Writing\, drawing\, painting\, embroidery\, and even coloring has a positive effect on our wellbeing. Today\, this is more relevant than ever. \nCombine creativity and connection with support and laughter with friends. Everyone is welcome to join in – even if you just want to color in a book as we talk! While we will be sharing ideas\, showing what we are working on and giving advice on resources here in Norway or abroad\, this is first and foremost a way to enjoy what you do in the company of friends. \nThis event is suitable for anyone. Bring what you would like to work on\, share or seek input. By the end of the evening\, you’ll have made some progress on your work\, found inspiration\, met friends and told COVID you intend to carry on with your life. \nCost: Free\nPlease register to receive a Zoom link.

SUMMARY:Kundalini Fusion Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Kundalini Fusion is an energizing and strengthening class\, as well as being a physical approach to reaching a tranquil\, meditative mind. You will learn different breathing techniques and Kundalini exercises that you can practice on your own for an efficient energy shot\, or to reach a deep\, meditative state. \nKundalini Fusion is built up as a dynamic flow class\, fused with elements from Kundalini. Kundalini is a style of yoga characterised by repetitive movements coupled with a specific breath. This awakens the energy body in a unique way so you can access deeper parts of yourself and build new neural pathways. \nThese workshops are a simple way to explore Kundalini yoga both for those new to Kundalini and for those needing a revival in their existing practice. You get both the physical benefits of a dynamic flow\, as well as the more direct meditative/spiritual effects from Kundalini. \nIris Straume teaches Kundalini Fusion originally created by her teacher Vidya J. Heisel\, but the class sequence is Iris’ own. Heisel created what she called Kundalini Fusion as a more playful approach to the method\, freed from the strict doctrines. Through Kundalini Fusion the healing properties of Kundalini is conveyed in a modern and accessible way. Come and learn for yourself! \nAttending one 2 hour workshop is a great introduction to the practice.\nAttending all three workshops will better integrate the practice in your life if you wish to practice it on your own. \nAbout Iris\nIris started practicing yoga at the age of 19. She has explored a myriad of different styles\, and most of her training is in the dynamic styles of yoga. Ashtanga has been her main practice for many years\, and in recent years Kundalini yoga and meditation has become important ingredients in her practice. Iris has taught yoga for six years\, and full time since 2018. She teaches weekly classes at Hiyoga\, as well as workshops\, trainings\, and retreats. Her practice and teachings are based on the principle that there are several paths leading to the same end\, and that is liberation through dedicated\, sustained practice. The specific style and method of practice might look different for each individual. Besides yoga\, Iris is passionate about kitesurfing\, wave surfing\, and being in nature. \nTraining:\nRYT 200 Ashtanga Vinyasa with Global Yoga Shala\nRYT 300 Ashtanga Vinyasa with Hiyoga/Basia L. Larsen\n50H Yin Yoga Teacher Training with Alexandra Atterbrand\nRYT 150 Advanced Yoga Teacher Training with Frog Lotus Yoga \nShorter trainings/ immersions:\nAshtanga immersions with Mark Robberts & Deepika Mehta\, and Gregor Maehle\nYoga philosophy with Mark Stephens\nTherapeutic yoga in mental health work with Kari Lorentzen\nJivamukti immersion with Yogeswari\nKundalini Tantra with Uma Inder\nHandstand trainings \n\nCost: \nSingle Workshop: NOK400 \nMax attendees: 20 \n\n*To reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection\, we are taking precautions to keep participants safe and decrease exposure to the virus. \nBefore attending this event\, please be aware of the following rules: \n\nOnly participants who have purchased a ticket beforehand are able to attend\, in order to help us ensure having a safe number of people in our space at any time.\nPlease wash your hands or use antibacterial solution for at least 20 secs when you arrive at HerSpace.\nPlease keep a minimum of 1-meter distance to all persons and wear a mask when that is not possible.\nShared equipment\, including yoga mats\, paint brushes\, toys\, will be disinfected directly after use.

SUMMARY:Time to Talk
DESCRIPTION:The UN reports that 1 in 3 women worldwide have experienced either physical and/ or sexual intimate partner violence or sexual violence by a non-partner (not including sexual harassment). Sexual violence is one of the most common problems we have as a global society\, and we do not address it nearly enough. Join us in our very first dialogue with our guest Munira Mariama Makarov as we tackle sexual violence\, resilience and the importance of speaking up. \nAbout the series: \nTime to Talk is a series hosting a variety of topics too often neglected or avoided in our society.

