Hatha Yoga open level class in Etterbeek
* **Booking + advance payment is necessary please in our online booking system** [click here](https://www.danceandzumbafun.com/book.html)
**YOGA IS FOR EVERYONE -** **also for you :)** no matter your age, weight or physical shape. This is an «**open level**» class where beginners and experienced practioners are welcome! Our excellent teacher had 16 years' experience. She provides alternative postures during the class, adapted to your level, and will gently correct you when needed.
Hatha yoga is ideal if you are looking to re-connect with your body and improve your physical health. It's practiced more slowly and with more static hold than other yoga types, allowing time to sink into deeper poses. It's thus ideal for **efficient stretching**, and a good choice for beginners.
Thanks to your yoga practice you will **develop strength, increase flexibility, your physical balance and stability, and can also find inner balance and strengthen yourself mentally.**
Our venue is spacious: you don't have to be too close to each other and it's easy to see the teacher. We ventilate with fresh air (not air condition). Please remember to bring your mat!

Debate Night: Sex Positivism
For much of modern history, conversations about sex have been shaped as much by silence as by expression. In many societies, desire was confined to narrow norms, regulated by religion, tradition, and law, leaving little room for individual agency or open discussion. The sexual liberation movements of the 20th century challenged these constraints, advocating for dismantling of stigma. What followed was a profound cultural shift: topics once considered taboo entered public discourse, and personal freedom in matters of intimacy became a widely embraced ideal.
Today, we find ourselves in a very different landscape, one where the boundaries of that freedom continue to expand and evolve. Norms are being renegotiated in real time, and practices once seen as fringe are increasingly visible, discussed, and, in some cases, normalized. This raises an important question: how do we assess the direction and impact of these changes? As society continues to redefine its relationship with sexuality, the line between liberation and excess becomes a subject of growing debate, one that invites us to reflect not just on where we came from, but on where we are headed.
This debate will follow a British Parliamentary format with eight debaters split into **four teams of two.**
Participants who wish to speak are highly encouraged to bring a paper and pen. You are welcome to participate even if you have no prior debating experience.
We aim for debates that are respectful, constructive, and welcoming:
* **Respect ideas and people** Listen actively, stay quiet while others speak, and debate arguments, not identities or beliefs.
* **Be concise and civil** Keep questions short and relevant; avoid hostility, hate speech, or discrimination.
* **Respect boundaries and time** No unwanted advances or suggestive behavior; arrive on time to avoid disrupting the debate.
* **Follow moderators** They guide the discussion and ensure fairness.

Deep Conversation - Question Chosen in Session
Welcome to our weekly event in the upstairs room of The Sister Café, rue Chair et Pain 3, one block from the Grand Place. Please get there early enough to order your drink at the bar first. Thank you!
After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations.
Past questions have been wide and not confined to academic philosophy:
What is a genuine friend?
Is social media turning us into emotional zombies?
Do we lose some of the experience of things by defining them?
Are we driven by sex?
Is loneliness a personal failure?
Is morality relative?
**Crucially, be kind and respectful and generous** in your disagreements; remember how much you personally enjoy someone else proving you wrong before celebrating your cutting counterexamples.

CBusData: The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again.
We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all.
Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

We're going to try a new dojo location for a few weeks and see how it works
Dojos are informal Python group study sessions where everyone interested in Python gathers to learn about Python, help others with Python, or just hang out. Everyone is welcome from Python beginners to experts. Bringing a laptop is encouraged (we'll have extension cords and power strips). If there's something you want to learn leave a comment on this invite so we can plan ahead.
We're looking for speakers for our Monthly Meetups! Fill out the form if you are interested in presenting to the Python Community.
