**Kurdish Dance - Queer Bridges** with ***Yada Barzan*** for **LGBTQIA+ Queer Migrants** **[Free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w21-2026)** 🔵 Rooted in ancient traditions, Kurdish dance is a collective practice where dancers connect, support, and move as one. Present in joy, grief, and struggle, it carries cultural memory and layered meaning; embodying identity, history, and resistance. **Queer Bridges: Forging connections and providing resources for LGBTQIA+ people with experiences of migration and/or displacement.** Queer people with experiences of migration and/or displacement in Berlin often face unique challenges in their daily lives that can limit their access to supportive communities and inclusive environments. With the support of the **Deutsche Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, we have developed the Queer Bridges program to overcome these barriers. We provide resources, networking and support in a welcoming environment for queer immigrants and refugees through our special program. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging to the local LGBTQIA+ community, enabling smooth integration and an improved quality of life for queer folks with experiences of migration and/or displacement. ✅ Our **Queer Bridges** program will continue to evolve and we are always happy to hear about your needs. If you are interested, you can send us an e-mail to stay informed about further updates. **General Information** **Participants**: This workshop is for all who identify as LGBTQ+ and have experienced migration and/or displacement. If you don’t share these experiences but are interested in joining please reach out to us first to see if space is available. We ask that all participants respect the program’s core focus and contribute to fostering an open respectful space. **Registration**: This event has limited spots available. Registration through our website is therefore required. **Language**: English **Cost:** The event is free of charge. 🔵 **Kurdischer Tanz- Queer Bridges** mit ***Yada Barzan*** fur **LGBTQIA+ Queere Migranten** ##### Kostenlos mit[ ](https://wearevillage.org/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w19-2026/)[Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w20-2026/) Verwurzelt in alten Traditionen ist kurdischer Tanz eine kollektive Praxis des Verbindens und gemeinsamen Bewegens. Er begleitet Freude, Trauer und Widerstand und trägt kulturelles Gedächtnis; ein Ausdruck von Identität, Geschichte und gelebtem Widerstand. **Queer Bridges: Verbindungen schaffen und Ressourcen für LGBTQIA+ Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung bereitstellen.** Queere Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung in Berlin sehen sich in ihrem täglichen Leben oft mit besonderen Herausforderungen konfrontiert, die ihren Zugang zu unterstützenden Gemeinschaften und integrativen Umgebungen einschränken können. Mit Unterstützung der **Deutschen Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, haben wir das Programm Queer Bridges entwickelt, um diese Hürden zu überwinden. Wir bieten Ressourcen, Vernetzung und Unterstützung in einem einladenden Umfeld für queere Migrant\*innen und Geflüchtete durch unser spezielles Programm. Unser Ziel ist es, ein Gefühl der Zugehörigkeit zur lokalen LGBTQIA+ Community zu fördern und damit eine reibungslose Integration sowie eine verbesserte Lebensqualität für queere Menschen mit Migrations- und/oder Fluchterfahrung zu ermöglichen. ✅ Unser **Queer Bridges** Programm wird sich stetig weiter entwickeln und wir freuen uns auch jederzeit von Euren Bedarfen zu hören. Bei Interesse könnt ihr uns eine E-Mail schicken, um über weitere Aktualisierungen informiert zu bleiben. **Hinweise** **Teilnehmende**: Dieser Workshop richtet sich an alle, die sich als LGBTQIA+ identifizieren und Migrations- und/oder Fluchterfahrung erlebt haben. Wenn ihr diese Erfahrungen nicht teilt, aber dennoch an einer Teilnahme interessiert seid, meldet euch bitte zuerst bei uns, um zu klären, ob ein Platz frei ist. Wir bitten alle Teilnehmenden, den Schwerpunkt des Programms zu respektieren und dazu beizutragen, einen offenen, respektvollen Raum zu schaffen. **Anmeldung**: Für dieses Event stehen begrenzte Plätze zur Verfügung. Eine Registrierung über unsere Website ist daher erforderlich. **Sprache**: Englisch **Kosten**: Die Teilnahme ist kostenlos.