SUMMARY:Creative Fridays: Handmade Cloth Napkins with Warmfolk
DESCRIPTION:Cloth table napkins add a special touch to mealtimes and is a great alternative to disposable serviettes for every meal. Back in the day\, Norwegian families gave personalized napkin rings to each family member. Dinner napkins could be reused rather than washed immediately after each meal. Your handmade dinner napkins can add to the ritual of mealtime and bring back this time honoured practice. There’s just something novel to using cloth napkins for everyday occasions and not limiting its use to fancy functions. \nDaisy will guide us through the easy process of making a set of four double-sided napkins. Bring fabric with your favorite pattern or upcycle something special like a well used table cloth that holds meaning to you. A set of four table napkins uses 2 pieces of fabric measuring 2 meters. If bringing your own fabric\, make sure both pieces of your woven (not knit) fabrics. If you don’t want to bring your own materials\, fabric will be available at the event for NOK200 for 2m of material. \nWe will have sewing stations ready and looking forward to creating with you. \nCost: NOK200\nMax Participants: 8 \nAbout WarmFolk & Daisy \n \n\nWarmFolk quilts and patterns reflect a love of traditional craft and a celebration of modern aesthetics. Daisy Aschehoug created WarmFolk as a way to move her teaching and quilt design forward in the quilting industry\, while also pursuing various art quilt endeavors. \nDaisy Aschehoug currently lives in Nesodden\, Norway. She grew up among sewing machines and fabric\, but it wasn’t till her thirties that she finally asked her mother to teach me to sew. Quilting offered an opportunity to combine her new love for sewing with all of the art classes that she’d taken throughout my life. She realized a passion for selecting fabrics to incorporate into traditional and modern quilt patterns. \nDaisy has been making quilts since 2010 and designing quilts for magazines since 2016. She is most passionate about the art of modern traditionalism and incorporating curved piecing into utility quilts. She is a member of the Modern Quilt Guild and the Studio Art Quilt Associates. \nShe has a masters in Environmental Studies from the University of Montana\, and spent several years in the United States helping federal and state governments work with communities to develop best practices for managing natural resources. Now that she is fully immersed in designing\, making\, and teaching the art of quilting\, she is excited to explore how the resources she uses in her craft can reflect socially and environmentally sustainable practices.

SUMMARY:Doing the Work: Hvit er også en hudfarge
DESCRIPTION:In the last few months we have been hosting Thursday conversations to navigate how we can better show up and act for racial justice. We’ve had some powerful exchanges of experiences and ideas. Regardless of the language\, the message is the same. It is time to engage with our Norwegian community on the topic of race. \nJoin us på norsk this Tuesday\, 29th of September\, to open up the conversation on racism\, for the locals. \nHvit er også en hudfarge \nFor oss som har hvit hud så er hudfarge noe vi kan velge å tenke på\, for deretter å ikke tenke mer på det. Oftest er det våre melanin-rike venner og kollegaer som har den utakknemlige jobben av å få oss til å reflektere\, stille spørsmål og handle annerledes når vi vet bedre. \nPå møtet vil du møte andre hvite mennesker som velger å ta samtalen om rasisme\, om hvithet\, og som forsøker å bedre måten de stiller opp for melanin-rike mennesker i livet og samfunnet sitt. Vi vil utforske hva hvithet betyr for vår identitet\, gjøre en refleksjons øvelse og snakke i små grupper om hvilke begrep og konsepter som kan være nyttige for å forstå rasisme og anti-rasisme i Norge. \nVelkommen til vår samtale for \n\nå lære mer om hvordan rasisme strukturerer samfunnet og angår oss alle\nutforske rasisme som tema i et rom der alle spørsmål er lov\ngjør et forsøk\, kanskje ikke få det til\, men fortsette å prøve\nmøte andre mennesker som også vil gjøre mer i arbeidet mot rasisme i Oslo\n\nDette er en del av en serie vi har hittil ført på engelsk Doing the Work\, men om du ennå ikke har deltatt\, så håper vi denne samtalen er noe du vil være med på.

