**Haluatko oppia puhumaan selkeämmin, itsevarmemmin – ja vähän vähemmällä jännityksellä?** **Stadin Sanasepät** on suomenkielinen puhe- ja esiintymistaitojen treenikenttä, jossa opitaan puhumalla – ei istumalla passiivisena luennoilla. Meillä esiintytään, mokaillaan, pitchataan ja kehitytään turvallisessa ja kannustavassa ilmapiirissä. Tämä on hyvä paikka, jos haluat esimerkiksi: – saada itsevarmuutta esiintymiseen – sanoittaa omaa ajatustasi napakammin – treenata tulevaa työpaikan esitystä varten – kehittyä palautteen antajana (ja vastaanottajana!) – tai vaan oppia puhumaan ihmisille niin, että ne kuuntelee Saat oman mentorin, pääsyn kansainväliseen Toastmasters-materiaaliin – ja ennen kaikkea porukan, joka tsemppaa ja kulkee mukana. Vieraileminen on maksutonta eikä ennakkoilmoittautumista tarvita. Tule testaamaan, miltä tuntuu puhua yleisön edessä. Ei tarvitse olla valmis – kunhan haluat oppia.

Work life is changing fast — and Agile Coaches are right at the center of that transformation. Transformation is made by people. So let’s not talk about AI for a moment, and refocus on the most important asset we have: *us*. Artificial intelligence and hybrid work are reshaping how we collaborate. While they bring many benefits, they can also fragment shared thinking and make it harder to build a common understanding. In this interactive workshop, you’ll get hands-on experience with the **Epics©-method**, developed by Epicmeets. The method helps combine different modes of thinking, spark creativity, strengthen collaboration, and turn ideas into real action. **What you’ll gain:** Practical experience with the Epics© method. New ways to build shared understanding in teams Fresh perspectives through meaningful conversations with peers. Insights into how the Agile Coach role is evolving — and how to prepare for it. This is not just a session to listen — it’s an engaging, collaborative experience where you’ll learn by doing and by sharing. *Join us and be part of the conversation shaping the future of Agile work!* **About our facilitators** ***Maria Scholl*** With over 15 years of experience in international technical companies, Maria is the Lead Facilitation & Training at Epicmeets. She specializes in tearing down organizational silos and fostering trust-based, cross-functional collaboration where traditional fixes fail. As a seasoned transformation facilitator and moderation trainer, she helps complex organizations move past mere discussion to achieve shared understanding and concrete, sustainable change. ***Vesa Kangasperko*** Vesa is an experienced coach and facilitator in change situations. He has worked as a professional coach (ICF ACC) and a specialist in human‑centric change for more than 15 years. In his work, he has seen firsthand how high‑quality interaction correlates with the success of change initiatives. Vesa participates in the event as a facilitator, bringing his experience in human‑centric change work. For this event, he collaborates with Epicmeets **About Epicmeets** Epicmeets empowers people to collaborate authentically, equally, and with tangible outcomes. The Epics©-method and tools make it possible. We’ll be hosted by **Epicmeets** on their premises. Remember to thank them for inviting us to meet at their location! **About the Coaching Circles** Our monthly Coaching Circles are a safe and collaborative space for all members of the community and participants of the events to share their experiences, tools and more. We gather every month, to explore a different topic. The event follows the [Agile Finland's Code of Conduct](https://www.agile.fi/about/code-of-conduct/).

Discover the restorative power of nature on a guided forest walk on the island of Seurasaari. Through calm observation and gentle connection with the forest atmosphere, slow down, unwind, and sharpen your senses. **IMPORTANT**: Spots are limited, please make sure to reserve yours! If you are not registered, you will be kindly asked to leave. Step out of everyday busyness and into a more present, embodied experience of nature.

Everyone is welcome, whether you’re a beginner or already experienced. **IMPORTANT**: Spots are limited, so please reserve yours in advance. Only registered participants can join to ensure fair access for everyone.

We are committed to making our events and activities accessible to those who need them most. Therefore, **individuals with a refugee background are welcome to attend free of charge without prior registration.** If you plan to join, simply send a message to Alaa to let us know you’re coming. This approach is intentional. Many refugees and newcomers face practical, cultural, and psychological barriers that can make formal registration difficult or discouraging. By removing this requirement, we aim to create a more inclusive, low-threshold environment where participation feels safe, simple, and welcoming. Our events are designed to support the mental health and well-being of refugees and immigrants, while also encouraging dialogue that challenges cross-cultural stigmas and stereotypes. We believe open access is an important step in building trust, increasing participation, and creating meaningful connections across communities. After badminton, we'll enjoy Talihalli's sauna and maybe go to a local restaurant to grab some lunch after the game.

**The event has been canceled.** *Note: this is a demonstration event only, you **will not** shoot you own images. However, if you bring your camera we can test it for compatibility with the studio lights.* Bondage elements can add an extra layer of emotion and artistry to your images. Sample images on the internet are however dominated by BDSM style shots that are often sexualized and emphasize the model being in distress. In this demonstration Rachel and I show ways to use bondage elements in an artistic way. We explore the types of accessories that work best in artistic images and the best way to photograph them. Our model is Rachel Adams, an internationally known fetish model with many years of experience in this genre.
