🕢 Doors open at 18:30 and sessions start at 19:00. Freestyle vocal workout at and play session. €8-20 😌 Flow is a state of being… an experience when you allow yourself to be 100% fully engaged in the present moment in a feedback loop between clarity and satisfaction. It is an undeniable sensation where things seem to be more effortless, pleasurable, in sync, and you can easily sense a connection with something greater than yourself; this is what we will create…: • a connected and mindful meditation where it is possible to blissfully surf the cutting edge of the present moment together… • a game where it’s possible to feel excited and calm in the same moment, and everyone can win as much as they like… Scott Bolden, founder of Das Baumhaus Berlin will share some very easy, practical and effective methods developed during the last 12 years of facilitating the “Improvisational Groove Orchestra” (I.G.O.) improv vocal jam sessions. Within 20 minutes participants learn to use the common sound space to create resonance in the form of improvisational music where it is quite common to experience some real flow moments… It is very easy to participate, no musical talent or training is required so anyone is welcome to join. All of the session is done with eyes closed to avoid visual distractions and keep focus on the co-created sound space. During these sessions we will also have short breaks for feedback and refreshment. Important – Please be on time. It is very important to understand the methodology and warm up in the group before joining in! 🎤 @21:00 - Freestyle vocal workshop and practice session. €8-15 Have you ever wanted to learn how to do freestyle vocalizations? Maybe you are on your way and would like to just have a fun workout session with other vocal freestyle enthusiasts. All levels welcome.

Hallo, Es wird wieder wärmer und ich freue mich auf Freiluftkino. Für alle die Lust auf einen netten Abend und Austausch haben: Kinoclub-Treffen am nächsten Mittwoch, den 27.5 zu „Gelbe Briefe“ im Freiluftkino Friedrichshain mit Regisseur Ilker Cataks. Ich freue mich auf alle die Lust und Zeit haben ☺️ Lg Laura Goldener Bär - Berlinale 2026 für Ilker Çataks präzisen und bewegenden Film um ein Paar, das in die Mühlen staatlicher Repression gerät. Plötzlich trifft es auch das Künstlerehepaar Derya und Aziz. Ein Gelber Brief, wie er viele Menschen in der Türkei erreicht hat, belegt die beiden mit einem Beschäftigungsverbot. Sie müssen sich mit der neuen Situation arrangieren und versuchen ökonomischem Druck zu trotzen. Doch immer mehr fressen sich Fragen von Widerstand und Anpassung in den Alltag ihrer Familie. GELBE BRIEFE ist der erste komplett türkischsprachig gedrehte Film des Berliner Regisseurs Ilker Çatak (Das Lehrerzimmer). In diesem psychologisch starken Film steht Berlin für Istanbul und Hamburg für Ankara. 5 Filmrollen!radioeins https://freiluftkino-friedrichshain.de/film/32293

We'll start off the session with a run in Gleisdreieck park that might include scaling some walls, visiting a few sites in the area to explore their opportunities for climbing and balancing, or going up or down stairs in unusual ways. After the outdoors bit, we come back to our gym where we focus on building strength, working as a group, and learning basic martial arts techniques. We are a small, accessible, mixed-gender, queer-friendly group open to anyone, without any prior knowledge or specific degree of fitness required. Our martial art is Jutaijutsu, a traditional Japanese one focused on self-defence. Sounds interesting? We'd love for you to drop by and join us. You'll need running shoes and comfortable workout clothes, including a raincoat or the like for the park if the weather is bad. Once indoors, we train barefoot. The first three Meetups are free of charge. If you'd like to join our group beyond that, we would ask you to join our association, https://yanagi.berlin, a martial arts school based in Berlin. Membership there is 30 EUR/month and you will be able to train three times a week.

**Film Night – Jaripeo Documentary** For **LGBTQIA+** **[Free with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/village-film/w22-2026)** Guest: ***Sebastián Arcos*** **Jaripeo** Directors: Efraín Mojica, Rebecca Zweig 2026 – 70 min (In Spanish and English with English subtitles) Every Christmas, the town of Penjamillo in Michoacán comes alive with the Jaripeo — a traditional rodeo that draws locals and returning migrants from the United States, a celebration of cowboy culture and rural Mexican masculinity. Beneath the surface of this hypermasculine ritual, a hidden queer subculture blooms.nablässiger Moralisierung bewegen. Co-directed by Efraín Mojica and Rebecca Zweig, the film blends traditional ranchera experimenting with electronic sounds, Super 8 footage, and dreamlike interludes to reveal a queer subculture thriving within one of rural Mexico’s most macho-coded traditions. Efraín itself serves as a guide and protagonist, alongside Noé, a desirable cowboy who keeps his identity largely private, and Joseph, an exuberant stylist who wears his flamboyance with pride. *Jaripeo,* which premiered at Sundance and had its international premiere at the Berlinale, does not seek to expose or resolve. It simply asks us to look more carefully, and to find, within tradition, the full complexity of desire and belonging.
