Über uns
This is a community for men of all kinds. We come together in different formats to socialize, learn, grow, and to support each other. You'll often find us talking about areas of life such as our relationships, family, work, (mental) health, and spiritual growth, to name just a few...
The mission
This group creates a protected space for shifting the attention back to ourselves and spending time in the company of other men for self-reflection and personal growth. You are welcomed simply as the man you are with feelings and needs distinct from your job, your partnerships, or any other role. In the group we build relationships with other men and we work on the relationship with ourselves.
What we offer
We organize engaging group activities that span from intimate workshops to larger social gatherings. Some of our regular events include in-person and online circles, casual meet and greets, weekend retreats and outings in nature. We are constantly adding new ways to engage and always welcome members input and involvement to create new experiences.
Who is welcome?
The group is for men of any age, any ethnicity, any level of experience, any sexual preference, and any way of expressing their gender. This group is explicitly pro-men, not anti-women. We recognise of course that there are many aspects of masculinity, maleness, manhood and being a man: There is no single 'correct' way of defining these – and we don't seek to here. This group is a space for anyone who identifies as a man, and we leave it up to you to know if what we're offering sounds right for you. Everyone is invited to come along and see if our meetings are useful for them.
Psychological help
The Berlin Men’s Group is not a therapy group - the men who facilitate it are also ‘just’ community members. If you are seeking support for a psychological disorder or crisis, please consult a professional therapist.
If you are in acute distress, consider reaching out to one of these professional organisations:

Alles ansehen- Social: Meetup at Jäger und Lustig FriedrichshainJäger & Lustig, Berlin
This is a casual, social meetup in a Friedrichshain bar and eatery, with no set agenda or topics. Time to get to know some of the other men in the group and to learn about the different other formats we offer.
For newcomers, it's a relaxed opportunity to check out the group and see if it's right for you - and a chance to ask hosts and other regular attendees about what we get up to.
Get together and have a beer - perhaps an alcohol-free one, if you prefer - with us after the working day.
Jäger & Lustig is also a restaurant, if you want to grab something to eat: https://jaegerundlustig.de/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Jaeger-und-Lustig-Speisekarte-06-2024-Web-de.pdf
If weather permits we will be sitting outside in the beer garden.
We're looking forward to seeing you !
