Hi Badminton Fans! Come and join us every Sunday for a fun session of badminton. There are usually 2 sessions to choose from. **This session is open to intermediate level players and above ONLY.** What that means is that you should be comfortable with short serves to the T, doubles rotations, and smashes. There is also an 11 am Open Session for players of all abilities. If you're unsure of your level, sign up for the 11am session to start or ask us! We will try our utmost to ensure that you play with people of similar levels. As such, we can and will restrict participation at this 12pm session at our discretion. **What Do You Need** Don't worry about equipment; racquets and shuttlecocks are provided, and there's no need for a badminton license or insurance. Just bring your indoor sports shoes, and a willingness to meet new friends and have lots of fun. There are changing rooms and showers. **Get There Early** Try and get there early to change and get warmed up so that we can start right on time. The courts are normally not being used before we play, so we can get a little extra time playing. **Registration & Payments** Registration is 14€ per person, and you can sign up via PayPal through this event page. For alternative payments, check for available slots on the event page first. Then, submit your payment via https://revolut.me/jonathwu3q with a description of which event you are signing up for and send the screenshot to one of us so that we can add you. *Please Note: If your name is **not** in the attendees list and you do not have confirmation from us, you will be turned away.* **Annual Membership Option** For regular players, there is the option to take out an annual membership. This costs 80€ for the first year and is renewable each year for 40€. This reduces the weekly registration fee to only 10€ per session. **No Refunds** In the case of a cancellation or no-show, there are no refunds. See you all on the court on Sunday. Happy badminton-ing! Kelvin (0603250357) and Vijay (0767341832) **FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS** 1. I don’t speak French, can I join? * Yes! We are an international group and everyone speaks English! 2. Are there still available slots? I can’t sign up! Help! * Check the bottom of the event page for availabilities. Once full, RSVPs will be closed. Sign up as early as possible because the events fill up very quickly. 3. I signed up, but I can’t make it! Can I get a refund? * No refunds for cancellations or no-shows. If you inform us early enough, we can try to find a substitute and refund you, but no guarantees. 4. Why can’t I get a refund? * We need a fixed number of participants to maximize court usage, court fees, team arrangements, and team rotations. Cancelations throw all of this off. 5. Do I need to bring anything? Water? Racquets? Birdies? * If you have your own racquet, that will be best! Otherwise, we have spare ones and we provide the shuttlecocks. Bring enough water to hydrate yourself.

Ce dimanche, dans le cadre du cycle général, nous avons voté pour : **1 - "Eugénie Grandet" d'Honoré de Balzac** "Dans la ville de Saumur vit modestement la famille Grandet : le père ex-tonnelier devenu richissime après de fructueuses spéculations, son épouse, sa fille Eugénie et Nanon la servante. Ces trois femmes vivent sous la terrible coupe du chef de famille, avaricieux maladif. Dans la ville, les beaux partis se disputent l'hypothétique main d'Eugénie dans l'espoir d'épouser la fortune. ...." Babelio **Pour la présentation d'auteur et le focus sur l'oeuvre :** \- Anissa va nous faire une présentation d'Honoré de Balzac pour donner du contexte à nos discussions ; \- Je fais le focus sur l'oeuvre\. ***Et n'oubliez pas !*** Partagez, si sous le souhaitez, quelques mots, passages et/ou citations qui vous ont marqués, touchés, et qui vous semblent importants à partager avec le groupe et les participants. Enfin, inscrivez-vous, je vous prie, uniquement si vous êtes sûrs d'être de la partie. Bien à vous tous, bonnes lectures, et à bientôt ! Jélila PS : la participation pour des raisons de frais liés à Meetup (240 euros par an) est de 2 euros par personne et par an. Elle reste facultative !

🍩🍰 Let's have a weekly deep talk in an intimate Parisian café, share a drink and have a good time with like-minded, lovely and chill people. 🥂☕ We're here to sip life in a childish, simple and non-serious way. 🙃 When was the last time you had a meaningful conversation? Or deepened your relationship with someone in your life? It's not easy to have a deep conversation. While small talk, which is typically casual and light-hearted, can help break the ice, it may not necessarily help you form a deep, emotional connection with someone. Whether it's with your friends, family, colleagues or romantic partners, having meaningful conversations is important for creating strong bonds. "Meaningful conversations help us understand ourselves and those around us better. They involve sharing important aspects of ourselves and actively listening, validating and connecting with others." We believe that a happy and healthy life is built on beautiful relationships and that loneliness kills us. That's it. It's not the number of friends that counts, it's the quality of the relationship. ✅ This group is adressed to : ● People who want to build deep, genuine and caring relationships in a small group that looks the same, where they feel comfortable and emotionally safe to talk emotionally and get intimate about anything in their lives. ● Simple, loving, kind, hyper/sensitive and lovely people who spend a lot of time in their bubble thinking about the meaning of life, passionate about personal development, philosophy, meaningful conversations, debates .... ⛔ Please don't subscribe if : ● You don't see yourself in the group's aims and beliefs. ● You're travelling for a short period of time and don't live or intend to live in Paris. ● You are not sure if you will be able to come, please update your status to allow others on the waiting list to join. An absence without notice will result in an irrevocable ban. Progress : ● ❗ For reservations, I'll send you a private Meetup message at least 5 hours before the meeting to confirm your reservation. If I don't receive a reply 2 hours before the meeting, I will send you a second message to let you know that you will be replaced by someone on the waitlist. ● 💚 We keep the session small, cosy and relaxed in a quiet place, prioritising regularity to encourage intimacy, connection, listening and speaking. (\~ 5/6 people) ● 🔖 On arrival, if you feel comfortable, you will be suggested to choose and associate several drawn Feelings and Needs cards to express how you really feel at the moment, to talk about ourselves and communicate effectively. ● 📝 The best way to make progress is to make the conversation easy and natural, with everyone making an effort to suggest and write down what you want to talk about. You can write down your favourite topics/questions before the meeting. The meeting is participative and invite everyone if you feel comfortable being a leader and a power of suggestion. Anyway, to keep the meeting running smoothly, I'll animate the meeting to make sure the conversation doesn't get wild or boring and I wouldn't hesitate to reframe people. In case of lack of inspiration we have a lot of deep conversation question card game which can help to find interesting questions. ● 🍕 (Not compulsory) After the meeting we can finish in a nearby restaurant for those who wish to relax or continue our conversation. Advice for a good moment : ● Leave your ego and mask at home, we are not here to impress anyone but to be ourselves with our strength, weakness, pride and shame. Come with an open/deep/emotional/complex thought and vulnerability. ● Ask open-ended questions and invite the other person to describe what a situation was like for them or how they felt. ● Don't hesitate to be vulnerable and share information about yourself if needed. Consider sharing personal information first to gain the other person's trust. ● Adopt an attitude of curiosity and genuine interest in what the other person is saying. Be thoughtful and try to put yourself in the other person's shoes so that you can see things from their perspective. Be truthful, caring and honest. ● Listen actively and ask follow-up questions. ● Be empathetic and offer emotional validation so that they feel seen and heard. It is forbidden to judge, but try to understand. ● ⏱ Be aware of your speaking time for Equally Speak. ● 🤫 Be aware never to provoke political or religious ideologies, but to accept differences of belief. Advice on non-violent communication can be given in the meeting to learn not to unintentionally hurt anyone when requested or needed. ● 🚨 Remember to maintain a safe, and benevolent environment. People who are considered to be disruptive, problematic or simply not in tune with the energy of the group will not be allowed to return. Finally, we're hug-friendly !!! 🤗

