Improv Games in Tiergarten (outdoors & in English)

Sat, Jul 4, 12:00 PM
From Social Adventures in Berlin
4.7

We improvise all the time! ​It's coming up with a story to tell someone. Making up an excuse when you are late to work. Having to do a presentation when you have lost all your notes. Improvising is also coming up with a joke or a pickup line on a date. ​Improvising can be challenging, but it can also be fun. It involves spontaneity and creativity. Whether or not you think you are good at improvising doesn't matter. You may surprise yourself. So join us for an afternoon of improv games where we certainly will have fun! ​--- ​The event will start at 14:00 and last up to 2 hours, with a 10-minute break in between. You'll find us in Tiergarten at the following spot: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/dzXw9NXMLAjBqBUE9](https://maps.app.goo.gl/dzXw9NXMLAjBqBUE9) The communication before, during, and after the event will happen in our Telegram group: [https://t.me/czc_berlin](https://t.me/czc_berlin). As soon as we are at the location, we'll post a selfie there and guide you if necessary.

Join me for Calisthenics Classes! (Beginners)

Join me for Calisthenics Classes! (Beginners)

Wed, Jul 15, 5:00 PM
From Berlin Walks, Hikes, Trips, Yoga and more
4.8

Join me for my **Beginner Calisthenics Class** every Wednesday at 7pm at a park (check the location below) and learn how to build strength, flexibility and confidence using just your bodyweight. My name is Maroof 👋 and I’ve been practicing calisthenics for the last 6 years. I love this sport because I’m fascinated by the incredible movements the human body can achieve and I believe calisthenics connects people, builds communities and is one of the most sociable forms of fitness out there. In this class, we’ll cover the fundamentals like push-ups, squats and core exercises and also dive into the basics of more advanced movements such as the planche, front lever, back lever and freestyle calisthenics, all in a fun, supportive environment where you can progress at your own pace. We also play a quick team game at the end when there are a lot of participants. Winners get a small prize 😁 No experience needed, just bring comfortable clothes, some water and a positive attitude. **Price:** Free. This will be a recurring event every Wednesday unless stated otherwise. **Disclaimer:** Please keep in mind that you are responsible for your own safety. Only confirm if you are attending the event, and update your RSVP accordingly. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out!

Please register on Luma. 👆** Everyone's talking about AI replacing jobs. But here's what AI can't replace: the human desire to create. Creativity is what makes us uniquely human — it's a muscle, and like any muscle, it needs training. And this, our second session, is about giving a character a face, a mood, and a story. [KREATIV UNTAPPED](https://www.kreativuntapped.com) is a creative playground born in Berlin, where anyone can unlock their creativity, activate new synapses, and meet people through making. Each session pairs a working practitioner with a different creative discipline and gives you a hands-on way to try it — this time, character design with Berlin street artist [DARED](https://www.the-berliner.com/art/berlin-street-artist-dared-french-bulldog-fox-paste-up-graffiti/). No job title. No prior experience. Just the willingness to tap in. **This session — Character Design Untapped w/ DARED** [DARED](https://www.the-berliner.com/art/berlin-street-artist-dared-french-bulldog-fox-paste-up-graffiti/)'s work lives between urban art, storytelling and contemporary illustration. He's best known for his ongoing *Red Forest* narrative and its cast — Faye Rêverie, Phatty, Batsy and Bymo — found on walls, canvases and out in public space. See more of his work on Instagram: [@dared.artist](https://www.instagram.com/dared.artist/). ***How do you create a character with personality and real recognizability?*** Step by step, you'll build your own — from simple shapes to facial expression and body language, all the way to a short backstory. Along the way, DARED opens up his creative process and shows how the *Red Forest* characters came to life. Beginners and experienced drawers equally welcome. **What to bring** We'd love for you to bring your own materials — a sketchpad, pencils and an eraser, fineliners or markers. Drawing with tools you love makes all the difference. And if you can't, no worries: we'll provide A4 paper and a black pen for everyone. **Agenda** * 18:30 – 19:00 · Check-in * 19:00 – 19:15 · Intro — what [KREATIV UNTAPPED](https://www.kreativuntapped.com) is and why we're here * 19:15 – 20:15 · Hands-on character design session with DARED * 20:15 – 20:45 · Group sharing round — show your character, share its story, your takeaway * 20:45 – 20:50 · Wrap-up & what's next * 20:50 – 21:30 · Networking 📅 **Wednesday, 8 July 2026 · 18:30 – 22:00** 📍 **Thoughtworks Berlin · Revaler Str. 31 (Event Space), 10245 Berlin** *(walking distance from S Ostkreuz)* **— ADDITIONAL NOTES —** **Donation-based event** This event is donation-based — give what feels right.
