Frisbee + New Friends (20s & 30s!)

Sat, Nov 21, 7:00 PM

From Gist IRL SF

**RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/1jEjYRrr6HJc272pPqGh **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later** This is the best place to meet new friends! Let's start the weekend off right ;) You're guaranteed to meet at least 10 new people here! And that's because we do speed-friending, where you meet someone new every 8 minutes! This Saturday, join me for throws at the park. We will kick things off with about an hour of 1-1 chats to meet other active locals, then after we chat, the real fun begins. You'll choose the people you clicked with best, grab a disc, and we'll head out to an open meadow to play frisbee together. By midday, you will be out on the green grass running around, laughing, and tossing a disc with a brand new crew. Whether this bunch becomes your regular weekend frisbee crew or it is just a fantastic way to spend a single morning outside, you are going to leave feeling energized. The Plan: - 11:00AM: Check-In. Follow the link to set up your quick profile on your phone. - 11:05AM - 12:25PM: One-on-One Rounds. The app pairs you for focused chats. Find out who shares your playful energy, weekend park vibe, and love for outdoor games. - 12:25PM+: Form Groups & head over to an open meadow together and start tossing a frisbee. Reconnect with your favorite matches, gather a squad of 4-6, and walk right out onto the field so your group can start your game today. The whole goal today is to go straight from meeting new people into playing a real game, setting us up perfectly for future weekend frisbee games and casual park hangouts. And when you are ready to plan the next throw, you can easily stay in touch with your new group through the app without ever needing to swap phone numbers. **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/1jEjYRrr6HJc272pPqGh **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later**

