Special workshop by Senior Yoga Teacher Sarah Manning In a world where we are constantly “on,” moving from one task to the next, many of us are running on empty without realising it. This immersive workshop is designed for students who want to deeply understand their vitality, energy, and nervous system — and learn how to consciously work with them. If you: * Feel like you are fire-fighting all day, surviving one drama after another * Experience fatigue, sleep challenges, anxiety, digestive issues, chronic pain, skin concerns, or autoimmune imbalances — but have no time for self-care * Are navigating perimenopause and hormonal shifts * Feel confused by conflicting health advice and “vague” or intermittent symptoms This session offers clarity and embodied tools. Drawing from over 30 years of study and practice, Sarah will open the door to her personal practice and guide you through the foundations of pranayama and Qigong. You will learn how to: ✨ Down-regulate your nervous system through conscious breath ✨ Support hormonal balance through specific breath patterns ✨ Improve energy circulation and resilience ✨ Integrate breath and subtle energy awareness into your daily yoga practice ✨ Move from survival mode into grounded vitality This is not just about breathing techniques — it is about reclaiming your inner rhythm and restoring your body’s natural intelligence. All levels are welcome. Whether you are refining your practice, reconnecting with your body, or simply seeking calm and clarity, this workshop will meet you where you are. Let’s greet the morning with strength, alignment, and awakened energy. 🌞 📍 Location: Botanic Gardens (Eco Lake) 🧘 Bring: Yoga mat + meditation cushion/stool \- $50/pax or $90 for 2pax ⸻ 🌿 About Sarah Manning Senior Yoga & Qigong Specialist Sarah Manning is a seasoned senior yoga instructor with over 25 years of international teaching experience in Singapore, Australia, and China.

She has been guiding teachers in back care, Yin, and holistic yoga practices for more than a decade. In addition to her yoga mastery, Sarah has trained in Qigong for over 10 years, integrating breath, movement, and subtle energy work to support vitality, balance, and inner resilience — especially in areas like fertility and energetic wellbeing. She also co-founded a holistic fertility wellness company and has led fertility yoga workshops since the late 1990s, combining traditional yoga and Qigong principles to support women with deep and informed energy practices.

## **Play, Test & Shape the Future: Dev & Draft** Join us at **Dev & Draft**, an afternoon dedicated to raw creativity and hands-on playtesting. This isn't a polished corporate expo—it’s a space where indie developers and tech builders showcase their "Work in Progress" (WIP) projects, and they need **you** to play them. ### **The Mission** Behind every great game or app is a mountain of "janky" prototypes and unfinished builds. We are bringing these early-stage projects out of the lab and into your hands. Your role is simple: **Play, break things, and give honest feedback.** *** ### **Event Details** * **Date:** Saturday, 21 March 2026 * **Time:** 1:00 PM – 10:00 PM * **Location:** SQ Collective x Gen AI Labs, 65 Mohamed Sultan Rd, Singapore *** ### **Why You Should Attend** * **First Look:** Be the first to play indie games and test new software before they hit the market. * **Direct Impact:** Talk directly to the creators. Your feedback helps them decide what to fix, keep, or scrap. ### **What Else To Expect** Dev & Draft is part of Fireplace's ideass fest. * **Cross-Domain Innovation:** Beyond gaming, explore "Ideas Fest"—a showcase of early-stage tech in SaaS, AI,and Health/Wellness. * **Networking:** Connect with a diverse community of builders, designers, and tech enthusiasts in a casual, high-energy environment.

Event location change: Monk's Brew Club Bring extension cords if you have! Hey everyone! We organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but feel working alone at home can get a bit lonely :-) To ensure that we have both socialising AND working, we will be using the so called “Pomodoro” technique: **50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat, we typically do up to 3 rounds. It’s an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique). Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background. ——————————————————- AGENDA: * **15min Intro (please come on time)** Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today * **Pomodoro Session** \- 3x \(3h\) Each Pomodoro session consists of 50min of uninterrupted “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, no phones) -> then 10min of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc. -> Repeat * **Wrap Up and dinner (optional)** Share your progress, socialise and get to know others 😊 ———— Location is Monk’s Brew Club (57 East Coast Road, Singapore 428773). We have booked a separate room with multiple tables at the 2nd floor of the cafe, just walk all the way through to the back when you walk in, or ask the barista. Wifi + power plugs are there but best to bring a fully charged laptop and extension cords, just in case 🙃 You DO NOT have to pay anything, but since we are using the café space, it would be common courtesy to buy at least one drink. Please remember to release your RSVP in case you are not able to make it for the people on the waitlist and looking forward to seeing you there! :) Note: RSVP-ing and then no show will result in penalties: 1 No show = warning 2 No shows = de-prioritized for those in waitlist 3 No shows = blocked from future events Cheers Vicente

