The TMOD also introduces the key roles and functionaries for that session. **Prepared Speeches:** A significant portion of the meeting is dedicated to prepared speeches. Members working through various projects in the Toastmasters education program deliver speeches based on their chosen projects. Each speech is evaluated by a designated evaluator who provides feedback on strengths and areas for improvement. **Table Topics:** Table Topics is a segment where impromptu speaking skills are tested. The Table Topics Master presents a series of short, unprepared speaking challenges or questions, and members or guests are invited to come to the podium and give a brief, improvised response. **Evaluations:** Following the prepared speeches and Table Topics segment, evaluators provide constructive feedback to speakers. These evaluations focus on content, delivery, body language, and time management. The goal is to help speakers improve their speaking skills. **Reports and Functionary Roles:** The meeting may include various functionary roles, such as the Timer, Grammarian, Ah-Counter, and others, who report on their observations and contributions to the session. These roles help members improve their language and time management skills. **General Evaluator:** The General Evaluator provides an overall assessment of the meeting, highlighting what went well and offering suggestions for improvement. They may also evaluate the evaluators' performance. **Awards and Recognitions:** Toastmasters sessions often conclude with awards and recognitions, including the Best Speaker, Best Evaluator, and Best Table Topics Speaker. These awards encourage members to strive for excellence in their speaking and leadership abilities. **Closing:** The meeting concludes with closing remarks from the Toastmaster of the Day, who may express gratitude to participants and encourage them to continue their Toastmasters journey. **Networking and Socialising:** After the formal meeting, members and guests often have the opportunity to network, socialise, and discuss their experiences in a more relaxed setting.

### ***This is a closed course that can only be booked and attended as a whole.*** ***So it’s best to join one of the other sMove! trainings beforehand – either on Thursdays in the park or online on Saturdays: [www.baerbelsinger.de/smove ](www.baerbelsinger.de/smove)*** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ### Sensing and Expanding 🌿 sMove! invites you to expand your sensations and ways of expression through the body. The movements are simple and playful – yet they go deep: by moving with awareness, you discover qualities within yourself that are often covered by habit or tension. ### The Body as a Container 🌀 The body is more than muscles and bones – it is a container of memories, energy, and possibilities. In sMove! training, we explore this potential through rhythm, new movements, and focused attention. Each movement becomes an opportunity to sense more clearly, to shift old patterns, and to unfold new qualities – vitality, calm, presence, joy. ### Clarity through Intention 🎯 What makes sMove! special is not performance or perfection, but the direct experience of your body paired with intention, precision, and letting go. When you allow your body to guide you, space opens: your mind becomes quieter, energy can flow, aliveness grows. sMove! strengthens you inside and out – with more flexibility, strength, and ease. ### Experiencing Community 🤝 In the group, connection arises. Everyone moves in their own way – and yet we resonate with the shared rhythm. This collective presence builds trust in your own strength, encourages curiosity, and makes it easier to try something new. ### Who is sMove! for? 🌍 sMove! is open to everyone – previous experience is recommended (feel free to ask). 15 sessions * **November 2025**: 11., 18. * **Dezember 2025**: 9., 16. * **Januar 2026**: 20., 27. * **Februar 2026**: 3., 10., 17., 24. * **März 2026**: 24., 31. * **April 2026**: 7., 14., 28. 💶 Fee Early Bird: 280€ Full package: **320 €**

