How can I protect my little one?\nIs it ok for my child to see the parents being physically affectionate?\nMy child is playing with his private parts\, should I stop him?\n\nAs the kids grow… so does their curiosity. \n\nHow do the Parents tackle this curiousity?\nDo you initiate the conversation even if the child is not asking?\nWhen and how to start having these conversations?\nWho should have this conversation with the child?\nHow to answer the awkward questions kids ask?\nHow to create an open relationship with kids?\n\nAll this and more…. \nIn an exclusive talk for parents on Zoom. \nThe increasing exposure of Kids to adult content has raised their curiosity levels \nSome openly ask what’s on their mind while most turn to the internet to satisfy their curiosity. \nAge-inappropriate content on the internet is creating havoc \nThe solution lies in Sex Education  \nIt gives kids age-appropriate answers & helps them form responsible & safe attitudes \nThe term ‘Sex Education’ could be a scary one for a parent. \nWe are scared because we do not understand what it means & construe it to be a talk on sex with our children\, and thus run away from it. Parents also shy away from sex education as they themselves lack clarity on concepts & feel ill equipped to tackle questions. \nSex education is not just about sex. It is a wide term and even kids as young as 2 need sex education! \nWell\, attend UnTaboo’s highly enlightening\, interactive\, impactful & fun session! \nBREAK THE WALL OF SILENCE \nTo know & to understand: \n\nWhat all does Sex Education cover\nWhen & how to start having these conversations\nWho should have this conversation with the kids\nHow much is enough\nThe impact: positive & negative of having or not having this conversation.\nHow to answer the awkward questions kids ask\nHow to create an open relationship with kids & teens\nHow to become an askable parent\n\nBut it doesn’t just end there. \n\nThe talk helps you get over your inhibitions\nEnables understanding on various sex-ed related topics including gender\, sexuality\, & more\nIt empowers you to naturally talk to children & create a closer bond with them\n\nThis session is designed to break down walls\, understand concepts\, enable open conversations\, make awkward subjects not so awkward\, and put a parent on the path of becoming an askable parent. It is a liberating experience both for the parent and the child. \nAnd most importantly\, makes you a part of big social change to raise a more aware and responsible future generation\, leading to a safer society. \nDuration of the Talk: 2 hours – VERY INTERACTIVE SESSION USING AUDIO-VISUAL MEDIUM \nNumber of Participants:  Any number (Parents of children aged 2 to 21) \nHappy participants speak… \n“I thought I was very liberal and open minded and could talk openly to my kids\, but Anju’s talk opened my eyes to a completely new perspective. It’s an extremely impactful talk and she makes it super interactive and fun!” – Aneesha Patel\, Indore \n “The talk conducted by Anju Kish was able to bring clarity in the minds of teachers and parents and dispel a lot of myths. It was an eye-opener of how ignorant they were on certain issues and at the same time a great exposure on how to handle queries on such issues. Ms. Anju handled the sessions with ease and great poise. A great session and thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.” – Garimaa Sethi – School Counselor\, Mayo College\, Ajmer \nDate: Sat 16 March 2024 \nTime: 4 – 5:30p.m. SGT \nPlatform: Zoom \nInvestment: S$25 \nThis session will not be recorded.

