**Luxury & Empowerment: Refining capacities to receive and to give** with ***Jorge De Hoyos*** for **GBTQ+ men\*** **[Book a ticket](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/sensual-touch/w20-2026)** Member: **15€** Non-member: **30€** Ready to rewrite your scripts on intimacy? Join us for an exploration of the delicate dance between giving and receiving. By tuning into your body’s unique signals of “yes” and “no,” you’ll learn to transform old habits into playful new roles. Whether you’re seeking the “luxury vacation” of a perfect touch or the thrill of radical generosity, this workshop offers a safe, consent-based space to expand your capacity for pleasure. What are your patterns in getting what you want? Is it vulnerable to ask for what you truly desire? And if something is requested of you, are you confident to give appropriately and enough? The relational work of cultivating pleasure through consent requires listening to where your body registers expanded channels and resistances & blocks to the flows of intention and energy. Which habits then would you like to transform? What new and fresh roles might you try on? What touch would be a luxury vacation, and how adventurous can you be in your generosity? All capacity levels welcome! \*Nudity and gential touch is possible, but no where near expected or required. 🔵 **Luxus & Empowerment: Die Kunst des Empfangens und Gebens verfeinern** Sensual Touch Lab Series mit ***Jorge de Hoyos*** Bist du bereit, deine Skripte über Intimität neu zu schreiben? Begib dich mit uns auf eine Entdeckungsreise durch den feinen Tanz zwischen Geben und Nehmen. Indem du lernst, auf die ganz eigenen Signale deines Körpers für „Ja“ und „Nein“ zu hören, transformierst du alte Gewohnheiten in spielerische neue Rollen. Egal, ob du den „Luxusurlaub“ einer perfekten Berührung suchst oder den Nervenkitzel radikaler Großzügigkeit – dieser Workshop bietet dir einen sicheren, konsensbasierten Raum, um deine Fähigkeit für Genuss zu erweitern. Welche Muster zeigst du, wenn es darum geht, das zu bekommen, was du willst? Fühlst du dich verletzlich, wenn du nach deinen wahren Wünschen fragst? Und wenn etwas von dir erbeten wird: Hast du das Selbstvertrauen, angemessen und aus vollem Herzen zu geben? Die Beziehungsarbeit, Lust durch Konsens zu kultivieren, erfordert ein tiefes Hineinhören: Wo spürt dein Körper offene Kanäle und wo zeigen sich Widerstände oder Blockaden im Fluss von Absicht und Energie? Welche Gewohnheiten möchtest du transformieren? In welche neuen, frischen Rollen würdest du gerne schlüpfen? Welche Berührung wäre für dich wie ein Luxusurlaub, und wie abenteuerlustig kannst du in deiner Großzügigkeit sein? Alle Erfahrungsstufen sind willkommen! \*Nacktheit und genitale Berührungen sind möglich, werden aber keinesfalls erwartet oder vorausgesetzt.

Come join us for a gentle yet powerful Seitai group practice — a space where silence, breath, and spontaneous movement meet. This is a donation-based event, so you’re free to contribute what feels right (from 0€ to (your choice)€). ✨ What is Seitai? Seitai (整体) is a Japanese practice that helps you reconnect with your body’s innate intelligence. Through subtle awareness and guided techniques, you’ll be invited to: Listen deeply to your body through Yuki (a meditative, hands-on practice of sensing and following the breath). Release hidden tension with Katsugen — allowing involuntary, spontaneous movements to arise naturally. Find balance in stillness and movement, letting your body recalibrate itself in surprising ways. Seitai is not about control or forcing; it’s about giving voice to the movements your body has been waiting to express. Sometimes this brings ease, clarity, and lightness. Sometimes it stirs up dizziness, discomfort, or emotions. Every experience is valid — and you are always free to pause or leave at any time. 🌌 Why join? Discover a practice that many find deeply transformative. Create space for release, renewal, and vitality. Explore in community, whether you’re a curious first-timer or already familiar with Seitai. 👕 Practical details Wear comfortable clothes and bring a towel and water to stay hydrated. Bring openness and curiosity. Watchers are welcome — you can simply observe, or dive into active practice. The session is guided, but the real teacher is your own body. ✨ Learn more: 🎥 Watch a short video: https://youtu.be/KF7agFE1zss?si=6UhmjwaIAfBo-_Op 📖 Read more about Seitai: https://seitaibarcelona.com/what-is-seitai/ Everyone is welcome, whether you are completely new or already familiar with Seitai. Bring comfortable clothes and an open mind. 💰 This event is donation-based, supporting the space and allowing us to keep offering it. Private one-to-one sessions are also available at an affordable price. 🌿 Step into silence, breath, and spontaneous movement — your body knows the way.

