Because we rent a beautiful, central space for every event. Ever thought your monthly apartment rent was too high? Well, multiply that – that’s what commercial spaces in big cities like Berlin cost *per hour*.

**Trial Fee**: **25€**/ session (2hr). Classes every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 19:00 to 21:00.
**!!SIGN UP HERE**: [Katori Shinto-ryū Berlin Sign-up (google.com)](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeBt4A13VgnEcgQQ2PDaruthmYMRWineG4KtUCKsuC9KBsCUQ/viewform) Registration is required before your participation so that we can prepare enough training equipment.
**Address**: Belziger Str. 25, 10823 Berlin.
**No previous experience required!** The classes are in English and German.
**Our website**: [Kenjutsu Berlin - Official school of Katori Shinto-ryu in Berlin (katoriberlin.org)](https://katoriberlin.org/)
**Katori Shintō-ryū** is one of the oldest Japanese sword fighting traditions (koryū) still practised today and is recognized by the Japanese government as a cultural intangeable asset. The school was founded in the middle of the 15th century by Iizasa Chōisai Ienao at the Katori Shrine (Katori jingū) and has become the origin of numerous other martial arts schools over the course of its almost 600-year history.
The training consists of the continuous repetition of fixed sequences of movements (kata) and includes the use of classic Japanese weapons such as the sword (iai-jutsu, battō-jutsu, ken-jutsu, ryōtō-jutsu, kodachi-jutsu), the long staff (bō-jutsu), the lance (naginata-jutsu) and the spear (sō-jutsu), as well as unarmed disciplines, tactics and spiritual aspects.
**The Katori Berlin dojo** is the only official shibu of Otake Nobutoshi-shihan’s dojo Shinbukan in Germany and fully dedicated to the transmission and study of one martial tradition: Tenshinshō-den Katori Shintō-ryū. Through these efforts we aim to contribute to the cultural preservation of this martial tradition. The dojo has one officially appointed shidosha.
**Our sensei**: Sebastian Graetz has been active in martial arts since 1997. After almost 15 years of taekwondo in Berlin, he started with Katori Shintō-ryū in Asia in 2014. Since then, he has studied in Japan with Ōtake Risuke-shihan and Ōtake Nobutoshi-shihan, and in Vietnam with Malte Stokhof-shihandai. In 2023, he received his Menkyo license and permission to set up a training group in Berlin the following year.

**Freitag Nacht. Alle beschleunigen. Dieses Event geht in die andere Richtung.**
**ÆR After Hours — DUSK**
Die meisten Freitage enden gleich. Laut, schnell, ein Drink zu viel. Der Samstagmorgen kommt, bevor die Woche wirklich gegangen ist.
Das ist die Stunde zwischen der Woche und dem Wochenende. Sechzig Minuten Breathwork, Duft und geführte Stille. Das Nervensystem verlangsamt sich. Die Schultern fallen. Der Kopf wird klar. DUSK begleitet dich durch die Session.
Danach gibt es Infused Drinks und gute Gesellschaft im gepflegten Networking-Style.
Dein Samstag beginnt anders, wenn der Freitag so endet.

