Social Networking

Hi Ladies. The second Meetup of the year!! We are getting together for a social at Nest. The Berlin Black Women Meetup group is a great place to warm your heart making new friends and catching up with old ones. As yo know, we are a casual group, so turn up when you wish and there will be a seat saved for you and a friendly welcome. Just be sure to order food or drinks from the venue, as support is mutual. Can't wait to see you all. It's always a deeply wonderful experience. See you there xx

To find us, look out for "The Red Stonker" which looks like: https://meetu.ps/3mjhSm [Use a web browser, as the App does not go to the right place] Every Friday evening we gather for an English speaking meetup for some social drinks. The venue varies from week to week, so please check the location for each event. If you have any suggestions for where you might like to meet next time, please send me a message. If you run a biergarten, bar, or other suitable location and would like some customers, send me a message. The number of attendees varies as you can see from the past events, but there is usually at least 50. We have a mix of nationals and internationals working, studying, visiting, or just living in Berlin. Free to attend, everybody is welcome, so grab a drink and come say hi.

Join us for a fun **Speed Friendship & Social Meetup** at **Pizza Max Schöneberg**. This is a great chance to meet new people, have good conversations, and make new friends in a relaxed and informal environment. **What to expect** * Short conversations with different people * Friendly and social atmosphere * Meet new friends in Berlin **Special offer** Participants get **10% off on dine-in orders**, so enjoy delicious pizza while meeting new people. 🍕 **What to bring** Just bring yourself and a positive attitude. **How to find the group** Look for the **Meetup table inside the restaurant** when you arrive. Come together, enjoy pizza, and make new friends! 🤝🍕

**Tired of Endless Swiping?** You’re not the only one. Most people who join us say the same thing: **Dating started to feel rushed, performative, or strangely disconnected.** So we built something different. Conscious Connections Club hosts Relational Labs — **guided social experiences** designed to spark real conversation, emotional depth, and authentic connection. Events now run in **40+ cities across six continents**, bringing together singles who value curiosity, presence, and meaningful interaction. Before joining an event, everyone attends a short introduction call so you can understand the space and decide if it feels like your kind of people. **[Get the Zoom Link →](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join)** *** **What Happens On The Call** This is a 35-minute alignment call with the founder. On the call you’ll learn: • why this community was created • how Relational Labs are different from speed dating or typical singles events • how we curate intentional spaces across 40+ cities • what actually happens at the events • why many people return again and again Some calls have two people, others twenty or more. You’re welcome to simply listen and get a feel for the space. Many people attend their first event alone — and most leave having met someone they genuinely want to see again. Sometimes it becomes friendship. Sometimes romance. Often it's simply the relief of realizing you're not the only one craving deeper connection. *** **[See If This Is Your Scene →](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join)** *** **Why We Require This Call** The introduction helps us keep events intentional, respectful, and aligned. It also gives you the chance to decide if the experience feels right for you before joining a live event. No pressure. Just clarity. *** **[Get the Zoom Link →](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join)**

[*Registration form required below*] **Interested in Japanese sword fighting or Japanese culture? Come join a trial and experience the traditional Samurai art at Katori Shintō-ryū in Schöneberg.** **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.