**💶 Wertschätzungsbeitrag: 10-20 Euro (nach eigenen Möglichkeiten)** **Du möchtest Deine Freundschaften, Partnerschaft & Arbeitsbeziehungen verbessern? Dieser Worskhop kann ein großer Schritt dazu sein.** Beziehungs- und Bindungstypen sind ein weit verbreitetes Modell, um typisches Verhalten in verschiedensten Beziehungen erklären. Warum klammert jemand? Warum Drama? Warum Rückzug? Warum Kälte? Warum Unsicherheit, Nervosität und Ärger? --- und wie sieht eine sichere & gute Beziehung aus (und fühlt sich an). Die Annahme: Ereignisse der frühen Kindheit & der Erziehungsstil unserer Eltern prägen, wie wir als Erwachsene unsere Partnerschaften, Freundschaften & Arbeitsbeziehungen leben. Für manche gut. Für manche weniger gut. Ich setze mich mit den Beziehungstypen auseinander, weil ich glaube, dass sie einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf die Gestaltung von Freundschaften haben (und auf Liebesbeziehungen sowie menschliche Beziehungen jeglicher Art). Dabei habe ich entdeckt, dass ich oft einen vermeidenen Beziehungsstil habe - ich weiche lieber aus, trenne mich oder spreche Probleme nicht an, weil ich wahrscheinlich in meiner Kindheit aus unterschiedlichen Ereignissen gelernt habe... dass bringt eh nichts, ich kann anderen nicht vertrauen, das macht man nicht, meine Bedürfnisse sind nicht wichtig, usw. In der Auseinandersetzung mit den Beziehungs- / Bindungstypen habe ich bemerkt, wie gut es mit tut, mit anderen mich darüber auszutauschen. Weil: * Ich bin nicht allein. * Ich lernen die Gefühle anderer kennen * Ich entwickle ein gutes Gefühl für die anderen Beziehungsstile (nicht nur meinen) * Ich löse das Thema für mich Schritt für Schritt - und werde immer sicher in meinen Bindungen & Beziehungen. In eine Workshop-Beschreibung zu schreiben, dass ich mich oft beim vermeidenden Beziehungsstil entdecke... ist kein Vermeiderverhalten mehr 😊. Halleluja! . **🎁 Das kannst erwarten** Ich lade Dich zu diesem Workshop ein, damit Du einen weiteren Schritt Richtung mehr Leichtigkeit & Ehrlichkeit in Beziehung gehen kannst. Ich werde eine kleine Einführung zu den Bindungsstilen geben - und dann steht der Austausch miteinander im Mittelpunkt: * Was sind Situationen, die mich triggern? * Wie geht es mir dann? * Wie reguliere ich mein Nervensystem? Meine Erfahrung ist: Austausch & Offenheit hilft, mit sich selbst und anderen relaxter zu werden. . Ein Link oder ein Buch zur Vorbereitung findest Du weiter unten. Es wäre gut, wenn Du eines von beiden bereits gelesen hättest oder von anderer Seite Vorwissen zu den Bindungstypen / Beziehungstypen hast. . . **⏰ Die Türen sind offen ab 18:15 Uhr. Komm am besten schon 18.15 Uhr** Mantel aufhängen, Toilette, eine Runde schwatzen und los ... . **❓ Darf ein zweites Mal kommen?** Ja, sehr gern. Ich halte es sogar für sinnvoll, mehrfahr zu kommen, wenn Dir der Workshop gefallen hat: Das Thema vertiefen, die eigenen Beobachtungen aus den letzten Wochen verarbeiten und sich mit neuen & alten Bekannten über das Thema weiter austauschen. 💬 **Agenda** 18:15 Uhr - Doors Open & Ankommen 18:30 Uhr - Start des Workshops * Einführung, Vorstellung * Kleines Kennenlernen * Einführung in das Thema durch mich * Verständnisfragen * Verschiedene Austauschrunden mit Vertiefungsfragen (der größte zeitliche Anteil) * Offene Fragen 21:30 Uhr - Ende . Zwischendurch machen wir eine kleine Pause. . Tausche Dich mit Gleichgesinnten über ein wesentliches Thema Deines Lebens aus. Du kannst immer wählen, mit wem Du Dich in welcher Tiefe unterhalten möchtest. Dein Gegenüber natürlich auch :). Nein heißt nein, Ja heißt Ja 🤗 . **🏠 Der Veranstaltungsraum** * Wir haben einen wunderschönen Raum im Kieztreff in Berlin Mitte (mit sauberen Toiletten!). * nähe Hackescher Markt. Sehr gut mit den Öffis zu erreichen. * Wenn Du vor Ort ankommst, ist alles ausgeschildert. . **🎒 Das bringst Du mit ...** * Etwas zu trinken (z.B. deine Wasserflasche, keinen Alkohol!) * Wenn Du magst: Zettel und Stift. * Du solltest satt sein und vorher gegessen haben * Bargeld für den Wertschätzungsbeitrag (10-20 Euro) . 📋 **Kann ich mich vorbereiten?** Ja! Vielen Menschen sind die Beziehungstypen bekannt. Wenn Du etwas Grundwissen hast, ist das sehr nützlich für den Workshop. Ansonsten empfehle ich diesen Link zu lesen: Link: [Welcher Beziehungstyp bin ich?](https://chrisbloom.de/blog/welcher-beziehungstyp-bin-ich-mit-test/) Dieses Buch ist eine sehr gute Einführung in den Workshop. Der Workshop wird sich daran orientieren: * **[Buch: Warum wir uns immer in den falschen verlieben](https://amzn.to/498A9js) (Werbung, Amazon-Link)** [Werbung: Als Amazon-Partner verdiene ich an qualifizierten Verkäufen.] Das Buch orientiert sich an Liebesbeziehungen, die Erkenntnisse sind meiner Meinung nach aber auf alle menschliche Beziehungen anwendbar. 🚫 **Was ist der Workshop nicht:** Der Workshop ist kein therapeutisches Angebot. Dafür bin ich nicht ausgebildet (bisher noch nicht mal im Selbststudium). Wenn Du aufgrund der Erkenntnisse beim Lesen des Buches, der Links oder der Gespräche auf dem Workshop zum Ergebnis kommst, dass eine Therapie für Dich sinnvoll sein kann, dann wäre das ein richtig guter Schritt. . 💫 **Warum der Workshop gut für Dich ist** * Ich glaube: Niemand ist perfekt. (und gleichzeitig deshalb genau richtig 🙂) * Ich glaube, dass jeder in wenigstens minimaler Form manchmal Arten von unsicheren Bindungsverhalten zeigt * Gleichzeitig wird jeder im Leben mit Menschen zu tun haben, die ein unsicheres Bindungsverhalten zeigen. . Mit sich selbst und anderen reflektiert umgehen zu können, finde ich eine zentrale Fähigkeit im Leben. . Ich finde, dass gute menschliche Beziehungen sind der zentrale Schlüssel zu einem erfüllten Leben sind (das finden laut Jacobsstudie übrigens 85 Prozent der Menschen in Deutschland). . Die Bindungstypen / Bindungsverhalten sind meiner Meinung nach ein zentrales Modell, um gute menschliche Beziehungen führen zu können. . 🧑🏼 **Mehr über mich:** Ich forsche seit 5 Jahren zu guten Freundschaften, wie man diese aufbaut und vertieft. Du erfährst mehr über mich auf [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de).