Sensual Touch Lab: Breath and Sound
**Sensual Touch Lab: Breath and Sound**
with **Markus Bohlmann**
for **GBTQ men\***
**[Book a Ticket](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/sensual-touch/w12-2026)**
**Member: 15 €**
**Regular: 30 €**
We open up a space for a deep arrival in our own bodies. Through loving-connected breathing and mindful and conscious touch of ourselves and others, an invitation arises to feel held, connected, and safe.
We open a space to connect deeply with our bodies and one another. Together, we begin by acknowledging any discomfort we may carry around nudity, intimacy, and being truly seen by others. We then explore what it feels like to be touched by someone else in a mindful, caring way — to be held, witnessed, caressed, and supported. We take our time to notice our responses: where we soften, where we tense up, where we long for connection. Each experience is welcomed as valid.
Gradually, we shift toward becoming our own witness and our own allies. We cultivate a loving, connected presence with ourselves — meeting our desires and vulnerabilities with compassion.
We will be guided by the breath and sound as anchors for awareness. Touched by the sound of chimes and our own words that answer to our needs at the moment, we are surrounded by a shared field of presence and care, bathing in a soundscape of self-compassion — resting in intimate, authentic connection with ourselves and with other GBTQ\* men.
**What is Sensual Touch Lab Series for GBTQ Men\*?**
Sensual Touch Lab Series for GBTQ Men\* is a monthly workshop where we aim to create a space for sensual closeness and playful encounters.
Embodied, somatic experiences that appreciate our full-bodied nature. Using sensuality as an approach to explore new ways of dealing with our own fears or patterns related to nudity, intimacy, and touch. We invite you to explore, communicate, and possibly expand your personal boundaries within a framework of mutual respect and consent. This opens up the opportunity to experience the power of touch, sensation, and non-verbal interpersonal connection.
Each event will be a guided process, which will have a special touch depending on the theme and background of the facilitator\*, whether it be bodywork and touch, somatics and intimacy, or something else. These short workshops may include nudity, partner exercises or close physical interactions.
**Benefits:**
**•** Creates valuable shared experiences among GBTQ men\* through closeness, empathy, and connection.
**•** Combats feelings of isolation and loneliness.
**•** Promotes self-love and acceptance of one’s body and identity
**•** Provides a safe, judgement-free space to explore personal boundaries
**•** Contributes to overall well-being and supports the ability to build lasting relationships
**•** Can serve as a healthy coping mechanism and reduce the risk of substance abuse
**General Information**
• This format is for all queer men\* / queer masculinities interested in experiencing touch in a safe(r) setting.
• Please pay attention to personal hygiene.
• Bring a sheet and towel to cover cushions, mats, or massage tables.
• This event will be in German and/or English depending on participant needs.
• This event is also available at a reduced member price – but not part of the two-free-monthly-events benefit.
🔵
Wir öffnen einen Raum für ein tiefes Ankommen im eigenen Körper. Durch liebevolles, präsentes Atmen sowie achtsame und bewusste Berührung – uns selbst und anderen gegenüber – entsteht eine Einladung, sich gehalten, verbunden und geborgen zu fühlen.
Wir schaffen einen Raum, der es uns erlaubt, tief mit unserem Körper und miteinander in Verbindung zu treten. Gemeinsam beginnen wir unserem Unbehagen bewusst Raum zu geben, das wir möglicherweise in Bezug auf Nacktheit, Intimität und das Gefühl, von anderen gesehen zu werden, empfinden. Anschließend erforschen wir, wie es sich anfühlt, von jemand anderem auf achtsame, fürsorgliche Weise berührt, wahrgenommen und unterstützt zu werden. Wir nehmen uns Zeit, unsere Empfindungen wahrzunehmen: wo wir im Körper weicher werden, wo wir uns anspannen, wo wir uns nach Verbindung sehnen. Jede Erfahrung ist willkommen.
Dann tauchen wir in die Erfahrung ein, uns selbst zu halten und zu umsorgen, für uns selbst da zu sein. Wir kultivieren eine liebevolle, verbundene Präsenz mit uns selbst – und begegnen unseren Wünschen und Verletzlichkeiten mit Mitgefühl.
Wir lassen uns hierbei vom Atem und Klang der Koshi Chimes als Anker für das Bewusstsein leiten. Auch der Klang unserer eigenen Worte~~n~~, die auf unsere Bedürfnisse in diesem Moment eingehen, trägt zu einem gemeinsamen Feld der Präsenz und Selbstfürsorge bei. Wir sind eingeladen in einer intimen, authentischen Verbindung mit uns selbst und mit anderen GBTQ\*-Männern zu ruhen.
**Was ist Sensual Touch Lab Series for GBTQ Männer\*?**
Sensual Touch Lab Series für GBTQ Männer\* ist ein monatlicher Workshop, bei dem wir einen Raum für sinnliche Nähe und spielerische Begegnungen schaffen möchten.
Verkörperte, somatische Erfahrungen, die unsere Gesamtkörperlichkeit wertschätzen. Sinnlichkeit als Zugang, neue Wege im Umgang mit unseren eigenen Ängsten oder Mustern in Bezug auf Nacktheit, Intimität und Berührung erkunden. Wir laden dich ein, deine persönlichen Grenzen in einem Rahmen gegenseitigen Respekts und Einvernehmens zu erforschen, zu kommunizieren und gegebenenfalls zu erweitern. Dabei eröffnet sich die Möglichkeit, die Kraft von Berührung, Empfindung und nonverbaler, zwischenmenschlicher Bezogenheit zu erfahren.
Jedes Event wird ein geführter Prozess sein, der je nach Thema und Hintergrund der Kursleitenden\* eine besondere Note hat, sei es Körperarbeit und Berührung, Somatik und Intimität oder etwas anderes. Diese Kurzworkshops können Nacktheit, Partnerübungen sowie körperlich nahe Interaktionen beinhalten.
**Vorteile**
**•** Schafft wertvolle, gemeinsame Erfahrungen unter GBTQ Männer\* durch Nähe, Empathie und Verbundenheit
**•** Bekämpft Gefühle der Isolation und Einsamkeit
**•** Fördert Selbstliebe und Akzeptanz des eigenen Körpers und der Identität
**•** Bietet einen sicheren, urteilsfreien Raum zur Erforschung persönlicher Grenzen
**•** Trägt zum allgemeinen Wohlbefinden bei und unterstützt die Fähigkeit, dauerhafte Beziehungen aufzubauen
**•** Kann als gesunder Bewältigungsmechanismus dienen und das Risiko von Substanzmissbrauch reduzieren
**Hinweise**
• Dieses Format ist für alle queeren Männer\*/Männlichkeiten, die Berührung in einer einvernehmlichen, unterstützenden Atmosphäre erfahren möchten.
• Bitte lege Wert auf persönliche Hygiene
• Bringe zum Abdecken von Kissen, Matten oder Massageliegen ein Laken und ein Handtuch mit
• Je nach Bedürfnissen der Gruppe werden wir Deutsch und/oder Englisch sprechen
• Dieses Event ist auch zu einem ermäßigten Mitgliederpreis erhältlich – aber kein Bestandteil der drei kostenlosen monatlichen Mitgliederveranstaltungen