Dies ist eine Veranstaltung auf Spendenbasis, du kannst also frei beisteuern, was sich für dich richtig anfühlt (von 0€ bis (deine Wahl)€). ✨ Was ist Seitai? Seitai (整体) ist eine japanische Praxis, die dir hilft, dich wieder mit der angeborenen Intelligenz deines Körpers zu verbinden. Durch subtile Achtsamkeit und angeleitete Techniken bist du eingeladen: \*Tief auf deinen Körper zu hören durch Yuki (eine meditative, praktische Übung des Erspürens und Folgens des Atems). * Verborgene Spannungen mit Katsugen zu lösen – indem du unwillkürlichen, spontanen Bewegungen erlaubst, ganz natürlich zu entstehen. \*Balance in Stille und Bewegung zu finden, während sich dein Körper auf überraschende Weise selbst neu ausrichtet. Bei Seitai geht es nicht um Kontrolle oder Zwang; es geht darum, den Bewegungen eine Stimme zu geben, auf deren Ausdruck dein Körper gewartet hat. Manchmal bringt dies Leichtigkeit, Klarheit und Entspannung. Manchmal wirbelt es Schwindel, Unbehagen oder Emotionen auf. Jede Erfahrung ist gültig – und es steht dir jederzeit frei, eine Pause zu machen oder zu gehen. 🌌 Warum teilnehmen? * Entdecke eine Praxis, die viele als tief transformierend empfinden. \*Schaffe Raum für Loslassen, Erneuerung und Vitalität. * Erkunde die Praxis in der Gemeinschaft, egal ob du neugieriger Anfänger bist oder bereits Erfahrung mit Seitai hast. 👕 Praktische Details \*Trage bequeme Kleidung und bringe ein Handtuch sowie Wasser mit, um hydriert zu bleiben. * Bringe Offenheit und Neugier mit. \*Zuschauer sind willkommen – du kannst einfach nur beobachten oder direkt in die aktive Praxis eintauchen. * Die Sitzung wird angeleitet, aber der wahre Lehrer ist dein eigener Körper. ✨ Mehr erfahren: 🎥 Schau dir ein kurzes Video an: https://youtu.be/KF7agFE1zss?si=6UhmjwaIAfBo-_Op In diesem Video [00:16] wird Seitai als eine japanische Kulturform beschrieben, die den Organismus wieder in Ordnung bringt („Seitai“ bedeutet „Körper in Ordnung“). Es basiert auf der Beobachtung der natürlichen Lebensenergie und nutzt Bewegungen wie Katsugen Undo [00:32], um die Vitalität zu fördern. 📖 Lies mehr über Seitai: https://seitaibarcelona.com/what-is-seitai/ Jeder ist willkommen, egal ob du völlig neu bist oder Seitai bereits kennst.

Tired of dating apps or surface-level social events? This is different. Relational Labs is a guided connection experience for singles who want more honest, playful, emotionally intelligent interaction — without performance, pressure, or endless small talk. This is not speed dating. Not networking. Not “pitch yourself to strangers.” It’s a facilitated relational container rooted in psychology, emotional intelligence, attachment work, social dynamics, nervous system awareness, and real-world human connection — made practical enough that you can actually live it instead of reading another 50 books about it. ## What happens • A 2-hour guided online relational experience • Real-time connection exercises designed to create authentic interaction • A format that adapts in real time to whoever is present • Optional participant-led in-person continuation afterward • WhatsApp connection thread after the session ## This may be for you if: • You’re tired of shallow or repetitive social spaces • You want deeper connection without forced intimacy • You enjoy personal growth, psychology, communication, or relational work • You’re open to meeting people in a more intentional way ## Important This experience runs with whoever is present and takes its own shape each time. Sometimes expansive. Sometimes intimate. Both are the real thing. Booking happens through our website. 👉 Reserve your spot: [https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join) Optional in-person continuation: same day or within 48 hours depending on the city Most people come alone. People often leave surprised by how quickly strangers can feel human, warm, honest, and real. Sometimes awkwardness turns into ease. Sometimes curiosity turns into chemistry. Sometimes people simply remember what it feels like to actually connect again.

