[*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.

**REGISTER FOR THE EVENT BY DOWNLOADING THE [WEMEET APP HERE.](b069c87c-87a8-421a-8007-bc1949fa7f61)** Neu in Berlin? Alte Freunde zu beschäftigt? Zeit, das zu ändern! Wir treffen uns einmal pro Woche, um gemeinsam neue Events zu erleben, neue Leute kennenzulernen und einfach eine gute Zeit zu haben. Bei **Drinks & New Friends** geht es darum, coole, gemütliche Ecken zu entdecken. Dich erwarten Drinks, Snacks, Musik und gute Gespräche – lass dich überraschen und lerne entspannt neue Freundschaften kennen. 🤝 **Kein Ghosting. Kein Drama.** Wer sich anmeldet, kommt auch. Und wenn nicht: bitte rechtzeitig absagen, damit niemand allein warten muss. Wir übernehmen Organisation und Reservierung. Du bringst Offenheit mit – mehr braucht es nicht! **Komm vorbei, hab Spaß und lerne deine neuen Freunde kennen! 💚**

The "classical" bookswap is simple: * We meet in a café and put the book(s) we brought down on the tables. * We browse and discuss the books with one another while sipping coffee or hot chocolate, or eating cake. * We write our names down on any books we’d like to take home (post-its and pens provided). * At the end of the evening, negotiate any books that are contended and take a new-to-you book home! Books/happiness shared are books/happiness multiplied! A Bookswap is 10 times better than a Book Club because you can talk about ALL the books instead of just one! This is a great way to give your books a new home and make room for new books: that book you feel guilty for not having read even though it's been sitting on your bedside table for the last 5 years, the book you liked but didn't love, the book you loved so much you want everyone to read it, the book you somehow own three copies of, that book you absolutely hated even though everyone else loves it, and so on. Moreover, you will meet fellow readers, get a new book or two, and several book recommendations. We’ve often had readers experience books they wouldn't normally buy and enjoy it. GROUP EXPECTATIONS for PLEASANT SWAPPING * Please bring a book! It's not that you bring one you take one, but do try your best to bring something. * Books stay on the tables, open for sharing, until you are ready to leave so that everyone can have a look. We are notably not first come first serve. Please wait until you are leaving to bag the book. * If two or more people want the only copy of a book, negotiate. Maybe one of you reads it first and then gives it to the others. Or perhaps they have found another book instead. Or leave it to fate and toss a coin. The best part: now you have found somebody whose taste you can really admire. In any case, please don't walk away with a book with several names on it without letting the others know. These negotiations are fun and easy, so don't shy away from a book because there's already a name on it, and feel free to put your name on as many books as you find interesting. It's not that you bring one you take one; you may take as many as you can negotiate. * Political discussions with consent: make sure the people you are talking to would like to have a political discussion with you. * Please respect this space as first and foremost a community for connecting readers over their love of books and reading, stories, and narratives of all sorts. Please be respectful of tastes and opinions. * If something is bothering you, please reach out to the organizers, and we'll do our best to resolve it. * Lastly, don't expect your book back. It will find a new home. If you love it, let it go. Major LANGUAGES (and genres) of this meetup: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian; Fiction, Non-Fiction, Serious Reading, Light Fun, “classics", Krimis, Booker winners, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Self-Help and more. You never know who can read what languages, and there's no accounting for taste. We are a delightful and international group of readers. We look forward to swapping with you!

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*. Of course, if all you want is just some quiet time, your home or a library is perfect.

