Beginners Running

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

**🎉 Quick Rounds Real Connection for Columbus Locals Live** On the night, you'll spend your time in short virtual speed dates with Columbus locals in your age group matched for you, as a skilled host keeps the pace natural. Before you join, a short matching quiz is included in the process — the information you provide there to connect you with Columbus singles who fit your profile, so each round starts with genuine compatibility in mind. Once the event finishes, mutual matches are shared privately — with nothing shared unless both parties agreed — and there is no pressure on timing. **Your age group, your link:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=18-32&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=30-46&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=40-58&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=55+&face_v=3.0) **⚠️ Note:** Clicking rsvp is only the first step not the whole process, so click your age group link, complete the form, and take the short personality questionnaire — places are capped so do this promptly, and the registration is what actually counts, not the RSVP. --- **Great for:** - Daters across Columbus looking beyond profiles instead of real people and want to meet real locals without the faff. - Anyone around Columbus bored of matches that ghost after two messages and want real chemistry over profile photos. - First-timers from the Columbus area who have had enough of unread messages and dead-end conversations and want actual face-to-face conversation. **The breakdown** 1. **Find your age group** – by tapping the link for your age group, then complete the personality assessment, since your spot is held only once this is done. 2. **Join the session** – by clicking the Zoom link at the event start time, works on any device without requiring a download, and once you are in the host handles the rest entirely. 3. **Chat one-on-one** – curated one-on-one rounds with Columbus singles sorted to your age and personality, with everything paced by a host so nothing drags, and each person in your rounds was chosen for compatibility. 4. **Get your mutual matches** – after the event you will receive any mutual match details, with contact info only shared when both of you said yes, and everything from that point is on your schedule. **Event Details** - **Format:** Professionally hosted via a live video call running short timed video rounds throughout, quiz-and-age matched for every single round. - **Where:** Fully remote — on any Wi-Fi-connected device, the only requirement is a device with a camera and internet, and whichever room suits you best is ideal. - **Host:** An attentive host takes care of all the logistics from beginning to end, leaving you free to just connect — there is nothing on your end to organise or manage. - **Vibe:** Warm personal date rounds with Columbus people who actually turned up, and the format itself removes most of the pressure. - **Duration:** Most sessions run for an hour give or take all told, and the quick rounds make it feel fast. 💡 **Pre-event tip:** get your lighting sorted ahead of time, and it only takes a couple of minutes to sort, as it is worth doing before you need it not during. --- ✨ One Zoom call, real conversations, real matches — lock in your spot above and we will take care of the matching and we will get you all set up. The host will see you shortly. 💎 ✨