Contact Impro Therapie Erlebe in dieser offenen tanztherapeutischen Gruppe die heilende Kraft der Berührung und wie sie uns in Bewegung bringt. Contact Improvisation ist eine Tanzform, in der es um Berührungen geht, die keine Absicht verfolgen. Es ist eine Einladung, in solche Berührungen hineinzuspüren und dieses Spüren in spontane Bewegung zu verwandeln. Was wird berührt, was möchte sich ausdrücken? So entsteht ein Dialog spürender Begegnung. Beziehungen zu anderen Menschen werden im bewegten Körper erfahrbar und finden gleichzeitig Ausdruck. Contact hilft uns, zu erleben, wie man mit anderen im Kontakt sein kann indem man mit sich selbst in Kontakt tritt—körperlich wie seelisch—und umgekehrt. Dies ist kein Contact Kurs. Anders als bei Contact Events bietet diese Gruppe einen geschützten Rahmen, zu erkunden, wie körperliche Berührung und Bewegung unser Selbst berühren und in Bewegung bringen können. Was sind die Resonanzen, wenn wir mit anderen und uns selbst in Kontakt treten? Welchen Hindernissen begegnen wir? Wie können wir Neues wagen? Erfahrung mit Contact Impro oder Tanz ist nicht notwendig, nur die grundsätzliche Offenheit, Berührung und Bewegung zu erkunden. Wir legen besonderes Augenmerk darauf, in welchen Grenzen jede Person Berührung zulassen möchte. Diese Gruppe ist für Dich, wenn Du Deine eigenen Themen im Kontakt mit anderen und durch Deinen bewegten Körper in einem sicheren Raum erkunden und bearbeiten möchtest. **Wo**: Colibri-Studio, Karl-Marx-Str. 149, Berlin (U Karl-Marx-Str.) **Wann**: Dienstags, 20:00-21:30, ca. 14-tägig, genaue Termine erfragen. Teilnahme nur nach vorheriger Anmeldung: info@jochenkleres.de

Französisch sprechen und anwenden mal anders! Wir entdecken die französisch Sprache und Kultur mit den Augen französischer Literaten. Ideal für frankophile Leute mit Hang zur beaux-arts. Texten sind vorhanden

Do you like to play football - but relaxed and not with competitive or aggressive players? Are you a bit lazy, a bit old, a bit unfit or not so talented? Are you tired of insecure bros who only want to show off their skills? **Then [Lousy & Lazy Football](https://www.instagram.com/landlsc/) is the right thing for you!** We are a group of friendly people who just want to have a relaxed kick. All genders, ages (+18) and nationalities welcome. **Feel free to join the waitlist even if it seems long - sometimes we make the event larger and play on two pitches (24 players, four teams) or even three pitches (36 players, six teams), depending on demand.** Note: **We do not allow high-studded football boots during our sessions.** To avoid injuries, we only play with "Multinocken" (multistuds) or shorter. Please have a look here: [link](https://www.11teamsports.com/de-de/fussballschuhe/multinocken/). Rules for lazy & lousy football 1. **Don’t be competitive** 2. **No hard tackling/sliding challenges** 3. **Support new players by giving them the time and space to play the ball** 4. **Don’t dribble past multiple players (trying to take on a player is fine but at no point should you be trying to dribble past multiple players).** 5. **Don’t close down the defenders too quickly. Give the team a chance to play the ball out.** 6. **Rotate the goalkeeper** 7. **Be a teamplayer** Waiting list: This meetup is for members of the Lousy & Lazy Sport Club. If you want to try out our lousy & lazy sport events, you can do a trial run (Probetraining).

Join the First Circle of Moms in Berlin & Brandenburg here 💛; linktr.ee/supermom_inc Motherhood can be beautiful and fulfilling… and also incredibly demanding. This meetup is a small, relaxed space for moms to connect, share experiences, and support one another without pressure or expectations. Whether you’re looking to meet other moms nearby, have meaningful conversations, exchange ideas, or simply take a break and be around people who understand this stage of life, you’re very welcome. There’s no formal agenda, just real conversations and a chance to build genuine connections. Because we want to keep the atmosphere personal and comfortable, the group will be intentionally small. If you’re interested, feel free to join us; we’d love to meet you. Feel free to bring your child if that makes it easier for you.

**Gesunde Snacks für Kinder – einfach & alltagstauglich** *Familien-Kochworkshop mit kurzem Vortrag* Viele Snacks für Kinder sind entweder zu süß, zu stark verarbeitet – oder einfach nicht wirklich sättigend. In diesem Workshop zeige ich, wie gesunde Snacks im Alltag wirklich funktionieren: einfach, schnell und so, dass Kinder sie gerne essen. Wir starten mit einem kurzen, praxisnahen Impuls für Eltern: → Was macht einen Snack wirklich ausgewogen? → Worauf kommt es im Alltag an (ohne komplizierte Regeln)? Anschließend gehen wir direkt in die Praxis und bereiten gemeinsam drei einfache Snacks zu, die sich gut in den Familienalltag integrieren lassen. Der Workshop ist bewusst niedrigschwellig gehalten – es geht nicht um Perfektion, sondern um umsetzbare Lösungen. **Für wen geeignet** Für Eltern, Großeltern und Familien mit Kindern – besonders für alle, die gesunde Ernährung entspannt in ihren Alltag integrieren möchten. **Organisatorisches** Mittwoch, 8. April 2026 14:30 – 16:00 Uhr Familienzentrum Die Brücke Gensinger Straße 58, 10315 Berlin **Wichtiger Hinweis zur Anmeldung** Die Teilnahme ist **nur nach vorheriger Anmeldung per E-Mail** möglich. 👉 Bitte melde dich verbindlich an unter: **bruecke@kinderdorf-berlin.de** Erst nach Bestätigung durch das Familienzentrum ist dein Platz gesichert.