SUMMARY:ItaliAE in Singapore: A photographic journey through Italy from Alinari to the Masters of Contemporary Photography
DESCRIPTION:From 18 May to 17 June 2022\, Singapore residents have the opportunity to do a photographic journey in Italy through the images of Alinari Foundation\, the oldest photographic agency in the world. \nThe photography exhibition ItaliAE\, organised by the Embassy of Italy in Singapore\, supported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation and with Alinari and Fondazione Alinari as partners\, will take place in two venues: Visual Arts Centre (18 May – 15 June 2022\, 3-9 pm\, 10 Penang Road #01-02\, Dhoby Ghaut Green\, S238469) and National Library (20 May – 17 June 2022\, 12-7pm\, Level 9 Promenade\, 100 Victoria Street S188064). Entrance will be free. \nItaly’s Ambassador to Singapore\, Mr Mario Andrea Vattani\, says: “ItaliAE is an exhibition conceived to convey the beauty and variety of Italy\, its landscapes\, its creativity and its people through photography. Singaporeans\, who are increasingly showing an appreciation of Italy and its art and culture\, will have the opportunity to discover a plural Italy\, on which over time of the gaze of photographers with very different tones\, techniques and styles has fallen\, careful to capture the country’s mobile and complex identities\, its traditions as well as its subtlest lines of evolution. We invite all the communities in Singapore to visit ItaliAE”. \n \nA composite anthology of shots – over 160 images taken from historical and contemporary archives – retraces a century and a half of history\, recreating an ideal gallery of portraits and memories\, witnessing the extraordinary vitality of Italian photography. From the Alinari brothers\, pioneers and protagonists of an approach to art and communication through images that accompanied the construction of the national identity\, to the great masters of twentieth-century Italian photography and contemporary photography. Through the works of over 75 authors\, an original visual narrative of our country is built: a story that is at the same time a small compendium of the history of photography\, its techniques and its aims and aesthetic assumptions. \n‘ItaliAE’ presents itself as a never-seen-before exhibition project\, capable of bringing together\, in a sometimes surprising way\, the photography of yesterday and today\, and techniques very distant in time\, from calotype to I-photography\, from autochrome of the early twentieth century to very modern Virtual Photography. \nThe exhibition is divided into three sections – Landscapes\, Works and Faces -\, each providing an ideal historical\, artistic and documentary journey through the modes and genres of photography: a structure that is both simple – of great impact and immediate communicative power – and complex\, able as it is to illuminate scenarios that are very different in origin and tone. \nThe exhibition\, created by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation\, in collaboration with Fratelli Alinari IDEA Spa\, curated by Rita Scartoni and Luca Criscenti\, will be presented abroad from 2021 in collaboration with the diplomatic-consular network and with the Italian Institutes of Culture. The images on display largely come from the Alinari Collections\, declared by the Ministry for Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism\, in December 2018\, “of particularly important historical interest”; These are flanked by a selection of materials taken from archives and studies of the main Italian photographers of the twentieth century – already established authors as well as young protagonists of ultra-contemporary photography. \nWhen and Where?\n18 May – 15 June 2022 / 3-9pm \nVisual Arts Centre\n10 Penang Road\, #01-02\nDhoby Ghaut Green\nSingapore 238469 \n& \n20 May – 17 June 2022 /12-7pm \nNational Library\nLevel 9 Promenade\n100 Victoria Street Singapore 188064 \n  \nFor more information\, contact segr2.singapore@esteri.it . \n\nImage and Video: Alinari Archives

SUMMARY:NParks-AIA Explore a Route Challenge
DESCRIPTION:The challenge is conducted using the NParks Explore A Route (NEAR) app\, an updated version of the Coast-to-Coast (C2C) application that was first launched in 2019. The app continues to use interactive augmented reality (AR) elements to provide users with a curated walking experience\, as well as an online trail guide. The revamped app allows users to map their own trail and share it with others. \nThe goal is to encourage individuals to explore our green spaces with their family and friends and lead a healthier lifestyle. The challenge encourages park visitors to enjoy nature in a new way through the revamped app. AIA Singapore is NParks’ first partner that has come onboard to create a challenge on the revamped app. This is part of the life insurer’s commitment to support Singapore’s City in Nature vision for a more sustainable society and for families to live