Wellness Wonder: Breezy Yoga @Harbour Front
**★ This is a paid event ★**
In this 1‑hour class, we practice gentle stretching and Hatha yoga with mindful breathing, focusing on basic poses, clear alignment and slow, steady movement. The pace is beginner‑friendly, with options to go deeper if you already have some experience, and the goal is to leave you feeling calmer, lighter and more connected to your body.
I didn’t grow up with a sports background, and my body is naturally quite stiff and not very coordinated. That’s exactly why yoga has been so helpful for me. It gave me a gentle way to start moving, and over time it has helped me build flexibility, mobility and strength in a way that feels kind and sustainable. If you feel stiff, out of practice or nervous about joining a class, you’re very welcome here. This session is designed with beginners and “not‑so‑sporty” people in mind.
This class is for you if you:
● Are new to yoga or returning after a break
● Want a simple movement routine without a gym or studio membership
● Prefer small, relaxed groups and a supportive atmosphere
● Are local or travelling and want to enjoy the waterfront with mindful exercise
**About the instructor – Sophia Chu**
Sophia is a 200‑hour certified yoga teacher and practicing landscape architect with experience in hospitality design, giving her a strong eye for space, atmosphere and how nature and cities shape how we feel. She is also a landscape architecture lecturer, used to guiding groups step by step and helping beginners feel at ease.
Originally from Taiwan, she has lived abroad for over two decades, teaches fluently in English and Chinese, and welcomes people from all backgrounds. Since 2021 she has run the social Meetup group Wondering Wanderer and leads yoga sessions with FitFam Hong Kong, creating comfortable spaces for people to move, relax and connect.
**Class fee: HKD 100**
☆ This helps cover the Meetup platform and the tutor’s preparation and teaching time.
☆ Many studio packages in Hong Kong work out to around HKD 120–200 per class, so this HKD 100 community rate is intentionally kept affordable and flexible.
**How to reserve your seat**
1\. RSVP on Meetup
2\. Send payment via Payme or FPS to 9177 1700 and note: “Breezy Yoga \+ date”
3\. You will receive a spot confirmation after payment
**Refund / cancellation:**
Cancellations made more than 48 hours before class can be refunded or moved to another Breezy Yoga date. Cancellations within 48 hours or no‑shows are non‑refundable, as the spot has been held and planning already done.

Conscious Choice: Taking the Wheel from the Autopilot
*“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” — Adapted from Carl Jung*
**What is a recurring pattern in your life that you’ve always chalked up to "just the way things are," but might actually be a choice you didn't know you were making?**
We all like to believe we are the conscious authors of our own lives. We wake up, pursue our careers, nurture relationships, and make daily decisions with the conviction that we are fully in the driver's seat. For the most part, this belief keeps us moving forward, allowing us to build our lives with a sense of control and purpose.
But sometimes, we notice strange echoes. We find ourselves repeating the same frustrating relationship dynamics, reacting with familiar anxieties, or following well-meaning expectations we've never paused to examine. We hit invisible walls and call it "bad luck," or we feel inexplicably stuck and chalk it up to "fate."
Conscious Choice is the profound, sometimes unsettling process of looking under the hood. It is the act of checking our "blind spots"—the hidden impulses, unexamined fears, and borrowed beliefs that run our minds on autopilot—and asking: Am I actually making a free decision right now, or am I just following a default setting?
Join us at this Curious Souls Cafe gathering to explore the brave, liberating work of turning off the autopilot. We will discuss how to untangle our authentic desires from our passed-down habits, the courage it takes to face our hidden drivers, and the profound freedom of finally taking the steering wheel.
Bring your stories, a brave spirit, and an open mind. Let's explore what happens when we finally step out of the background noise and make a choice that is entirely our own.
**Inviting those who...**
🪞 Are curious about the hidden drivers behind their daily routines and major life choices.
🧭 Feel like they are repeating certain life patterns and want to figure out how to break the cycle.
🗝️ Seek a brave, judgment-free space to discuss the deeper, sometimes messy layers of the human experience.
🫂 Want to understand the everyday expectations they absorbed, and decide what to keep and what to leave behind.
🤝 Hope to find "kindred spirits" who appreciate profound, authentic conversations over small talk.
📅 Agenda / What You'll Experience
💬 Prompted Conversations
We will use virtual question cards designed to help people thoughtfully explore their experiences. Here are some sample questions:
* We make thousands of choices a day. In your own life, what does it feel like to make a truly "conscious" choice versus a choice made purely on "autopilot"?
* Without oversharing, what is an everyday expectation or borrowed belief that you built parts of your life around before you thought to question it?
* Making a conscious choice sometimes means stepping out of familiar patterns. How do you balance honoring your authentic self while still maintaining harmony with the people around you?
* Waking up from the autopilot can feel daunting. What is one small, practical way you can inject a moment of total awareness into your daily routine tomorrow?
From there, we’ll embark on a respectful, engaging, and meaningful conversation, celebrating the diversity of perspectives and ideas within the group.
Note: This session may involve virtual question cards accessed via a link or QR code. If you do not have a device (phone/tablet) to access these, please ask a facilitator for assistance; we have spare units available. The exact format of the event may change depending on turnout according to [https://curioussouls.cafe/#how-to](https://curioussouls.cafe/#how-to) and other factors.
💬 Final Thoughts and Feedback
Where time allows, in the final 10 minutes of the event, we’ll take a moment to reflect on the key insights, memorable moments, and takeaways from our discussions. This is a chance to distill the shared wisdom and leave with a deeper understanding of the topics we’ve explored together.
After the event officially concludes, the group may choose to extend the session, depending on the group’s interest. Of course, you’re welcome to leave at any time that feels right for you.
An anonymized summary will be shared for sessions where key insights are identified. After the meeting, our facilitators and participants may reflect on the discussion and contribute to a summary or collaborative workbook based on their notes and observations. Additionally, questions may be revisited in future sessions in an anonymized manner.

Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on.
That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable.
In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork.
This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it.
We’ll cover:
* Why “it looks good” is not enough
* How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints
* How to compare LLM outputs more systematically
* Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness
* How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results
* Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop
By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Learning from Everyday Data
**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data**
How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice.
Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look.
In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it.
**About Our Speaker:**
[Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences.