Join this Professional Communication session — to sharpen the skills for architectural pitches, elevator pitches, interviews. This time we meet in the Monbijou park. 💡 How it works The event is split into two parts: 1. **Communication (10 minute rounds)** – One participant answers a round of design and behavioral questions. Each other participant gets to ask him one question. 2. **Feedback Round** – The group provides feedback on communication, structure, and clarity. Constructive criticism is encouraged. 💡You will be asked: * **Light design problems** (high-level reasoning, not code) * **Behavioral questions** (“Tell me about yourself”, “Describe a challenge you faced...”) No need to prepare anything in advance — just bring curiosity and an open mind. 💡Note: location is the entrance to Monbijou park

**A ritual photoshoot, held in a group of women, witnessed and captured by photographer, artist and muse [Jaqueline Louan](https://www.jaquelinelouan.com/). Every attendee takes home 10-15 professional photos of themselves.** [Further info & tickets.](https://spnkd.com/solo-event-a-tantric-ritual-photoshoot-for-women-in-full-bloom/) — **Have you ever paused in front of a bouquet of flowers, allowing its abundance to fill you?** The diversity. The intricacy. No petal the same. Flowers blooming in every color. Have you ever felt the quiet erotic aliveness of a seed sprouting, reaching from the darkness into the light, ready to open to the sun? **Ready to be witnessed. To be seen by another.** In this ritual photoshoot, we enter the energy of blooming. Of softening open. Of allowing your petals to receive the warmth and richness of life. This is a living painting, your body and energy as the canvas. Your fullness. Your sweetness, your thorns, the untamed weeds of your vibrant core. So many of us long to be seen… yet when attention arrives, we contract. We hide. We close. In Full Bloom is an invitation to gently open again. Through carefully guided practices, you will be led deeper into your natural expression. We will explore the art of being seen; allowing what is present, perhaps even beginning to enjoy it. *Can you let yourself be witnessed exactly as you are? Can you lean into the version of yourself you long to embody?* **Because you are both: a Work in Progress and a Masterpiece.** By the end of this journey, you will feel more connected. More alive. More magnetic. A living work of art. You will hold photographs that remind you of your aliveness. — **What to expect** You will receive approximately 10–15 professionally edited images of yourself in your full bloom, captured by Jaqueline Louan. There will also be a selection of beautiful group images. Some may be shared online, with the option for you to remain anonymous by covering your face. Clear guidance will be given in those moments. Additional photography rights for commercial use are available upon request. Otherwise, all images are intended for private use (including sharing on your personal social media). We will co-create a lush, sensual setting with fruits, flowers, and textiles, an immersive, aesthetic space to support your unfolding. A contract outlining all guidelines and agreements will be shared with you in advance and signed on the day. Light snacks and drinks will be lovingly prepared for you. — **Dresscode & what to bring** **The dress code is colorful lingerie: an expression of your essence, like a flower in a wild, blooming meadow.** You are asked to bring a bouquet of flowers that resonates with your aliveness. Make yourself a gift. What draws you in? What awakens your senses? Which flowers call you into deeper presence with this moment? — **Your host: Jaqueline Louan** Jaqueline Louan is an artist for the human heart. She is a muse that sees the muse in you and wants to awaken your ever-flowing oceanic nature. Her creations are a fusion of ritual and photoshoot, with the intention to dive deep into the mysteries of existence and to elevate the love for our human form and flesh. She weaves threads of enchantment and knows how to spark that flame in your soul that is here to burn in devotional prayer. She weaves spaces of enchantment, igniting the quiet flame within you that longs to burn in devotion. Having held witnessing photoshoots across the world, Jaqueline has guided countless women into deeper connection with their own aliveness, expression, and truth.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
