun. • 'True Trail' is 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further. • The '*Hare*', who (along with the location) changes with each event, cleverly lays the trail, marking it with chalk, flour, and/or sawdust so that everyone reaches the end more or less at the same time. • There is always a place to deposit your bag, and sometimes a place to change. • **After Trail**, we group in the '*Circle*' for \~30-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, songs, and fun. This is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards. **Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?** If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it. 'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.* We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
