**Stop overthinking and start playing!** 🌿 This session is a soft, safe space to practice being present and letting go of perfectionism. Please note: The main part of this session will be held in **German**.
**Raus aus dem Kopf, rein in den Moment!** 🎭 Hast du das Gefühl, oft festzustecken oder alles perfekt machen zu wollen? Improvisationstheater ist das perfekte Training gegen Procrastination und Perfektionismus. Hier lernst du, dem ersten Impuls zu vertrauen und mit dem zu arbeiten, was gerade da ist.
**Outdoor Vitality:** Training by the water is pure mindfulness. Nature helps calm your nervous system and instantly stops overthinking. Fresh air, open space, and improv—the perfect combo to clear your mind and boost your well-being.
**Bonus für Körper & Geist:** Das Training am Wasser ist Achtsamkeit pur. Die Natur hilft dir, das Nervensystem zu beruhigen und das Gedankenkarussell sofort zu stoppen. Frische Luft, weite Sicht und Impro – die beste Kombi, um mentalen Ballast einfach abzuwerfen.
**Was dich erwartet:** In einer wertschätzenden Atmosphäre nutzen wir einfache Spiele und Bewegung, um:
* 🌱 **"Ja, genau!" zu sagen:** Impulse annehmen statt sie zu zerdenken.
* ✨ **Fehler zu feiern:** Perfektionismus ablegen und spielerisch "scheitern".
* 🧠 **Präsenz zu stärken:** Ganz im Hier und Jetzt reagieren.
**Der Ablauf:** Wir starten mit 1,5 Stunden lockerer Gruppenspiele. Danach folgen sehr kurze, lustige Impro-Szenen.
**Wichtig:** Du machst nur das, worauf du Lust hast. Es ist ein Safe Space – keine Vorkenntnisse nötig!
👤 **Host:** Simon Brauner (über 70geleitete Trainings)
Das Event ist kostenlos. Wir freuen uns über Spenden.
The event is free. We welcome donations.

🌲Forest Hike from Vienna (with Uschi 🐼)
Outdoors are back! You are invited to hike with us **on Sunday 24th May** through the peaceful silence of the Green Prater's vast forest, walking all the way to its far side!
We meet at 13:55 outside the Praterstern station, on the side of the station that looks at the Prater. The exact **Meeting Point** is just outside the tunnel with the large bicycle parking. In Google Maps look for "Türkis Praterstern", we will wait in front of this restaurant. A funny little pug named Uschi will be with us!
We start hiking exactly at 14:00 and we mainly follow the Stadtwanderweg 9. After 2 hours of walk, we'll do a 30-minute stop to have a short picnic in a meadow if it is not wet (please bring a blanket and some snack for you!). We plan to be back at the Praterstern station at 18:00.
Please bring 1 liter of water and wear sturdy shoes and comfortable clothes. The walk is long (about 12 km) and the terrain might be wet in some points if it rained the day before. If heavy rain is forecasted we'll postpone the hike and notify all participants 48 hours before the event.
IMPORTANT: This is not a guided hike, but simply a chance to experience nature around Vienna together, so everyone is responsible for their own health and safety.
If you need more information, please ask in the comments.

**You asked for something more challenging… here it is** 😉
An adventure that’s still doable for most people — but not so easy that it gets boring. And trust me, the views are absolutely worth it. This one is going to be a hit.
📅 Date: May 24
🕒 Time: ~9:00
📍 Location: Franz-Josefs-Bahnhof
**What makes it special:**
— breathtaking viewpoints over the Danube valley
— charming Dürnstein village
— a visit to the famous castle ruins
📏 Distance: ~5–6 km
⛰ Elevation: ~330 m
⏱ Duration: ~2.5 hours (plus breaks & photos)
**About the hike:**
This route is sometimes classified as red or black. But I’ve done it several times, and it’s absolutely manageable if you’re reasonably active.
It’s definitely more challenging than a typical Stadtwanderweg, but far from an extreme hike.
⚠️ **Expect:**
– some steep and narrow sections with cables
– a few rocky parts
– beautiful exposed views
👉 You don’t need climbing experience, but you should:
– feel comfortable walking on uneven terrain
– not have a strong fear of heights
– have basic fitness level
Perfect for active people who want a bit of adventure, but not a hardcore hike.
🥾 Hiking shoes are a must
💶 **Participation fee:** 28 € (including train & bus tickets)
👥 **Group size:** strictly limited to 14 participants
I keep the group intentionally small so the experience stays comfortable, safe, and enjoyable for everyone.
🎫 **If you have a Klimaticket:**
Just mention it in the registration form, and you’ll only pay a 12 € organizational fee.
In case of bad weather conditions the trip will be postponed.
🚸The main goal of my trips is about enjoying the moment, meeting new people, and making beautiful places accessible even if you’re not a pro.

