GYROTONIC®
GYROTONIC®
The GYROTONIC® (with equipment) and GYROKINESIS® (without equipment) methods were developed in the 1970s by Juliu Horvath, a professional Hungarian dancer who, after multiple injuries, sought a new approach to rehabilitation. This led him to create GYROTONIC®, an extraordinary discipline that combines elements of dance, yoga, swimming, and tai chi. In the GYROTONIC® method, exercise sequences consist of rhythmic, circular movements that flow seamlessly from one to the next, allowing the joints to move freely and naturally, without compression. GYROTONIC® is a unique and original method that stimulates the nervous system, tones the muscles, and improves balance, coordination, flexibility, and strength. The practice of GYROTONIC® is suitable for everyone, including those recovering from injuries who are looking for a new approach to rehabilitation. Each person can naturally adapt the exercises to their own physical condition and needs, so age or fitness level do not matter. The only goal is to regain agility and mobility, helping your body feel healthier and more balanced than ever. **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls. We provide access to hundreds of experiences that explore your passions and connect you with other event participants. **Check our website to learn more, and apply to join our community and events**: [lesamis.cc/apply](https://www.lesamis.cc/apply)

OSTELLO BELLO OLYMPIC GAMES
OSTELLO BELLO OLYMPIC GAMES
**Are you ready for the Milano–Cortina Winter Olympics? We’re not.** **That’s why we’ve created our very own Ostello Bello "Olympic" Games: a glorious display of questionable athletic skills and high-level nonsense.** While the "other" guys are busy with the official **Milano-Cortina 2026** ceremonies, we’re bringing the real "action" to the streets of Milan. From February 6th, we aren't gathering to break world records; we’re gathering to break the laws of physics. This isn’t about the podium; it’s about the survival of the chillest. Get your "winter" gear ready, because we’re about to prove that being an elite athlete is 10% talent and 90% just showing up for the vibes. **The Incentive:** Every participant gets a **shot**. The "legends" who actually win take home an **Ostello Bello T-shirt or a Drink**. ## The Disciplines: Official "Technical" Standards Every day from **7 PM to 9 PM**, our "athletes" will face a rotating schedule of these elite winter disciplines: ### 1\. Air Hockey: The Wrist\-Flick Battle A high-speed duel where the only thing frozen is your gaze on the puck. * **The Goal:** Smash the plastic disc into the hole. * **Requirement:** Move your hand faster than your brain can process and celebrate every point like you’ve just secured a gold medal. ### 2\. Boxing\-Glove Beer Pong: The Clumsy Champion Challenge We took a classic and made it impossible by adding the "Yeti factor." * **The Twist:** You have to play wearing massive, padded boxing gloves. * **The Challenge:** Gripping a tiny ball with giant hands is the ultimate test of patience. Success here is statistically unlikely and basically a miracle. ### 3\. DIY Curling: The Professional Slide The most serious-looking sport in our program. We’ve replaced expensive stones with pots and ice with felt pads, but the tension is real. * **The Setup:** A "House" (target) taped on the floor and a "Hog Line" for the release. * **The Action:** Launch the pot while your teammates run alongside it with brooms, screaming *"Hurry! Hard!"* just like in the real tournaments. * **The Score:** Closest pot to the center wins. Clean floors are a bonus. ### BONUS DAY: The "Wildcard" Game The discipline is a mystery. Our local legends will choose the challenge. Expect the unexpected: and probably more shots. **AND REPEAT.**

Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

ZUMBA +... Aperitivo! - Sunday of Exercise, Fun and Connections
ZUMBA +... Aperitivo! - Sunday of Exercise, Fun and Connections
ENG Sunday afternoon in Milan, what’s the plan? Let’s recharge our batteries to get ready for a brand new week. Leave behind what’s past, take the best from it, and turn it into **pure energy** for this Sunday practice. Music will be the base of our body's movement and expression: the rythm will guide our steps and canalise our energies and emotions into something very creative and powerful. Bring a **sports towel** and **sport clothes and sneakers**. (there are changing rooms if you need them!) Don’t forget **water** to rehydrate — and your desire to recharge! We’ll meet outside **Dunamis Loreto – Gym of the Arts**. ***Suuuuper important: Please try to arrive in time, because once the class starts we won't even hear the bell ringing - you might risk to miss the event!*** And after the event, the sweetest part: let's choose a bar and have some drinks together to get the full Milanese experience with a typical Aperitivo! (not included in the participation fee) ITA Domenica pomeriggio a Milano, qual è il piano? Ricarichiamo un po' le batterie per prepararci al meglio a una nuova settimana. Lasciamo ciò che è stato della settimana scorsa alle spalle, prendiamone il buono e trasformiamolo in **energia pura** per questa pratica della domenica. La musica sarà la base del movimento e dell'espressione del nostro corpo: lasceremo che sia il ritmo a guidare i nostri passi e a canalizzare le nostre energie ed emozioni in un momento di grande creatività e libertà espressiva Porta il tuo **asciugamano da sport** e **acqua** per reidratarti, **abbigliamento e scarpe sportivi** (ci sono gli spogliatoi, se devi cambiarti!) e... voglia di ricaricare le batterie! Ci troviamo fuori dalla **Dunamis Loreto - Palestra delle Arti.** ***Suuuuper importante: cerca di arrivare in orario, perchè una volta che inizia la lezione, non sentiamo più il citofono (e non c'è nessuno in reception per accoglierti)*** E dopo l'esercizio, la parte più dolce: non è la full experience Milanese se non c'è un Aperitivo di mezzo! (non incluso nella quota di partecipazione)
Brunch & Style: Scopri il tuo stile personale!
Brunch & Style: Scopri il tuo stile personale!
Ti sei mai chiestə qual è davvero il tuo stile? Quello che ti rappresenta, ti fa sentire a tuo agio e racconta chi sei, al di là delle mode del momento? Ho creato questo brunch proprio per rispondere a questa domanda, in modo leggero, conviviale e super piacevole 🥐☕ Durante l’evento faremo insieme un percorso di scoperta dello stile personale: ogni partecipante compilerà un questionario guidato che ci aiuterà a capire gusti, abitudini, esigenze e desideri legati all’abbigliamento e all’immagine. ✨ Cosa succederà durante il brunch? • brunch condiviso e chiacchiere in un’atmosfera rilassata • compilazione del questionario sullo stile personale • analisi delle risposte e individuazione del tuo stile di riferimento • consigli pratici su come valorizzarlo nella vita di tutti i giorni (outfit, capi chiave, vibe generale) Non serve “capire di moda” né avere uno stile già definito: questo evento è pensato proprio per chi vuole fare chiarezza, sperimentare e conoscersi meglio, senza giudizi e senza rigidità. Il brunch è aperto a tuttə, uomini e donne, e si svolgerà in un clima informale, accogliente e conviviale 💛 Un momento per mangiare bene, confrontarsi e uscire con più consapevolezza sul proprio stile. ISCRIZIONI AL SEGUENTE LINK: https://comehome.fun/events/696d3e33a951e3846b9c8b78 👉 Nota pratica: La consumazione del brunch è a carico del singolo partecipante e verrà scelta e pagata direttamente in loco. 🍳☕ ✨ Vieni per il brunch, resta per scoprire cosa racconta davvero il tuo stile.

Philosophy of Friendship: What are the bases of "friendship"?
Philosophy of Friendship: What are the bases of "friendship"?
As you may or may not know--I didn't until late last year--Aristotle wrote extensively on "friendship" in the Nicomachean Ethics. After 69 years the concept of friendship still creates questions and uncertainty. I had close friends in high school and for a few years after high school but our interests diverged and people moved all over the country so it was hard to maintain connections. * So if I/you haven't talked with a friend for several years, are you still friends? Are we friends who meet at Drunken Philosophy or Omnipresent Atheists? * Can you be friends with someone with whom you have virulently divergent political views? Sartre and Camus could not. * Aristotle regarded friendship as essential to a good life, not merely an added "bonus." Do you agree? * In the Nicomachean Ethics (Books VIII and IX), he claims that wealth and power are meaningless without friends. Trump has wealth and power but seems to have no real friends, but wealth and power seem meaningful to him in perverted ways. Can you have meaning in your life without friends? * Do men and women view and maintain friendships in different ways? * Aristotle categorizes friendship into three types, based on what forms the bond: * **Utility**: Based on mutual benefit, but this type is fragile and ends when the usefulness ceases. * **Pleasure**: Based on shared enjoyment (e.g., humor, hobbies). Common among youth but fades as interests change. * **Virtue (The "Complete" Friendship)**: Based on mutual respect for each other's character and goodness. You wish good for the other for their sake, not yours. * **Key Principles of "True" (Virtuous) Friendship:** * **Permanence**: Virtuous friendships last a lifetime whereas those based on utility and pleasure are fleeting. * **Reciprocity**: Requires mutual goodwill; secret or unreciprocated affection does not qualify. * **The "Second Self"**: A true friend is "another self"—their virtue helps you understand and improve yourself. * **Time and Intimacy**: Deep ("complete") friendships are few, built on time and shared experiences. * **Self-Love and Friendship:** * Good friendship starts with being a friend to yourself. * They distinguish shallow egoism (chasing honors) from real self-love (pursuing virtue). * A virtuous person’s pleasant self-company allows them to be a stable, good friend to others. * Aristotle argues that one's social circle ultimately reflects one's character—a view with striking relevance today. Well--the Drunken Philosophy social circle certainly reflects good character!
