Garwin
Learning creative process from a real artist (drawing and/or painting)
I believe that everyone can draw. All it takes is to sit down, start, and keep practicing. I have taught myself to draw faces/portraits and that is why I am very enthusiastic about conveying my creative process to others, so that they can also get started with what they want to create. I have developed my art and creative process throughout my life. After training at three different art academies, including Willem de Kooning in Rotterdam, I have now been working full-time as an artist for 8 years. I make my works with acrylic paint, but I still draw and sketch a lot on paper. My art style is a mix of spontaneous realism and abstract use of color, pop art and comic style. Are you interested in being creative, even if you don't know how and/or whether you can do it yet? No problem. We will work together and you will find your way of drawing or painting.

Andrea James
Personal training and bodywork treatments (for chronic pain)
I adopt a unique, holistic approach to movement that combines elements of yoga, tai chi and breathwork. Some of the benefits of a regular practice include a healthier, more supple spine, increased range of motion, greater joint stability, improved agility and athletic performance and a deep internal strength. It addresses the whole human system bringing it into greater balance. Promotes the clearing and awakening of the lymphatic and cardiovascular system. Focusing on the breath it stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system resulting in a sense of calm, well-being and mental clarity. The ultimate goal of this practice is to create a better body and emotional awareness making the person feel at home in one's body. I also offer a bodywork treatment of 2h that has the ability to relieve acute and chronic physical pain while treating somatic manifestations of emotional and mental pain through deep connective tissue massages.

Michele
Classical Guitar and Music Theory lessons for all levels and ages.
I am Michele, a professional musican with a Classical Guitar Master degree and I give guitar and music theory lessons for beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. I believe that studying classical guitar is one of the best ways to acquire technique (such as arpeggiated, scales, good left hand position, rasgueado ect ...), musicality and expression which can later be exploited to play whatever you want, including other musical genres. I usually aim at the student's acquisition of basic knowledge relating to the instrument and music theory and then follow a path that best suits the characteristics, tastes and objectives of each one. Each lesson is unique, adapted to the student's personality. I am also available for the preparation of the entrance exams to the guitar courses (preparatory courses, Bachelor, Master) of the Conservatory.