SUMMARY:Women in Leadership: Shine Theory
DESCRIPTION:For this Women in Leadership session\, join us to hear Chisom Udeze and Sarah Przedpelska discuss Shine Theory. \nShine Theory\, developed by Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman\, is described as the practice of mutual investment in each other. Shine Theory represents an intentional commitment to collaborate with and support each other instead of competing with each other. \nRather than engage in insecurity\, Shine Theory encourages us to come into our power and have the confidence to be excited and supportive of someone else’s success. It embodies the attitude of “I don’t shine if you don’t shine.” It’s a practice of cultivating a spirit of genuine happiness and excitement when your friends are doing well\, and being there for them when they aren’t. When we find ways to elevate each other and help each other thrive\, it becomes contagious. \nCome to this session to learn about Shine Theory and women supporting women! \n*This event is free for HerSpace members (Spots are limited)*\n*This event is also free for participants from Africa Connect*\n \nThis is a recurring event. Every two weeks\, you will hear from a female leader who will share her story\, experience\, knowledge\, insights and/or advice. Light snacks and drinks will be served. \nAbout our speakers:\nChisom Udeze\nChisom Udeze\, according to Sarah Przedpelska:\n“When Chisom Udeze encounters a problem that irks her\, you can be certain she does not rest until something moves. She’s done it for over a decade within business development and economics\, and more recently\, she has been moving things in Oslo to create social impact through Diversify and HerSpace. Chisom is seldom perplexed by problems\, instead she sees them as puzzles in need of new constellations. The constellations she forms depend on collaborating with others and lifting together to form synergies and new solutions. No wonder the concept of Shine Theory has such a great appeal to her.” \n  \n  \nSarah Przedpelska\n \nSarah Przedpelska according to Chisom Udeze:\n“Sarah Przedpelska is a curious\, brave\, warm\, and brilliant individual. She approaches every situation with an open mind\, and a willingness to truly learn. She sees and values people as they are. In the years I have known Sarah she has been a confidante and a force of nature who I can reach out to when I need unfiltered honesty and advice. She expects me to be better than I am\, and she encourages me to aim higher. While I have practiced Shine Theory in one way or another throughout my adult life\, it was with Sarah that we first decided to make it intentional. She introduced me to the concept of Shine Theory and I look forward to continuing learning from her.”

SUMMARY:Vinyasa & Restorative Yoga with Nikki
DESCRIPTION:Start your week off with an energizing Vinyasa flow practice followed by a healing restorative yoga session with Nikki Hayes at HerSpace. \nVinyasa is a dynamic type of yoga that connects one posture to the next through the breath and flowing movements\, which is why it is sometimes called “Yoga flow”. It is fun and variable\, as practices are never the same. It helps to develop a more balanced body as well as prevent repetitive motion injuries. The class runs for 60 min. \nRestorative yoga is a practice to slow down and open your body through passive stretching. It is a completely different experience than most contemporary Yoga\, and it is a good complement of more active practices and our busy lives\, an excellent antidote to stress\, depression and anxiety. The class runs for 15min. You are welcome to bring blankets or pillows to support you through the poses. We will serve a light\, nourishing breakfast with tea following our session. \nCost for the full event: NOK250\nMax attendees: 12 people

SUMMARY:Creative Fridays: Make Your Own Masks with Daisy Aschehoug
DESCRIPTION:On this Creative Friday\, Daisy Aschehoug\, Founder of Warmfolk\, will be facilitating a session of mask making. Daisy has researched the best design for masks to protect you and your loved ones. All materials will be provided\, but if you would like to use your own fabric\, bring two pieces 20cm x 20cm (8in x 10in) for the exterior and interior of the mask. Fabric should be woven cotton\, not knit or jersey. Elastic will be on hand but you are also welcome to bring your own. \nDaisy’s Bio \nDaisy Aschehoug lives in Nesodden\, Norway. She grew up among sewing machines and fabric\, but it wasn’t until her thirties that she finally asked her mother to teach her to sew. Quilting offered an opportunity to combine her new love for sewing with all of the art classes that she had taken throughout her life. She discovered a passion for selecting fabrics to incorporate into traditional and modern quilt patterns. \nDaisy has been making quilts since 2010 and designing quilts for magazines since 2016. She is most passionate about the art of modern traditionalism and incorporating curved piecing into utility quilts. She is a member of the Modern Quilt Guild and the Studio Art Quilt Associates. \nShe has a masters in Environmental Studies from the University of Montana and spent several years in the United States helping federal and state governments work with communities to develop best practices for managing natural resources. Now that Daisy is fully immersed in designing\, making\, and teaching the art of quilting\, she’s excited to explore how the resources used her craft can reflect socially and environmentally sustainable practices. \n***HerSpace Membership Discounts Apply***