Life gets heavy sometimes — and we believe no one should carry that weight alone. This discussion circle is a supportive space where we gather to speak openly about our struggles, mental health journeys, and personal challenges — without fear of judgment. Whether you’re facing anxiety, burnout, grief, or just feeling lost, this is a time for real talk, real people, and real healing. 
We’re not therapists or professionals — we’re humans navigating life, just like you. What we offer is empathy and understanding. 
What to expect:
• Respectful conversations
• Listening without pressure to fix
• Optional prompts to get things flowing
• A calm, welcoming environment 
Come as you are. You don’t need to have it all figured out. 
The event takes place every 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month and is donation based. If possible, please consider helping us cover the location and Meetup expenses with a small contribution. :) Paypal (Friends&Family): mhps.berlin@gmail.com

If you are navigating life with both being a person of color and being neurodivergent—this sharing circle is for you. **Details** 📅 Wednesday, 8th of April 2026 🕕 18:30 - 20:30 📍 Meeting Room in BIW\*oC Rising https://maps.app.goo.gl/Y6wTvMXV4rCUkgzP8 🎟️ Free but a donation for the space is highly appreciated. **Community disclaimer:** This circle is organized entirely by neurodivergent volunteers who contribute their time, energy, and resources to create this space. They deserve patience and kindness. **What happens here** * We gather. We share. We listen. * Stimming, fidgeting, moving around, stepping out for a break, is always welcome. * For this first event, we will try to open with a round of introductions. If you feel called to, you can share three words that represent your neurodivergent and BIPOC life. * There is no pressure to share if you can't think of any or would rather just pass. * After we hear the words, we can see what themes emerge and let the conversation flow from there. * The format of this event can be changed and discussed the further we go with this sharing circle. **This space is for you if:** * You're a person of color—Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, Middle Eastern, mixed-race, or any marginalized racial or ethnic identity. * You're neurodivergent—diagnosed, self-identified, questioning, or just know your brain works differently: ADHD, autistic, dyslexic, AuDHD, or any other neurotype. **Community Agreements** * **This is a space to heal, not to harm.** Experiencing racism is painful and real. That pain is welcome here. However, this is not a space to express sexist, misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, colorist, or any other discriminatory attitudes toward any person or group—regardless of their identity. We all carry wounds. But those wounds do not give us permission to wound others. * **Confidentiality:** What is shared in the circle stays in the circle. This helps us build trust. * **No Fixing:** This is a space for sharing experiences, not for giving unsolicited advice, diagnosing others, or trying to "fix" someone. We are here to witness and support, not to problem-solve. * **Content Warnings:** If you plan to share something that involves heavy topics like trauma, self-harm, or graphic discrimination, please give a brief warning before you start (e.g., "I'd like to share something about a difficult experience..."). This allows others to gently step out or prepare themselves. * **Respect the Space:** Please be mindful and respectful of the venue that hosts us. **About the Space Hosting Us** "BIWOC\* Rising is a Berlin-based intersectional organization for Black, Indigenous, and Women\* of Color, as well as trans, intersex, and non-binary people of color. It provides a safer workspace, socal club, networking opportunities, and its current project, EquiNet, which offers workshops and events to support members’ social, professional, and economic empowerment. The organization aims to build community, challenge systemic discrimination, and strengthen opportunities for marginalized groups through inclusive spaces." **Learn more about BIWOC\* Rising**: https://biwoc-rising.org/ **We can't wait to share space with you.**
