Yoga mit Nina Bettermann Sonntags 17 Uhr — 18:30 Uhr 90 Minuten intensive, ausgiebige Asana-Praxis mit wechselndem Schwerpunkt sowie Meditation stehen immer auf dem Programm. Unterrichtet wird die Stunde von Jivamuktilehrerin Nina Bettermann. Unterrichtssprache ist Deutsch - English if required!! Nina Bettermann Nina ist 800-Stunden zertifizierte Jivamukti-Lehrerin. 2005 besuchte sie ihre erste Yogastunde. Was anfangs als Ausgleich zum stressigen Studium gedacht war, wurde schnell zur unverzichtbaren täglichen Praxis. Nachdem sie verschiedene Yogastile ausprobiert hatte, fand sie schließlich im Jivamukti Yoga ihr Zuhause. Daher entschloss sie sich im Winter 2010, nach dem Abschluss ihres Pharmaziestudiums, das Jivamukti Yoga Teacher Training mit Sharon Gannon, David Life Patrick Broome und Yogeswari zu absolvieren. 2014 folgte das 800hrs-Apprenticeship bei ihrer Mentorin Vera. Seitdem unterrichtet Nina, neben ihrer Tätigkeit als Apothekerin, in mehreren Berliner Yogastudios. Dabei ist ihr aber die eigene tägliche Praxis weiterhin heilig. Denn nur was man selber erlebt hat, kann man auch authentisch weitergeben und unterrichten :) The balance recommended: Donation-Drop-In 13-16€ USC Members Welcome: USC M (4x), L (8x), XL (8x) Studiocard Price: https://www.yogaatlobeblock.de/preise

You are studying German but you don't get a chance to practice speaking? In our conversation class you can practice and fine tune your German in a structured class, guided by an experienced German teacher. Get the Berlin Connection membership https://berlinconnection.io/ for up to 5 conversation classes per week, podcasts worksheets and writing practice. Plans start at 20 EUR per month. Or: Try one class here for 5 EUR. It's a great chance to practice your German, develop your conversation skills and meet interesting people. A positive and supportive ambiance will make you talk better in no time. Improved fluency and pronunciation, an extended vocabulary and personal feedback will give you confidence in future conversations in your job or private life. How does it work online? Please take time at least 10 minutes before the event to pay and register for an account at http://zoom.us (in case you don't have one already). In each session we have a new topic and will tackle a variety of vocabulary. We will use the breakout feature of Zoom. You will get different discussion points and speak one-on-one with 3-4 other German learners in a separate chat room. After around 5-10 minutes I'll join your room and you'll give me an account of your conversation. I'll then correct your German and give you personalized feedback. After that you'll be assigned to a new group and discuss a new point. Are there requirements? If you already started B2 - you are ready! Why is there a fee? Hosting a meetup is not free. The €5 fee covers the Meetup organizer fee, the zoom membership fee, the preparation and the teaching of the class. Note: This meetup is part of a network with more members on other platforms. The number of attendees indicated here is not the actual number! Feel free to contact me if you should have any questions. I'm looking forward to seeing you! Nadine

Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
