The workshop starts at 8:30 AM with an introduction by Walter Pall, a renowned Bonsai expert. Participants learn through a seminar and small group discussions about plant selection and Bonsai design techniques.

Throughout the day, participants work on various trees, analyzing and discussing each one under the guidance of Walter Pall. There may also be opportunities for theoretical lectures and demonstrations by Walter Pall. The focus of the workshop is on decision-making and learning techniques, rather than completing wiring and woodwork. However, those who wish to do so are welcome.

The workshop provides refreshments and takes care of the physical well-being of participants throughout the day. Participants will go home with a deeper understanding of Bonsai design and the skills to continue practicing on their own.

General Seminar Philosophy

Everyone does as much as they want; participants are encouraged to learn, which means discovering and exploring new paths. Wiring and other techniques are taught in many courses. Here, you learn what is rarely taught, Bonsai as an art form.

The prerequisite is to know your place in the Bonsai philosophy. For this, it is necessary to understand what exactly is 'Bonsai Philosophy'. Learning through case studies. Using specific cases, craftsmanship, art, and philosophy are explained and discussed.

We don't teach laying bricks or painting; we mainly teach architecture. You can delve into craftsmanship in many other workshops. However, special techniques, such as working with deadwood or bending techniques, are applied.

Material

The workshop is designed to provide a practical learning environment for participants interested in Bonsai design and techniques. Participants are encouraged to bring their own materials to work on during the workshop, including cuttings, collected raw material, nursery plants, half-finished Bonsai, or even world-class trees. These materials are discussed, and participants have the opportunity to learn and practice various techniques under the guidance of Bonsai expert Walter Pall.

In addition to working on their own materials, participants can also work on trees from the Bonsai garden or even purchase trees to work on. This allows participants to gain experience with different trees and apply the learned techniques in a practical environment. Throughout the day, there will also be opportunities for theoretical lectures and demonstrations by Walter Pall.

To ensure that participants are well taken care of throughout the day, refreshments and snacks will be provided. At the end of the workshop, participants will have a deeper understanding of Bonsai design and the skills to continue practicing independently. Refreshments and snacks will be provided to keep participants comfortable and well-cared-for throughout the workshop.
