About us
It is more important than ever to make in person connections and have meaningful discussions. Social and critical thinking skills are on the decline while at the same time Intolerance and bigotry are riding high. IRL philosophy groups like Fight Club are the antidote !
Join us for round circle discussions that strengthen your rhetoric, flex your intellect and sharpen your wit !
Located in the idyllic basement of Christ Church Saint Laurence in the city. Topics at Fight Club vary, chat can run on and everyone has an equal voice.... though you may need to speak up to be heard. The session is chopped up with games, challenges and occasionally post match social drinks.
You are welcome here for making friends, expressing opinion and seeking perspective. "You decide your own level of involvement"

Crisis of the Humanities
The Belvedere Hotel, 482 Kent St, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia, Sydney, AU"No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world" - [Dead Poets Society]
In this session we discuss the problems affecting schooling and higher education leading to a decline in classics, critical thought and liberal arts education more broadly. Cut programmes, gutted curriculum, entire departments defunded. This trend in the 20th & 21st century is referred to as the "crisis of the humanities".
Just as John Keating and the Dead Poets railed against the rigidity of a failing education system and formed their society; so too Fight Club adopts the responsibility of democratizing philosophy where our institutions have broken down.
Join us for a night of deep discussion, drinks and intellectual sparring.
