What if your “inner child” wasn’t just a concept—but a vivid, living presence you can actually meet? In this talk, Sonja explores how inner child work unfolds during practices like holoptropic breathwork — where early imprints, unmet needs, and developmental trauma can emerge with clarity, emotional depth, and transformative potential. Going beyond traditional therapeutic models, we’ll explore how these experiences move through various layers of the psyche where different “inner children” and dimensions of the self may appear. Through real examples from holotropic sessions, this lecture sheds light on the healing intelligence of expanded states—and how they can help unravel deep relational patterns. 🌀 A blend of theory & lived experience 🌀 Space for dialogue 🌀 Short guided journey to meet your inner child Come with curiosity, leave with a deeper, more grounded perspective. After the talk, feel free to stay and connect with like-minded individuals in a relaxed atmosphere.

Gain tools that you can bring home for a healthy and mobile spine, even (and especially) if you think you have zero flexibility. **Why such a class in our Tango Immersion Weekend program?** Ever wondered why sometimes movement feels (or looks) stiff, forced or limited, and how to change it? Everything, from a comfortable embrace to any technique and popular figure you can think of in Tango, from simple to complex, functions smoother if you build some body awareness and set your spine free. This weekend we're focusing on the infinite world of spirals. They are one of the hidden structures that make movement feel fluid, connected and alive. This time I included a bonus lesson before the workshops start, helping you prepare your body for the weekend’s theme and gain tools that you can bring home for a healthy and mobile spine, even (and especially) if you think you have no flexibility. **No previous experience required.** Bring comfortable clothes and your own yoga mat or use the ones available at the studio. **Save your spot [here](https://jessicagerdel.com/tangoimmersion/#register) or send me a message to register** : contact@jessicagerdel.com Looking forward to seeing you there!

**Begegnungen jenseits von Small Talk** Es gibt Momente im Leben, in denen sich Fragen nicht mehr übergehen lassen. Zu Sinn. Zu Beziehungen. Zu Innerer Ruhe, Weisheit, Spiritueller Ganzheit. Zu dem, was wirklich zählt. Dieses Treffen bietet einen Raum, um diesen Fragen bewusst zu begegnen — in Verbindung mit dir selbst und im Austausch mit anderen. Mit echten Gesprächen, klarer Reflexion und einfachen, umsetzbaren Impulsen für den Alltag. Ein zentraler Bestandteil ist das, was ich **Soul Polishing** nenne: eine regelmäßige Praxis, mit sich selbst in Kontakt zu bleiben — und innere Balance, Ruhe und Stärke zu entwickeln. Nicht einmal. Sondern immer wieder — wie Zähneputzen. Ein erfülltes Leben entsteht nicht zufällig. Es entsteht durch Aufmerksamkeit, durch ehrliches Hinschauen und durch kleine, bewusste Schritte im Alltag. Du kannst selbstverständlich auch alleine kommen. Die Atmosphäre macht es leicht, in Kontakt zu kommen. Du entscheidest selbst, wie viel du teilen möchtest — Zuhören ist genauso willkommen. Der Abend verbindet Momente der Stille und innerer Relexion mit Austausch und Raum für Begegnung. Open end — für ein entspanntes Miteinander. Du gehst mit mehr Klarheit. Mehr Ruhe. Und einem stärkeren Gefühl, wieder näher bei dir selbst zu sein. Lass dich inspirieren, begegne Gleichgesinnten und genieße eine ruhige, herzliche Atmosphäre. Für Kaffee, Tee, kleine Snacks und Getränke ist gesorgt. Beitrag: € 15 pro Person (zur Deckung der Kosten für Raum und Verpflegung) Ich freue mich auf dich. Dieter Langenecker [www.langenecker.com](http://www.langenecker.com/) Schau' dir dazu dieses kurze **[Video](https://youtu.be/In8dqdxpCF4)** an.

Most AI meetups end up as just networking. **We’re different.** At **AI Tool Explorers Night \| Connect & Make New Friends**, you’ll: ✨ Walk away with a *real learning nugget* (a tool, workflow, or strategy you can use immediately) ✨ Connect with people who share your curiosity for AI, productivity, and automation ✨ Enjoy a fun, casual setting where new ideas and friendships spark naturally 👉 **Our promise:** every session delivers structure, substance, and takeaways you can use when you get home. ### 📅 Event Flow * **6:00–6:15 PM** → Arrivals & intros * **6:15–6:45 PM** → AI demo / learning nugget * **6:45–7:00 PM** → Q&A and group discussion * **7:00–8:00 PM** → Networking & contact sharing ⚡ Please hold networking until after the presentation so we can all learn together.