❗️Please make sure to fill out the registration form: the link will be posted in the WA group ❗️
Coding Club 💻❤️
**Hey everybody!**
Do you want to code together, share your projects, or just hang out in a creative atmosphere?
Then join us at the **Coding Club @ Jo&Joe Hostel**!
We usually start with a short introduction round so everyone can get to know each other.
After that, you can:
* share your achievements or pet projects (informal, just at the table)
* get feedback or inspiration from others
* or simply work on your own project alongside the group
Bring your laptop (or any device you like to code on) if you want to actively work.
Or just come by to connect and get inspired.
Please try to be on time so we can kick things off together.
Looking forward to seeing you there! 🚀
Sunday Screenings in the Living Room
Weekly screenings from a large archive of many of the most significant, yet seldom seen and rarely accessible cinematic masterpieces in the history of film - from its earliest beginnings to the present day. Screenings are in original language, if English, or original language with English subtitles.
Films are selected democratically on the inspiration of a brief pre-screening discussion. The selected title is typically a "neglected gem" that most of us discover together for the first time. Individual taste is not a criterion and all participants are expected to put the interests of the group as a whole above personal preference or prejudice. In this sense, the emphasis is on openness, exploration, and surprise. Each screening is followed by an in-depth group discussion, led and moderated by the curator.
WARNNG: FilmStory is not just about watching movies! Rather, it's a socially responsible, intellectual engagement, involving an organic approach to group study of film language, philosophy, art, history, politics, and technology. In this sense, the film is always merely the current highlight in an explorative, ongoing group discussion.
**FilmStory** is a members-only series that involves a closely knit community of cinephiles. Events take place every Sunday in a comfortable, private setting with limited capacity. Participation is reserved primarily for regular members, but we're always ready to make new friends!
Non-regular members may request to meet the community and, upon acceptance as a "new joiner," are welcome to participate in one event, according to space availability. New joiners are asked to make a €6 member dues contribution in advance of the requested date. New members receive a message of confirmation and the address of the Living Room in 1080 Vienna upon receipt of their dues contribution.
**FilmStory** is presented and hosted by **[KulturSalon Wien](https://www.meetup.com/kultursalon-wien/)**.
Tango Argentino Focused Práctica for all levels
**Focused Práctica for all levels –** *Included in the new [Tango Learning Pass](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/tango-learning-pass/), the 4-block of the [Tango Basics Course](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/tangobasics/), and the semester/yearly subscription to the [Tango Immersion Program.](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/tangoimmersion/) Attending just the Práctica? Get advantage of the 5-block (€60) and the 10-block (€100). Single Práctica sessions are €15.*
Looking for a space to practice Tango Argentino with intention? The Focused Prácticas are open practice gatherings for dancers of all levels, whether you’re just starting out, deepening your foundations, or refining more advanced skills.
**You’re welcome to:**
Train individual technique or work in pairs
Practice the role(s) of your choice – Most regular attendants practice both
Explore what you want for as long as you like
Repeat, research, and integrate what you’re currently learning wherever that may be
**This is not a class, and not a milonga.**
**It’s a space for mindful practice, curiosity, and experimentation.**
There's plenty of room for those who want to practice navigation in ronda or something else on a fixed spot without disturbing each other's process.
It's not required to attend my classes to join, the Focused Prácticas are open to all backgrounds.
**Here you can expect:**
A welcoming, respectful atmosphere
Space to focus without pressure
Supportive presence if questions arise
Freedom to choose what you want to work on
Socializing and exchanging feedback with others is welcome; consent and respecting each person’s process is the base.
When I'm traveling, the Focused Prácticas are hosted by Justina.
**When & Where?**
Sundays at 20:00, after the Tango Basics class\*
EWTO Akademie – Breitenseer Straße 6, 1140 Wien
\*Except during our [Tango Immersion Weekends](https://www.jessicagerdel.com/tangoimmersion), in which the Práctica takes place on Saturdays at 20:15 at a different location. Check our calendar for details.
**Whether you’re building foundations, maintaining a regular practice habit, or simply looking for a place to dance with intention, you’re warmly invited.**
Come as you are.
Practice what matters to you.
Grow together with intention.
See you on the dance floor!
Abrazo,
Jessica

Join us this Pride season to paint your own pride on rocks, paper, canvas, and yes- we are bringing back the bricks! Come create and paint with us. Seats and supplies limited! Come while you can for as long as you like! Westerville Public Library Meeting Room D.
Shut Up & Write!® East Side Columbus
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 11 at Streetlight Guild.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
**SCHEDULE:**
6:45ish - Quick introductions
7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
8:00 - The End
**OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
**BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!
**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!
**OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:**
* **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space!
* **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels.
* **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay!
* **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.
