**Family of Abundance** Sonntag, 26.04.2026 Dieses Wochenende ist rand voll mit Ecstatic Dance Events. Zum Landen machen wir also **statt unserem regulären Dance** einen tiefer in die Verbindung gehenden **Familienabend**. Weniger Bühne, mehr Wohnzimmer. Weniger Sensation, mehr geerdetes Aufladen. Ein Wohlfühlabend, mit besonders nährenden Momentan. Wir bringen die vielen wundervollen Geschenke der letzten Abundance Circles zusammen und schaffen einen offen Rahmen in dem wir als echte Familie die Abundance in unserem Alltag, in unserem gemeinsamen Hier und Jetzt wirklich Leben können. Wir beginnen im offenen Miteinander, sitzen beieinander, essen mitgebrachte Lieblingsspeisen, atmen durch, lassen die Woche ausklingen. Danach gehen wir miteinander in einen Abundance Circle – als Familie, die sich tiefer wahrnimmt, in einem immer klareren Fülle Feld. Mit einer kleinen Zeremonie, mit Kakao, mit viel Raum für das, was gerade da sein will. Nichts muss, vieles kann entstehen. Wir schenken uns und dem Thema Fülle Aufmerksamkeit und hören gut auf einander. Was danach passiert, entscheiden wir zusammen. Singen. Tanzen, ganz sanft, ganz akustisch. Den Kreis weitertragen – wir lauschen und folgen dem Impuls. Das ist ja eigentlich der Punkt: dass wir wieder lernen, aufeinander zu hören statt ein Programm abzuspulen. Klar angeleitet, damit die Energie aufrecht gehalten bleibt. Zum Abschluss lauschen wir einer Sound Journey wo jeder für sich sein kann oder in der Mitte des Raumes im Kuddle Circle. Nah. Warm. Getragen. Dann lassen wir gemeinsam ausklingen. Jeder bleibt solange er will – mit weiterem Essen, Musik und was sich aus der Entspanntheit heraus öffnet. **Ablauf** 🍲 16:00 Gemütliches Ankommen mit Potluck 💎 17:30 Abundance Circle mit Zeremonie 🪔 18:00 Wohlfühlraum & Kakao – gemeinsam im Abundance-Feld verankern 🎶 19:00 Wahlprogramm – Singen, Tanzen, Circle weiterführen (sanft & akustisch) 🌺 21:00 Sound Journey mit Kuddle Circle 🪷 22:00 Offenes Ende – Essen, Musik, Familie 🌿Als Beitrag, nimm bitte dein Lieblingsgericht und einen Förderbeitrag für unseren Raum mit. 📍 Vitality Base Vienna, Leberstraße 118A, 1110 Wien Find.VitaltiyBase.at 🔗 events.vitalitybase.at

*Included in the new [Tango Learning Pass](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/tango-learning-pass/) –* A grounded, embodied approach to Tango Argentino for beginners building foundations and improvers seeking clarity, depth, and freedom. **Every Sunday (except during our Tango Immersion Weekends)**, we explore the essentials of Tango Argentino focusing not only on what to do, but on how and why we move the way we do in this dance. ✨ **No previous experience required**, just curiosity to work with essential principles that allow you to understand the Tango Argentino language sooner, and adapt easier to real social dance situations. **✨ Experienced dancers refine technique and efficiency of their movements** ✨ **You can come with or without a dance partner**, and learn the role(s) of your choice (Jessica encourages to learn both). ✨ **Each class is followed by our Focused Práctica**, a guided practice gathering for all levels, where you can take time to socialize and integrate what you learned, ask questions, receive feedback, and practice in a relaxed and supportive environment. ### **Dates & Time** **Sundays** (except during the Tango Immersion intensive weekends \* check [agenda](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/#agenda) for specific dates) **19:00–20:00** Tango Basics Class **20:00–22:00** Practice Gathering with feedback ### **📍 Location** EWTO Akademie – **Breitenseer Straße 6, 1140 Wien** ### **Registration** Drop-in possible. Registration at jessicagerdel.com is recommended. **The [Tango Learning Pass](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/tango-learning-pass/) includes all our weekly classes (Wednesday and this Sunday course) and the practice sessions.** €20 per person per class €15 per person per Guided Practice session €85 pack of 4 classes in a row + Guided Practice sessions after each class Young students and people with limited income can request a 20% partial scholarship via email or in person. PS. This course doesn't include classes on April 19th, May 17th, June 21st and July 19th because of Jessica's [Tango Immersion](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/tangoimmersion) Weekends. She'll guide you on which workshops are suitable for beginners if you want to join us those weekends too. **Teaching approach** Spoiler alert: This is not about copying and memorizing steps. Jessica's teaching focus is on body awareness, connection, and developing good habits from the start — so what you learn works in real social dance situations and truly supports your dance in the long term. **Check out more about her work at [jessicagerdel.com](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/) and on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/tangoimmersion/)/[Instagram](http://www.instagram.com/abrazatango): Abrazatango.** Looking forward to seeing you there!