Bay Area Singles Relational Lab - Facilitated Connection Experience

Mon, Nov 16, 2:00 AM

From Founders Running Club :: San Francisco

**Tired of dating apps and conversations that go nowhere?** **What if meeting new people could actually feel good again?** When we started Conscious Connections, I interviewed hundreds of people about dating and connection. And I kept hearing the same things: *"I'm tired of swiping and having the same conversations over and over."* *"I just want to meet someone I can have a real connection with."* *"Dating feels so superficial these days."* *"I'm exhausted by dating apps. I want to meet people in real life."* Underneath all those frustrations was the same longing: to meet people we can be ourselves with. To laugh, feel at ease, have meaningful conversations, and discover where a genuine connection might lead. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁. Two hours that give you energy instead of taking it. Playful, warm, alive. People often leave surprised by how quickly strangers can feel human, honest and real again. 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗦𝗩𝗣. 👉 $59 to book your place, and hear from people who've been: [https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join) Each booking is a place in our monthly Relational Lab. Your session date, time and Zoom link arrive by email within 24 hours. Booking close to a session? Go for it. We'll do our best to place you in it, or you'll join the following one. 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜𝗦 𝗥𝗘𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗟𝗔𝗕? A guided connection experience for singles who want more honest, playful, emotionally intelligent interaction. Less performance. Less pressure. Far less small talk. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝘆𝗼𝘂. It's a facilitated relational container rooted in psychology, emotional intelligence, attachment work, social dynamics, nervous system awareness and real-world human connection, made practical enough that you can actually live it instead of reading another 50 books about it. 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗛𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗦 \- Two hours of live\, guided connection games from your own couch \- Cameras on\, everyone present: you laugh\, play\, move and engage \- Facilitated in real time by Eloah\, with 15 years of experience\, and shaped around whoever is there \- An optional in\-person gathering afterward for those who join the session\, where applicable \- A WhatsApp thread to stay connected\, where applicable 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗧𝗔𝗞𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗬𝗢𝗨 \- The felt experience of being fully yourself with people you just met \- Relational tools you carry into dates\, friendships\, family and every room you walk into \- For some\, new friends\, a whole new circle\, even a partner\. We've seen all of it grow from here\. 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝗕𝗘 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗜𝗙 \- You value growth\, and you want it to feel good\, fun and playful \- You'd rather experience something than just consume more content \- You're craving social spaces with more depth \- You want deeper connection without forced intimacy \- You're open to meeting people in a more intentional way 𝗤𝗨𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦 𝗣𝗘𝗢𝗣𝗟𝗘 𝗔𝗦𝗞 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀 𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻? For 2 hours, you step into a parallel world where strangers stop feeling like strangers. We play connection games designed to drop the small talk, meet our common humanity, and exhale into the ease of being yourself with others. For some, it's the first time they've ever felt this. You're in control at all times, choosing your edges: playful and light, or bold and deep. Often, the lighter we play, the deeper it gets. We've seen people make lifelong friends, meet partners, even heal their relationship with a parent. It isn't therapy. It's what becomes possible when a space is held this well. 𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗭𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲? Neither would we, if the only calls we'd been on were meetings that drag on or webinars where someone talks at you. This is the opposite. Everyone's camera is on, everyone's playing, and you feel connected within minutes. Facilitated with mastery, online is as powerful as being in the room. We know, because we've run both for years. You come exactly as you are, from your own couch, with no outfit, no commute and no awkward entrance. Most people leave lighter than they arrived. 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗜 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻? After the online session, you're invited to an optional gathering in person, where applicable. It's your chance to practice what you've learned out in the world, without the small talk. Eloah chooses the place and time with care, based on who was present, the weather, what's happening in the city that day, and sometimes what the group discovered about each other's passions and hobbies. 𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻? The tools are yours for life. You'll notice them on your next date, in your next hard conversation, at your next dinner with friends. People come back months later and tell us how differently they now walk into a room. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘀? Dating apps are a tool. Connection games are a tool, too. What matters is how they're designed, how we use them, and the intention we bring. Here, you're among people who chose to show up with curiosity and a genuine desire to connect. Instead of trying to impress someone through a profile or a string of messages, you experience one another in real time. You discover how people listen, laugh, express themselves, navigate vulnerability and respond to others. And you get to notice how you feel in their presence. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴? It's slow dating, and the long game is the shortcut. Instead of pairing you up, rotating you and praying for chemistry, most games are played with everyone together, so you meet each other as humans first. Many people leave with new friends, some with a whole new circle, and if more develops over time, it grows from a solid foundation. On a first date, people show their best face. Here, you see the full face, and your chances of falling for a real, imperfect human are much higher. 𝗜𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮 𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝘅𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁? This is a connection-to-self-first space. Many people who ask this have had experiences where things got sexual or romantic too fast, and it felt forced. Sexual energy is one of the most powerful energies there is, and it deserves respect. Here, you connect to all of yourself first, and then to others as whole people. You learn relational frameworks you can play as gently or as boldly as you choose. Some people arrive mending a broken heart, unsure they even want to date again. Others arrive ready for something wild and alive. Nothing is pushed on you, and you move at your own pace. 𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀? People who want more depth in how they meet others. Some are new to the city and rebuilding their circle. Some are coming out of a long relationship and wondering where to start. Many have full, busy lives and still want more. Plenty are introverts who would never walk into a bar mixer. What they share: curiosity, an open heart and readiness to meet their equals. 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝘆 𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲? Sessions are open to every adult age, so who's there changes from month to month. What people share is readiness for real connection, and that tends to matter far more than a birth year. Many say their most surprising connection was with someone they'd never have swiped on, or who would never have swiped on them. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲? Groups are kept small by design, so you're never just watching a screen full of talking heads. Connection deepens when there's room for every voice. This is also where you meet your city's introverts: you thought you knew everyone, and they've been hiding. If you happen to be the only one on the day, it becomes a private 1:1 session with Eloah, normally $319, at no extra cost to you. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 $𝟱𝟵? You're investing in an experience most people never have, held by a facilitator with 15 years of experience. One game, one moment, can change the trajectory of your life. We keep it as affordable as possible so this glimpse of what's possible can reach everyone. We tend to overestimate the cost of doing something, and underestimate the cost of not doing it. Each session takes its own shape with whoever is present. Sometimes expansive. Sometimes intimate. 𝗕𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲. 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲𝘁. Free to RSVP. 👉 $59 to book your place: [https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join)