healthier\, longer and better lives together. \nTake part in the challenge and stand to win Decathlon e-vouchers (worth S$50 each) in the monthly lucky draw\, with three 13″ MacBook Air laptops and 10 Fitbit Sense smartwatches up for grabs in the grand lucky draw at the end of the Challenge! \n \nAbout the Challenge\nThe “NParks – AIA Explore a Route Challenge” will commence on 20 May 2022 in conjunction with the release of the NEAR app and will run till 20 July 2022. It is open to all to participate. Participants must play the in-app game Tic Tac Toe Board on the NEAR app which requires them to physically complete various trails ranging from 5 km to 15 km per trail. They will have a chance to win rewards at the end of each month within the challenge period or in the Grand Lucky Draw at the end of the challenge. There are nine starting points across eight proposed trails including the Coast-to-Coast (Central) Trail and various Park Connector Loops. AIA Singapore has contributed close to S$14\,000 worth of prizes\, which include shopping vouchers and a laptop\, towards the challenge. \nThe challenge encourages users to experience the newly added NParks-curated trails and try out the new “Phyll My Trail” feature\, which allows users to customise their own recreational trails in the revamped NEAR app. It empowers users to design routes to suit their interests and discover unique biodiversity and interesting features along the trail. In doing so\, it seeks to improve their physical and mental well-being through the positive effects of nature. \nThe NEAR Application\nSince its initial launch in 2019\, the C2C mobile application has been well received with close to 100\,000 downloads. It features interactive AR elements such as 3D-animated characters. These characters provide interesting information about native flora and fauna\, and surrounding points of interest that users will encounter along our park trails and park connectors. The revamped app now allows users to curate their own trails and share the mapped trails with their in-app friends or on social media for them to experience and enjoy. This will encourage the community to exchange experiences with others and explore a wider variety of trails. In doing so\, Singaporeans will get to appreciate nature more while forging closer bonds. This is in line with our efforts to make Singapore into a City in Nature– a key pillar in the Singapore Green Plan\, which is a national movement to advance sustainable development – to create a green\, liveable and sustainable home for all Singaporeans. \n  \nMore information about the NEAR app and challenge can be found here. \n\nImages: National Parks Board

SUMMARY:Sugar & Spice Community Sharing: Our LGBTQIA Stories
DESCRIPTION:June is Pride Month. \nThis session welcomes people of all gender\, sexual orientation and abilities. Conducted using Zoom\, you can always turn your video and audio off\, rename self\, and private message the presenter so you can participate to the extent you’re comfortable with. Auto captioning will be provided and if you have a specific accessibility request\, let us know at contact@eroscoaching.com. Recording will be made available for 30 days. \nMore about Sugar & Spice\nThe Sugar and Spice movement allows a discourse to transform conventional thinking that people raised in traditional societies are unable to express themselves with confidence and purpose when it comes to sex – preferences\, attitudes\, social discretion and judgement. What are the drivers that compel people to make certain choices in life that have a long lasting impact? \nPerhaps it is their conservative upbringing or the fact that sex has often been a taboo topic not to be spoken of at home. We aim to impart positive messages and learning around sex\, sexuality and sexual wellness. Empowering participants to listen\, observe\, learn and find sexual wellness by their own free will. \nThroughout our events we will work together with participants to question and refine their mind-set\, freeing them from any cultural measures that could have resulted in low sexual self-esteem and a fear of enjoying the pleasures of positive sexual wellness that generates happiness and overall self-positivity. Working closely with participants with care and privacy we aim to help close the gap on their lack of sexual education and positive role models regarding sexual wellness. \nThe online nature of our events allows participants from all over the world to connect and interact with others who may have a similar or comparable upbringing. To ensure that sessions are dynamic\, interactive and helpful\, speakers and facilitators are all skillful and empathetic experts in their field. \nDate: Thursday 2 June 2022\n \nTime: 7:00 – 8:00p.m. Singapore Time \nPlatform: Online via Zoom \nFee: Donation of S$10 recommended. Nobody will be turned away for lack of funds. \nSign up at www.ErosCoaching.com/Events. \nFor enquiries\, please email info@eroscoaching.com.