A gentle space to slow down and unwind at the end of the week. This session is designed to help you release stress, calm the nervous system, and transition softly into the weekend through guided relaxation and subtle live sound. No experience needed. Just come, lie down, listen, and rest. Open to everyone.

Arnold Schönberg (1874–1951) was one of the most significant figures in the creative world in the first half of the 20th century. Following in the tradition of Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, and Mahler, the Austrian (and, after his immigration to New York and later Los Angeles, also US-American) composer, music theorist, teacher, and writer reshaped the practice of harmony in classical music. Some of Schönberg’s most famous contributions were the development of his twelve-tone-method and his attention to sound color (Klangfarbe), both of which strongly influenced generations of composers up until today. But Schönberg’s creative world goes beyond music. He was a designer, painter, inventor, and systems thinker: building tools and furniture, binding books, designing stage sets and costumes, inventing machines, and even building his own chess set, for four players. In this meetup, we explore Schönberg through a UX lens: what can his way of thinking, making, and problem-solving teach us about design, tools, and user experience today? We will also look at the museum and concert space as an experience that unfolds through the perception of an audience. The [Arnold Schönberg Center](https://schoenberg.at/) is a repository of Schönberg's archival legacy. Director Dr. Ulrike Anton will provide an introduction to the Arnold Schönberg Center. User researcher Dr. Franziska Brunner will give us a guided tour and lead a discussion of the exhibition. Arnold Schönberg's estate is on [UNESCO’s Memory of the World Register](https://www.unesco.at/en/communication/documentary-heritage/memory-of-the-world-in-austria/arnold-schoenberg-estate), recognized for its global importance as a documentary heritage. After an afternoon in the museum space from 3:00–6:00 p.m.. We also invite you to attend an [in-house concert at 6:30 p.m](https://schoenberg.at/en/events/upcoming-events/3793/loops-from-other-planets)., followed by dinner. 🎻 🍽️ * The €18 concert price includes entrance to the exhibit. (Entrance to just the exhibit without the concert costs € 6.) * Admission for both the museum and the concert is free for those under 26 years old. * Dinner afterwards is optional, and everyone will cover their own meal. *Photo: Replica of Schönberg's study room © Johannes Böck*

This is our weekly event! Hey Badminton Enthusiasts! This meet-up is for all levels: beginners, intermediates and experts. Everyone is welcome to join, test their skills and have some fun together! The host will reserve courts in advance, that means please only register if you really plan to come (or cancel at least 24 hours before the event starts). The fee for this event is 12€ (for the 2 hours). If you plan on paying in cash, please bring the exact amount as the host might not have any change available. We are meeting at about 10:55 am near the reception by the lounge area (next to the courts). Come a bit earlier so you have time to change into workout/sports clothes. The locker rooms are free to use, but for the men lockers you need a padlock - or you can also take your bag of clothes upstairs to the courts if you do not have a padlock. Also, bring clean indoor sports shoes, your racket and a water bottle with you. There is a drinking fountain available if you need to replenish your bottle. If you do not have a racket, it is possible to rent rackets from the club, if necessary (3€). Sometimes the host or other members have spare rackets - please ask in the comment section below! If you are joining our events for the first time, WELCOME! Let the host know that you are new and they will find a place for you. Don't worry, we are an open and friendly group. We are sure you will develop connections with the people in our community in no time! Without further ado - let's play some badminton and have fun together!
