💃 Argentine Tango – The dancing Embrace✹
💃 Argentine Tango – The dancing Embrace✹
đŸ‡Ș🇾Español Abajo 👇 Did you move to a new country and have to reinvent yourself? Building friendships from scratch, navigating a new language, missing home — yet longing to belong? Argentine Tango was born from exactly these stories. In Buenos Aires, generations of newcomers found connection in an unfamiliar land — through an improvised embrace, without fixed rules, simply listening and responding to one another. đŸ”č **What to expect?** ✔ Discover tango as a social language — not just a dance ✔ Playful, guided partner exercises to explore connection through movement ✔ The embrace, the walk, and the subtle dialogue that arises between two bodies ✔ No pressure with complicated sequences - two left feet are welcome! 📍 **Where?** "La Casona de los Bellos Aires" in Rawson 394. We’ll walk together from Tienda del Cafe Italiano to the tango space (easy to combine with the Culture Shock Therapy social gathering before) 💰 **How much?** 10.000$ đŸ™‹đŸŒâ€â™€ïž **Who?** Guided by Valerie Kattenfeld — tango dancer and teacher, passionate about creating warm, clear, and authentic spaces for connection through dance. 👟 **What to bring?** Comfortable clothes and shoes you can move in (sneakers or sandals you can close. No Flip Flops. Also socks are ok). You do not need to come with a partner. ☕ **Before?** Join our Culture Shock Therapy social meetup at CafĂ© Diletto and come with us to the class! Step into a living piece of Buenos Aires — and maybe recognize a part of your own story in the embrace. ✹ See you on the dance floor! FOLLOW US INSTAGRAM: @CULTURE.SHOCKTHERAPY / @valeriekattenfeld [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy/) *** ÂżTe mudaste a otro paĂ­s y tuviste que reinventarte? ÂżConstruir amistades desde cero, manejarte en otro idioma, extrañar tu hogar — y al mismo tiempo sentir el deseo de pertenecer? El Tango Argentino naciĂł exactamente de esas historias. En Buenos Aires, generaciones de reciĂ©n llegados encontraron conexiĂłn en una tierra desconocida — a travĂ©s de un abrazo improvisado, sin reglas fijas, simplemente escuchando y respondiĂ©ndose mutuamente. đŸ”č **ÂżQuĂ© podĂ©s esperar?** ✔ Descubrir el tango como un lenguaje social — no solo como un baile ✔ Ejercicios lĂșdicos y guiados en pareja para explorar la conexiĂłn a travĂ©s del movimiento ✔ El abrazo, la caminata y el diĂĄlogo sutil que surge entre dos cuerpos ✔ Sin presiĂłn ni secuencias complicadas — ÂĄbienvenidas las personas con dos pies izquierdos! 📍 **ÂżDĂłnde?** "La Casona de los Bellos Aires" in Rawson 394. Caminaremos juntas/os desde Tienda del Cafe Italiano hasta el espacio de la clase (fĂĄcil de combinar con el encuentro social previo de Culture Shock Therapy). 💰 **ÂżCuĂĄnto?** 10.000$ đŸ™‹đŸŒâ€â™€ïž **ÂżQuiĂ©n?** Guiado por Valerie Kattenfeld — bailarina y profesora de tango, apasionada por crear espacios cĂĄlidos, claros y autĂ©nticos de conexiĂłn a travĂ©s de la danza. 👟 **ÂżQuĂ© traer?** Ropa cĂłmoda y calzado con el que puedas moverte (zapatillas o sandalias que se puedan cerrar. No ojotas. TambiĂ©n podĂ©s venir en medias). No necesitĂĄs venir en pareja. ☕ **ÂżAntes?** Sumate al encuentro social de Culture Shock Therapy en CafĂ© Diletto y venite con nosotras/os a la clase. EntrĂĄ en una pieza viva de Buenos Aires — y quizĂĄs reconozcas una parte de tu propia historia en el abrazo. ✹ ÂĄNos vemos en la pista! **SEGUINOS** **INSTAGRAM: @CULTURE.SHOCKTHERAPY / @valeriekattenfeld** [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy/)

April Book Club Meetup
April Book Club Meetup
Welcome, readers! Our April read is **_Martyr!_ by Kaveh Akbar.** The story follows a young Iranian American poet grappling with grief, addiction, and the aching question of what makes a life meaningful. Drawn into an unexpected friendship with a terminally ill artist, he begins to confront faith, love, and the seduction of self-destruction. Lyrical, darkly funny, and emotionally piercing, the novel wrestles with beauty and despair in equal measure. It’s a story about longing—to be seen, to be forgiven, and to matter. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖

Bad Girls Book Club May 2026
Bad Girls Book Club May 2026
**Our May novel is: *The Quiet Librarian* by Allen Eskens** **This month’s book is set in the 20th century and mixes historical fiction with suspense and thriller elements. It also centers on women’s stories and relationships. The novel is 368 pages in print or 8 hours and 12 minutes on audiobook.** Hana Babic is a quiet, middle-aged librarian in Minnesota who wants nothing more than to be left alone. But when a detective arrives with the news that her best friend has been murdered, Hana knows that something evil has come for her, a dark remnant of the past she and her friend had shared. Thirty years before, Hana was someone else: Nura Divjak, a teenager growing up in the mountains of war-torn Bosnia—until Serbian soldiers arrived to slaughter her entire family before her eyes. The events of that day thrust Nura into the war, leading her to join a band of militia fighters, where she became not only a fierce warrior but a legend—the deadly Night Mora. But a shattering final act forced Nura to flee to the United States with a bounty on her head\*\*.\*\*