Un événement pour se retrouver entre femmes parisiennes qui écrivent ✍️
Faisons connaissance autour d’un thé ou café et écrivons chacune de notre côté, toutes ensemble ! ☀️ Au programme : 💬 Un petit tour de table ✍️ Un atelier d’écriture guidée ☕️ Un temps d’échange et de partage (si tu en as envie) À prévoir : 🗒️ / 💻 : carnet et stylo ou ordi (chargé) selon tes préférences!

Une maraude, c’est l’occasion d’aller à la rencontre des sans-abris, de partager un café, un peu de nourriture, des vêtements et des kits d’hygiène. Mais une maraude, c’est aussi et surtout oser se confronter à l’essentiel. Au-delà de nos préjugés, les femmes et les hommes vivant dans la rue n’ont plus de superflu : ni dans leurs possessions, ni dans leur manière d’être. Permettre la rencontre, et grâce à cette rencontre, partager ce qui nous rend humains : la dignité, le respect, l’écoute et la bienveillance. Sans rien attendre. Nos maraudes démarrent à 18h30 par un point permettant à toutes les équipes de se coordonner avant de partir à la rencontre des personnes vers 19h maximum. Nous finissons la maraude par une conclusion à La Passerelle à 21h30. **RDV à** ***La Passerelle*** \- 26 rue de Crussol \- 75011 Paris (Métro Oberkampf/République/Filles du Calvaire) Pour plus d'infos et pour participer : lapasserelle75011@gmail.com

**La nuit sera Calme - Romain Gary :** Comme dans La promesse de l'aube, Romain Gary parle ici de ce qu'il a vu, connu, aimé. De Vychinski à Groucho Marx, de Churchill à de Gaulle, des héros de la France Libre aux ambassades et à Hollywood, c'est une suite de rencontres, de portraits et d'événements, une chevauchée de coureur d'aventures qui semble avoir vécu plusieurs vies : aviateur, diplomate, écrivain, cinéaste, toujours passionné, toujours amoureux de l'éternel féminin. (Ed. Gallimard) **Le rivage des syrtes - Julien Gracq :** Aldo, à la suite d’un chagrin d’amour, demande une affectation lointaine au gouvernement d’Orsenna. S’ensuit alors la marche à l’abîme des deux ennemis imaginaires et héréditaires. Les pays comme les civilisations sont mortels. C’est à ce fascinant spectacle que Julien Gracq nous convie ici. Cette insolite histoire de suicide collectif laisse une subtile et tenace impression de trouble. (Ed. Corti) **Présentations d’auteurs** Pour contextualiser nos échanges, Alexandra présentera Romain Gary et Julien Gracq sera présenté par Annaïck. **Inscription** Pour pouvoir contribuer à la richesse des échanges, s’il vous plait ne vous inscrivez que si vous êtes certain de lire un des deux livres et d’être présent le jour de la rencontre. Au plaisir de se rencontrer, débattre et discuter autour d’un verre ! 📚☕️

**Our May novel is: *The Quiet Librarian* by Allen Eskens** **This month’s book is set in the 20th century and mixes historical fiction with suspense and thriller elements. It also centers on women’s stories and relationships. The novel is 368 pages in print or 8 hours and 12 minutes on audiobook.** Hana Babic is a quiet, middle-aged librarian in Minnesota who wants nothing more than to be left alone. But when a detective arrives with the news that her best friend has been murdered, Hana knows that something evil has come for her, a dark remnant of the past she and her friend had shared. Thirty years before, Hana was someone else: Nura Divjak, a teenager growing up in the mountains of war-torn Bosnia—until Serbian soldiers arrived to slaughter her entire family before her eyes. The events of that day thrust Nura into the war, leading her to join a band of militia fighters, where she became not only a fierce warrior but a legend—the deadly Night Mora. But a shattering final act forced Nura to flee to the United States with a bounty on her head\*\*.\*\*