This is a 3 phase meetup. You can come at any time. 1.) 6:30 - 6:45 p.m.: Gathering at the meeting spot (see gmaps link!) 2.) 6:45 - 7:15 p.m.: Walk & Talk to the Kerb food court. 3.) 7:15 - 10:00 p.m.: Immerse conversations in the Kerb food court. 🪑: Reserved tables for the meetup. **1.) Meeting spot is inside the Berlin Mall (near Hugo Boss)** Click on the map or just copy this link into your browser: [https://goo.gl/maps/oVPKSY7X1YmAVkvv8](https://goo.gl/maps/oVPKSY7X1YmAVkvv8) The exact meeting spot can also be seen in the photo depicted below (see red arrow). Look for a meetup sign or organizer wearing a black or red lanyard with "staff" written on it. ***Best ways to get there:*** 1\. U\-Bahn \(subway\): Get off at Anton-Wilhelm-Amo-Straße (former Mohrenstraße) via U2 and just walk 3 min to the mall. 2\. Bus: If you change at main station you can take the M41 or M85 to S Potsdamer Platz /Voßstr. and walk to the mall. **2.) Walk & Talk to the Kerb food court** The best part of this Meetup! Most of the walk will consist a underground route all the way to the Kerb. *Who is this meetup for:* 1\. Internationals who want to practice German or any other language\. 2\. Germans who want to improve their language skills\. 3\. Anyone who is interested in cultural exchange and wants to socialize\. *What you can expect:* 1\. A professionally organized meetup that can adapt to any changes given the current situation\. 2\. A Walk & Talk to break the ice\. 3\. A collaborating venue where you can further socialize with other members\. *important:* This event is at the same time and meeting location like the "Asian Languages & Culture Exchange 🍜日本語, 한국어, 汉语🍥" one. So I'm basically organizing 2 events at the same time which means that you can expect way more people than on the list. *** Whenever you attend a meetup, the most common as well as first question you get is: "Where are you from?" You probably heard this question a million times. Well, at least I did. From my own experience of attending over 200 international meetups in various countries such as Germany, Japan, Australia and Thailand, I can tell you that asking for the name is a better approach. “A person’s name is to that person, the sweetest, most important sound in any language.” - Dale Carnegie If you really want to connect with like-minded people you should remember their name, but you don't have to remember every persons name you've talked you. Be picky about that, don't be me who can somehow remember everyones name easily. Don't tell yourself sth. like "I'm bad at remembering names." It's all about developing the habit of asking for a name and keep the conversation going on. Furthermore, you want to learn German or any other language. Learning the local language is crucial to connect with the locals and developing a true friendship. This can be accomplished with immersion. My goal is to inspire you to go out of your comfort zone and improve yourself each time you join this meetup.

**Help Other Founders Improve their Idea** This is a collaborative meetup where every participant can briefly present their business or project idea and receive questions, correction, and constructive feedback from the group. The goal is to help you see blind spots, clarify your value proposition, and improve your idea before you invest a lot of time or money.​ **How it works:** * Each person gets a few minutes to explain their idea (problem, solution, target customer). * The group then asks clarifying questions and offers suggestions, alternatives, or risks to consider.​ * A facilitator keeps the discussion respectful, time-boxed, and focused so everyone gets a turn. **Who it’s for:** * Early-stage founders, students, or side-project builders * People who have an idea but are unsure if it’s clear, realistic, or attractive to customers​ **Outcome:** You leave with sharper ideas, actionable next steps, and a supportive founder network in Berlin.

Freunde finden – Dein Weg zu authentischen Freundschaften, tiefen Beziehungen und einem Umfeld, das dich wirklich stärkt Warum fühlen sich so viele Menschen trotz Social Media, Events und Kontakte innerlich allein? Warum wiederholen sich immer wieder dieselben Beziehungsmuster – oberflächlich, anstrengend oder einseitig? In diesem Vortrag geht es nicht um Smalltalk-Tipps oder oberflächliches Netzwerken. Es geht um echte Verbindung. Du erfährst: welche unbewussten Muster dich bisher in Beziehungen und Freundschaften blockieren warum Einsamkeit kein persönliches Versagen ist – sondern ein lösbares Signal wie du lernst, dich authentisch zu zeigen, ohne dich zu verbiegen oder anzupassen wie du Menschen anziehst, die dich unterstützen, fördern und ehrlich hinter dir stehen und wie du dich klar von Kontakten löst, die dir Energie ziehen oder dich kleinhalten Dieser Vortrag verbindet Selbstreflexion, klare Wahrheiten und praktische Impulse, die du sofort im Alltag anwenden kannst. Du gehst nicht nur mit Inspiration nach Hause – sondern mit einem neuen Blick auf dich selbst und dein Umfeld. Für alle, die: sich nach echten Freundschaften sehnen genug haben von oberflächlichen Kontakten ihr Umfeld bewusst gestalten wollen und bereit sind, Verantwortung für ihre Beziehungen zu übernehmen Einsamkeit endet dort, wo echte Verbindung beginnt. Wenn du spürst, dass da mehr für dich möglich ist – dann ist dieser Vortrag für dich. Einlass ab 14:45 Uhr möglich Vortragsstart: 15:30 Uhr Vor und nach dem Vortrag gibt es die Möglichkeit zu Netzwerken und sich mit tollen Menschen auszutauschen. Ich freue mich Dich kennenzulernen. Pascal

Hello everyone! For our first dinner together, we’re keeping things low-key and casual. Take a look at the menu and let us know what you think we want this to be easy, relaxed, and enjoyable for everyone. Quick housekeeping note: many restaurants require most of the party to be present before seating. No-shows impact the entire group, so if someone repeatedly commits and doesn’t show more than once, we’ll have to remove you from future dinners to keep things fair and smooth for everyone. Looking forward to a great night and even better conversations 🍽️✨
