### **Summer Love - Bring a friend for free.** I love the summer time and the way the sun extends the perception of day into the night. Late nights with friends takes on a whole new flavor during these summer months. So – for the month of June– **you are invited to bring your friend along (for free)** to share this precious space x dance together. **✧ FOR YOU ✧** Maybe you’re curious about eroticism as life force — about playing with sensuality, clothing, and aliveness in a safe(r) space. Maybe you just love good music and want to dance outside the club. CLOSER x-dance is for all who want to explore the meeting of movement, creativity x life force energy. CLOSER x-dance is open to all, creating a safe(r) space for different horizons, sexual orientations and experiences. ***No previous experience required.*** **✦ WHAT IS CLOSER x-dance ✦** CLOSER x-dance is a dedication to unshackling any chains that teach us to separate our inherent er-t\*c aliveness from the rest of ourselves. It is an invitation to embrace the sensual when it arises, to grant permission to our emotions, and to move with creative play in a spontaneous movement journey. Guided by an eclectic wave of sound and inspirational prompts, you’ll move through the 5Rhythms — five life energies that rise and fall like a wave. ✺ **Three ingredients shape each journey** ✺ ✺ Celebration of you - Nothing to get "right" ✺ Invitations - Follow what feels true for you ✺ Presence - Dance becomes a meditation in motion **⟢ CONTRIBUTION ⟣** ⟢ €15 \(Reduced\) \| €20 \(Regular\) \| €25 \(Supportive\) ⟢ Buy at www.samarlinn.com/events or cash at the door **⋰ WHAT TO EXPECT ⋱** ⋰ Entry from 19.15 - Please note entry after 19.45 isn’t possible. ⋰ Warm-up + Introduction ⋰ Guided music wave — move, release, reconnect ⋰ Take it further - open space after class to connect ⋰ No phones on the dance floor

Join our Backgammon Meetup to play, socialize, and enjoy this classic game! Everyone’s welcome! Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player. Expect fun, friendly games, laughter, and new friends. With the nice weather and the beautiful lakeside setting, it’s a perfect place to enjoy a few games and spend time together. Hopefully we can make the most of a sunny summer afternoon! ☀️🎲⛲️🍻🌳 👉 Please RSVP only if you plan to attend. 👉 Bring your own set if you have one. **How to Play (Quick Guide):** - Each player has 15 checkers and moves them toward their home board. - Dice rolls decide how many spaces you can move. - Land on an opponent’s single checker to send it to the bar. - Once all your checkers are home, start bearing off (removing them). - First to remove all checkers wins! **Fun Fact:** The Origin of Backgammon: Backgammon is one of the oldest known board games, with roots deeply embedded in the ancient civilisations of Mesopotamia. But it is in Persia, where the game truly flourished and evolved into what we now know as 'Takhte Nard'. Archaeological findings suggest that early forms of backgammon were played in Iran over 5,000 years ago. Artifacts such as game boards and dice have been discovered in sites like 'Shahr-e Sukhteh' (The Burnt City), indicating the game’s ancient origins.

Liebe Schrägen, habt ihr Lust Basketball um Obama zu zelebrieren zu spielen? Wir treffen uns um 16 Uhr in der Nähe von Firlstraße / An der Wuhlheide. Wir setzen uns für eine halbe Stunde, bis wir alle da sind, dann spielen wir. Selbst bin ich Anfänger und gar nicht in Top Form. Die Regeln: Erst nach Zehn! Wir stehen üngefähr drei bis fünf Meter vor dem Korb. Wir werfen den Ball in den Korb. Wenn man erfolgreich den Ball in den Korb geworfen hat geht man weiter und wirft nochmal, doch diesmal mit der anderen Hand. Jedoch, wenn der Ball nicht in den Korb geht, dann ist der nächste Spieler an der Reihe. Erst nach Zehn. Eventuell wird es auch etwas Musik mit der JBL sein. Naturlich sind Zuschauer die gesellig sein wollen auch willkommen. Es gibt Sitzplätze am Rande des Platzes. Später könnten Wir eventuell Eis holen. Kommunikation bitte durch Signal Gruppe. Link im Kommentar. Auf den Basketball!!!
