A "thank you" letter from Sudan

Dear supporters,

Oxfam Trailwalker received a "thank you" letter from Sudan for the donations they received from last year.
You can read the letter here.

Last year's Oxfam Trailwalker donations have been used to implement projects in many of the poorest regions of the world to help end poverty and provide vital relief following natural disasters and conflict. Please click here for the details about how collected donations have been used.

A part of this year's donations will be used to continue supporting projects in Sudan and other areas in need.

Tanuki Trailwalker Theatre Workshop

We learned lots of things wih Elena! Being aware of our walking, breathing, being aware of the other, communicate, react to the sounds, being aware of the different ways to express ideas... and understand how to dive into characters that become ours.

... we had a super afternoon!!

... and fundraised 11.000 Yen for Oxfam!

Tanuki Trailwalker Yoga Workshop

The first of the three fantastic workshops "Yoga for Scientists" is over now and we all had a great time. We fundraised 25.000 ¥ at this event. Uhuuuuuuuu!!!
Here are some photos and words to share the experience with those who couldn't join.

First we listened to some explanations from Profesora Joyce :D
then we became cats, cows and other creatures :D :D
the creatures even didn't bother to go to the toilet :D :D :D
in the shame they started to twist and to spin :D :D :D :D
and they slept a bit zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
before all the creatures joined the discussion about the yogic approach to science!We had a great time and we'll also have a great time this sunday at the workshop "Introduction to Theatre Acting" by Elena (click here and check the 2nd event).