**ProductTank NoVA is back!** After a brief hiatus, we are relaunching the chapter with a format that cuts out the fluff and gets straight to the reality of building. Every product feed is flooded with AI hype right now, but what does it actually look like on the ground? Instead of a polished keynote, we are hosting **0 to 1 with AI: Real Product Talks**—a "Show & Tell" featuring 3–4 lightning talks focused on the intersection of AI and product. The framing for the talks is simple: *"Here is what I'm building, and here is what I'm stuck on."* We want to look at the messy, 0-to-1 reality of integrating AI into your workflows and products. *(Want to share what you are working on? Reach out! The bar is low-pressure, just 10–12 minutes to talk about a real AI problem you are trying to solve.)* **Agenda:** * **5:30 PM - 6:00 PM:** Doors open, networking, & name tags * **6:00 PM - 6:10 PM:** Welcome + Chapter Relaunch Intro * **6:10 PM - 7:30 PM:** Lightning Talks (Three 12-min talks + 5 mins Q&A each, with a 5-min stretch break) * **7:30 PM - 8:00 PM:** Open networking * **8:00 PM:** Soft close **Location & Logistics:** Herndon Fortnightly Library (Extended Hours Meeting Room) 768 Center St, Herndon, VA 20170 * **Parking:** We'll meet at the library, located just behind the Herndon Municipal Center. There is plenty of free public parking available around the municipal center. * **Metro & Bus:** Take the Silver Line to Herndon Metro Station, then connect via Fairfax Connector Route 921 or 950 to Historic Downtown Herndon. * **Driving (via VA-267/Dulles Toll Rd):** Take Exit 10 North (Centreville Rd, which becomes Elden St). Turn left onto Station St or Lynn St. * **Driving (via VA-286/Fairfax Co Pkwy):** Take the Elden St West exit. Turn right onto Lynn St. Looking forward to seeing everyone again and getting back to building!

NOVA Code and Coffee is an inclusive, informal, co-working session. People of all skill levels are invited. The concept is simple, bring a laptop and ideas, we'll provide the coffee and donuts! Here's how it works: 1. At 10:15 everyone introduces themselves and briefly describes what brought them to Code & Coffee today (project, homework, networking, etc) 2. For the rest of the day, folks work in the communal space on their projects providing one another help and conversation as needed. Oh and they usually drink coffee and tea too! That's it! Hope to see you there! **Location** Our hosts are the Fairfax City Economic Development Building: [10300 Eaton Pl, Fairfax, VA 22030](https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=d7298231ca2df594df822003f9a93517c788fceefe1fcbb79c8976696e341bc6JmltdHM9MTc1MzIyODgwMA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=4&fclid=180d0745-3b7f-69a1-23a2-11433a7868e5&u=a1L21hcHM_Jm1lcGk9MTA5fn5Ub3BPZlBhZ2V-QWRkcmVzc19MaW5rJnR5PTE4JnE9RmFpcmZheCUyMENpdHklMjBFY29ub21pYyUyMERldmVsb3BtZW50JnNzPXlwaWQuWU44NzN4ODI4MTk2Mjg0NTk5MDM4MTU0MiZwcG9pcz0zOC44NjE0NDYzODA2MTUyMzRfLTc3LjMwMjE3NzQyOTE5OTIyX0ZhaXJmYXglMjBDaXR5JTIwRWNvbm9taWMlMjBEZXZlbG9wbWVudF9ZTjg3M3g4MjgxOTYyODQ1OTkwMzgxNTQyfiZjcD0zOC44NjE0NDZ-LTc3LjMwMjE3NyZ2PTImc1Y9MSZGT1JNPU1QU1JQTA&ntb=1) Conference Room A- Large, Floor 1 This is a new venue for us, so give us some time to get more details about it. Driving is the best option. There is plenty of free on-site parking. Otherwise, we are a 22 minute bus from the Vienna Metro Station. Bicycling from Vienna is possible but difficult, though once you are here, there's a bike rack in the garage behind the building, and there's also a Capital Bikeshare dock 15 min walk away. **Sponsored by:** Thank you [Fairfax City Economic Development](https://gofairfaxcity.com/) and [Mason Enterprise Center](https://enterprise.gmu.edu/) for making this event possible! **Thank you so much to our wonderful sponsors!** Organized by [DMV Petri Dish](https://www.dmvpetridish.com/) **[Code of Conduct](https://github.com/NoVACodeCoffee/admin/blob/master/code-of-conduct.md):** We value the participation of each member of the community and want all attendees to have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience.

Join us for another session of our study group as we continue our coverage of the book Domain-Specific Small Language Models. In this session, we will attempt to cover Chapters 13 on "Creating end-to-end applications", which explores RAG and Agents and Chapter 14, on "Advanced Components for LLM Applications", which explores GraphRAG. This isn't just a lecture! Come ready to ask questions, share insights, and code along. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, this is the perfect opportunity to continue to learn together. If you plan to work with the code on your own laptop during the session, try and download the code from here https://github.com/virtualramblas/Domain-Specific-Small-Language-Models ahead of time.