Sunday Tech Coffee Meetup
Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a **networking** event for those in the tech industry in Berlin.
We are usually inside and to the right. Ask the barista/bartender if you can't find us.
Real Long Term Friendship
Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows:
* You should not care how many people are joining this meetup.
You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend.
* You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining.
You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones.
* You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time!
Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-)
* You are ready to use your phone as a real phone!
You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone!
* You are going to meet some people twice!
That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once.
If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way.
P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).
Mavericks Bouldering — Casual Climb & Hangout
A small NEXUS gathering built around movement and natural conversation.

Chitta Walks - Awareness in Motion
Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease.
This walk is a simple reset.
We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment.
No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening.
If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk.
✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):**
* A short arrival and orientation
* A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation)
* One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress
* Optional reflection in pairs or small groups
* A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life
🚶**Who this is for:**
* Professionals, creatives, and people in transition.
* People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance.
* Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical.
* Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation.
🔔 **Practical notes:**
* Duration: 60-90 minutes
* Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing
* No prior experience needed
* Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused
🧭 **Facilitator:**
My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction.
🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?**
Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense.
Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world.
The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it.
🌿 **Possible effects:**
A calmer nervous system.
Clearer attention.
A felt sense of being more present in your body.
Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions.
A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city.
**Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**

It's happening again
How is it going? It has been a while. It feels like years. Gladly, winter is over, which for me personally always seems to be a total lockdown from the meetup scene every year. Now I am curious. What is new? What has changed? Are there new insights you would like to share? From an astrological perspective, 2026 starts with an interesting setup. Saturn and Neptune meet at 0° Aries, often described as a moment where vision meets reality, bringing clarity about what truly feels aligned and what no longer serves us anymore. In short, it is a reality check. I would say I can feel a bit of that ☺️ Let’s discuss if you feel it too, or if astrology is just the perfect hopium for us intuitives ✨
We will meet at a new location, at least new for our meetup. I have seen it during the All Types MBTI meetup events before and felt heavily inspired by it. So thank you for the inspiration, All Types MBTI meetup group, and I hope to see you there very soon 🍻
Whether you identify as an INFJ, align closely with its traits, or simply have a curiosity about meeting individuals of this type, this event is for you. Let's share our insights, exchange life experiences and discuss anything that occupies our minds.
From past events, having the same MBTI type in a meetup is a very worthwhile, sometimes even family-like experience.
If you're uncertain about your personality type, you can take a quick test here: https://www.idrlabs.com/test.php
All other MBTI types are also always very welcome 🤝
See you there 💚

Confidence & Connection: Using Your Authentic Truth to Find Your People
**Confidence & Connection: Using Your Authentic Truth to Find Your People**
Confidence isn’t just about believing in yourself, it’s about knowing where you belong and who you can grow alongside.
In this April Confidence Lab Happy Hour, we’ll explore how living in your authentic truth helps you find your people, build meaningful collaborations, and create spaces where vulnerability is met with respect rather than risk. Together, we’ll reflect on what it looks like to advocate for yourself with clarity and care, and how confidence deepens when it’s rooted in connection rather than comparison.
Featured speaker **Lachandra Baker**, founder of **[LBB Edutainment](https://www.lbbedutainment.com/)** and author of *Your Own Biggest Cheerleader*, will share reflections on authenticity, psychological safety, and the power of community over individual achievement. Drawing from personal stories—including the significance of turning 53—Lachandra will invite us into a conversation about showing up fully, being seen, and choosing relationships that support who you truly are.
Expect a warm, welcoming atmosphere with space for reflection, shared insight, and intentional connection—plus drinks, light bites, and the kind of conversations that remind you you’re not meant to do this alone.
Come as you are. Leave feeling clearer about your voice, your people, and the confidence that grows when both are aligned.
**What is Confidence Lab?**
Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here.
Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work.
It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact.
***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*

Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!

Recruiting Virtual Mental Health Group Leaders!
We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country.
Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply.
### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?**
Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being.
Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment.
## **Why Join?**
* **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance.
* **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space.
* **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection.
## **The Ideal Group Leader**
The ideal group leader
* Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community.
* Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us.
* Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind.

* Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus.
## **Our Impact**

Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported:
* A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being.
* An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging.
* Said they would return again.
We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself.
### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based**
Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission!
Every contribution helps us:
* **Cover Essential Costs** – Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization.
* **Grow Our Mission** – With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year.
By choosing to contribute, you’re not just leading an event—you’re helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic.