SUMMARY:Never Too Early: A Guide to Talking about Sex with Children
DESCRIPTION:As parents\, we will receive thousands of questions from our children but the one type of question that we often fear is the sexual related topic. Talking about sex\, sexuality\, and bodies should not be an intimidating experience because it is an important part of their journey in helping them to have a healthy relationship with themselves\, their body\, and the people around them. \nThe most important messages we want to provide are that you are open to talking about this topic\, you provide a safe and non-judgmental environment\, and give them confidence that they can rely on you for the right information when they have any questions or curiosity about it. \nHowever\, sexual education is not a one-off conversation like having “The Talk” when they got in trouble or when you think they are ready for it\, but it is an ongoing conversation that we can start from a young age with simple language and evolves with more details as they grow up. \nWhat to expect from this talk: \n\nUnderstanding what is sex education\nHow to be comfortable with sexual topics\nWhen do we start talking about it\nHow to talk about it\nThe importance of having this conversation\n\nThis talk is suitable for anyone who is a caregiver\, educators or parents to prepare them to be confident and comfortable in talking about sex with the children under their care. \nDate: Thurs 16 June 2022 \nTime: 7:30 – 9:00p.m. Singapore time \nFee: By donation. Recommended S$25. All contributions will be given to our workshop presenter as an honorarium. \nVenue: Virtual via Zoom \nEnquiries: To book\, please email info@eroscoaching.com \nAbout Andrea Koh\n\n\n\n\nAndrea Koh has always been passionate about sex education since young when she noticed how the lack of sexual knowledge in the community causes sexual issues and nothing is being done to help prevent it. Therefore\, she decided to be the person that started the trend of making sexual topics more open and fun to talk about. \nHaving a Master of Sexology from Curtin Australia and currently doing her Master of Professional Counselling at Monash Malaysia have provided the skills and knowledge to educate and help individuals or couples with relationship and sexual concerns. \nShe has also received American Association of Sexuality Educators\, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) CEs on supporting clients to overcome Vaginismus. For the past 4 years\, she has been co-treating women and couples from overseas and across Malaysia with vaginismus issues along with in-house Physiotherapists at Vibrance Pelvic Health Centre using a multi-disciplinary approach. \nShe has also been featured in HerInspirasi and Jelita magazines on topics related to relationships and sex. Other than that\, Andrea has experience in educating the public about STI/HIV\, safe sex\, relationship and sex\, and how pelvic health can improve one’s quality of life. \nWebsite: www.vibrance.com.my \nEmail: andrea@vibrance.com.my \nIG: @secrettalk_andrea / @myvibrance \nFB: @myvibrance

Supported by Sport Singapore and part of its initiative to bring sports back after the pandemic\, this weekend festival which was last held virtually in 2020 comes back as every yogi’s ultimate namaste playground with an array of classes to suit all levels. \nFrom mass yoga sessions at the Flow Stage to specialised classes at the Explore Stage led by iconic yoga teachers\, an AcroYoga Village featuring popular personalities for partner movement and play\, and a curated selection of healthy bites to refuel\, the first mass in-person yoga event since the pandemic will reconnect and reunite yogis physically again\, at the same time inspire newcomers to join in the flow and festivities. \n\nThe international line-up of star instructors include Dice lida-Klein (@diceyoga) from US\, Victor Chau (@victorchauyoga) from HK\, Jonathan Rea (@acrowithjon) from US and Melanie Ladybase (@ladybase_) from Canada along with popular local teachers like Brandon Chong (@branstands)\, Dawn Sim (@thatmomoffour)\, Miryam Acosta(@miyam_acosta)\, and Jiamin (@jyanyoga). \nOrganiser and Founder of Yogafest W.E.\, Tricia Fok\, an avid yogi and AcroYoga practitioner herself\, is thrilled that she can finally organise Yogafest W.E. in-person\, and unite and grow a community of wellness after 2 years.
