Authentic Games Berlin

We are starting into a new round of having some human magic happen :)

What to expect at an Authentic Games Berlin event?
Authentic Relating is embodied communication practice. We search for authenticity – staying true to your needs, feelings and boundaries – while relating to other human beings with their needs, feelings and boundaries.

Theme of the evening: Taking Space, Giving Space
Have you ever felt torn between needing rest at home and feeling obliged to go out, meet friends, and be part of things? Have you ever gotten stuck in a conversation where everything is about them and there seems to be no space for you? Or on the other hand, have you ever occupied a shared space in a way that leaves little room for others? The art of taking and giving space is not always easy. It calls for presence, self‑awareness, attunement, reading the room, and moving fluidly between expressing yourself and making room for others. In this session, through Authentic Relating games we will practice how to honor self and other and navigate the relational dynamics of creating shared space, where connection can unfold in a way that feels balanced for everyone.

And as usual: Come Curious - Leave Connected.

Join us on Tuesday, 16th June 2026 at Café Maggie, Frankfurter Allee 205, 10365 Berlin, 7–9 pm (please come to land up to 15 minutes earlier, as we start at the full hour, doors close at 7 pm)

Accessibility and diversity note
We aim to make our Authentic Games events accessible and diverse. We would like to explicitly welcome everybody, regardless of age, social background, identity, body shape, (dis)abilities etc. We put effort into dismantling biases and systems of oppressions we participate in as well as meeting various access needs. Feel free to contact us at [authenticgamesberlin@gmail.com](mailto:authenticgamesberlin@gmail.com) if you have any concerns or questions in this regard.

Authentic Games events are based on talking and listening to other people in pairs, trios or bigger groups. Depending on the number of participants, this may generate a considerable level of noise in the space.
The event is held in English with possible translation to German or Polish. While playing the game you can talk in a language you choose with your partner(s). Sometimes the games may also involve movement (for example walking). Consensual touch with other participants is allowed but never necessary.

The upcoming event is happening in Café Maggie at Frankfurter Allee 205 – next to U-Bahn Magdalenenstraße. The space is on the ground floor, but there is one small doorstep at the entrance. There is a barrier free toilet inside. Despite the name, you cannot buy drinks in Café Maggie, but we provide water and tea for participants.