🏛️ **WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?** Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an opportunity to dive deep on a topic, practice communicating, and building a community. All with no ‘official’ philosophy knowledge required! 😎 Practical Philosophy is based on the idea that philosophy should be accessible to all, and not something reserved only for academics. Each week we choose a topic, and the goal is to use the conversation to develop our critical thinking and communication as we explore that topic. The goal is to help develop our Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community 🙌 📓 **HOW DOES IT WORK?** Each week, we pick one topic and discuss it. The topic for the week is shared, generally in the [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Hg7zL8ClpzM3agJCvw5HDS), along with jump-off points to get the conversation going. When groups get bigger than 7-8 people, it’s important that we break into smaller groups. This way we are able to maintain a conversational flow as opposed to having our meetups feel like a discourse or lecture. **General Meeting Agenda** Each Practical Philosophy meet-up follows this general timeline: * 19:00-19:15 - People arrive and chat, get to know each other before the ‘official' start. * 19:15-19:25 - Meeting introduction, explanation of Practical Philosophy and the topic for the week, read the guidelines and the overview so attendees know what to expect in terms of timelines. * 19:25-20:45 - Break into small groups - introduce yourselves and general thoughts on the topic, open discussion afterwards. At this point the group can review the ‘jump-off’ questions as needed, but they are just there to help guide the conversation. It’s not obligatory to answer them. * 20:45-21:00 - Bring everyone back together to discuss conclusions of the topic - each group gives a short 1-minute summary. Organizer concludes the meeting and everyone takes a group photo. * 21:00 - The official meeting is over but it’s a great opportunity to get to know people in a non-structured environment, so we often stick around, chat, and get to know each other. **🧧PRICING?** Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend! We just ask that if we are meeting in a café, buy a beverage! Some chapters rent a space for us to meet, and they may ask for donations to help contribute to the cost of rent. Donations will always be 100% voluntary though! 💛 WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY 🗣 “I feel like Philosophy Club helps someone build their own belief system through a series of perspectives while not promoting what’s right and wrong” - Ekam 🗣 “I got hooked from day 1 (the topic was authority) and felt it was the right place for me. I feel it is a place where people can go to learn and discuss new perspectives and increase critical thinking and community by interacting with people who might challenge your point of views but at the same time encourage you to have openness and mind flexibility.” - Daniel **🤓 FAQ** * ​What will we talk about? What's the topic? ​The topic for the week is shared every Sunday in the Whatsapp group. We try to add the topic to the comment section on this event page as well but if you don’t see it, the topic and the jump-off points will be in our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Hg7zL8ClpzM3agJCvw5HDS). * Do I need to study or read anything to attend? No preparation is necessary. This isn’t a study of other thinkers. We want to know what YOU think about the topic, not what an old philosopher thought. If you have a perspective from a religion or a school of thought to share, throw it on the table and we’ll discuss it, but it's not required. * Is there a specific philosophy that Practical Philosophy is focused on? The goal of our meet-ups is to not have dogmatic discussions, and flex our critical thinking muscles. Because of this, we want to hear from every realm of thought, and don't study a particular school. * Is it mostly men that attend? Surprisingly, no! Although philosophy is seen as a Candelabra affair in a dark room with a bunch of guys, our Practical Philosophy meetups are generally 50/50 between genders, and we don’t meet in any dark rooms. * Can I come alone? Of course you can, we encourage it :) * Can I be late? Please don't be! We do have a 15 minute grace period where we allow people to funnel in while we hang out, but after that if you arrive too late, it disrupts the flow of the conversation. * Where do you meet? The location is posted in Meetup and our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Hg7zL8ClpzM3agJCvw5HDS) group for this location. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you join the Whatsapp group! If you want to know what other cities have a Practical Philosophy Club, you can see our chapters on our [website](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/practical-philosophy-locations/). **PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY - Making Philosophy Available To All.** ✨ Practical Philosophy hosts weekly, in-person meetups in over 20 countries, including Canada, Spain, Japan, Mexico and many more! 🗺️ \*\*\* Join our [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Hg7zL8ClpzM3agJCvw5HDS) 👈 Follow us on [Instagram](www.instagram.com/practicalphilosophyclub/) 👈 Our [website](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/) 👈

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
