Yes it’s free. But please come only if you are ready. The 22-Strand DNA Activation Used For 3,000 Years To Awaken Human Potential For the first time a high level Initiate reveals the 3.034 year old method to awaken human potential.. this method is available to the public since 1997 and starts reaching the masses now! Humanity is ready! Before that date people like Da Vinci, Tesla, Michelangelo, Pythagoras, Goethe, Beethoven and many more received the private opportunity to study these secrets. There is a moment in every seeker's life when reading stops being enough. You've done the books. The podcasts. The meditation apps. The therapy. Maybe even plant medicine, breathwork, yoga teacher trainings, retreats in distant countries. And still — somewhere quiet inside you — that voice keeps whispering: "There has to be more." There is. For 3,000 years, an unbroken lineage of teachers — traceable back to King Salomon the Wise — has guarded a precise energetic transmission known as the Life Activation. A 22-strand DNA activation that awakens dormant aspects of your divine blueprint. The same activation that has changed the lives of thousands of people across more than 50 countries. On Thursday, in the heart of Berlin, I'm opening the doors for a free 2-hour evening to share what this path is — and what it has done for me. --- What You'll Discover — What the Life Activation actually is (and why every Mystery School student receives it first) — The lineage behind it — King Salomon, 3,000 years, 7 Mystery Schools worldwide — How it works with your chakras, magnetic energy, etheric body, and elemental forces — What people consistently report afterwards: clarity, vitality, release of inherited patterns, deep peace — Why it bypasses the mind entirely — no belief required, no understanding needed — Where this path can take you — Sacred Geometry, Kabbalah, Initiation, Healers Academy — Live Q&A — ask anything --- Who This Is For You belong in this room if you: → Feel stuck despite trying everything — therapy, self-help, coaching, retreats → Sense that there is more to life but cannot quite reach it → Are walking through a major transition — career, relationship, identity, crisis → Want to begin a real spiritual path — not just read about one → Feel drawn to ancient wisdom and lineage-based traditions → Are ready for change. Real change. Not more information. You also belong here if you have zero spiritual background. You don't need to believe in anything. You just need to show up. --- What This Is Not Not a sales pitch dressed as a talk. Not a "manifestation" workshop. Not therapy. Not channeling. Not New Age improvisation. This is ancient lineage work — the same teachings, transmitted the same way, for three millennia. --- Your Host I'm Paul Schulz — Ritual Master in the King Salomon Lineage of the Modern Mystery School, based in Berlin, teaching in English across Europe. I received my own Life Activation in this city, and it changed everything. Now I share this work with seekers ready for the next step. --- The Details 📍 Berlin — see above 🗓 every second Thursday 💶 FREE (limited seats — registration required) 🎙 Language: English 🎁 Bonus: open Q&A --- Reserve Your Seat The question is not whether you have time. The question is whether you can afford to keep living the way you have been living.

In this course, we will build on and review the topics from Casino III–V. To join, you should already be familiar with figures such as: **enchufla variations, desplazamientos (saloneo / paseos), Coca-Cola, vacílala**, and similar material. We will continue adding **footwork and arm styling (functional styling)** to enrich your dancing while keeping your movements clear, connected, and functional. ✨ In addition, we will explore how to enrich your dancing with elements from other Cuban dances. You will learn to use your body more consciously and to interpret the music through movement, rhythm, and personal expression — rather than simply connecting one figure after another. Cuban Salsa (Timba) is deeply connected to other Cuban dance and music traditions, such as **Rumba Guaguancó**. We want to show you how to integrate this richness into your dancing and express the music in a more authentic and musical way. 🎶✨ As always, we stay true to our philosophy: 💛 *It’s not the number of figures that makes you a “good dancer” — it’s your communication with your partner and with the music.* If you need more information or are unsure whether this level is right for you, feel free to contact us 😊 📧 [info@puntocubanoberlin.com](mailto:info@puntocubanoberlin.com) 📞 +49 155 100 966 28 **💛 What to Expect from a Free Trial Class** **If you choose to join a free trial class, please note that you will be joining an ongoing course.** **The purpose of the trial class is twofold: it gives you the opportunity to get an impression of us as teachers, our teaching style, and the level of the course, while also giving us the opportunity to get to know you as a dancer.** **We believe that one of the advantages of joining a dance school is being able to trust the teachers' experience and criteria.** **During the trial class, we not only help you decide whether the course feels right for you, but we also assess whether it is the best fit for your current level and learning journey.** **Our goal is not simply to place you in a class, but to help you find your happy place within our dance community — the environment where you can learn most comfortably, progress steadily, and enjoy dancing the most.** **The final decision regarding the level is therefore ultimately ours. If we notice that you are struggling significantly with the material, we may ask you to observe the remainder of the class and recommend a different level instead.** **This is not meant to embarrass you or make you feel uncomfortable. Quite the opposite: it allows us to stay true to our values regarding technique, learning quality, and the comfort of the students who have been learning and progressing in the course over time.** **In the long run, you'll probably be grateful for being placed in the level that supports your growth and enjoyment the most. 😊** **We are very much looking forward to meeting you and dancing with you!** **Yago, Helen, Pamela, Marion, Leo & Sylvaan**

**1 week of an exclusive, small-group ocean expedition for freedivers, photographers, and wildlife enthusiasts! If you love the ocean, this trip is for you.** Each year, the waters off South Africa’s Wild Coast transform into one of the planet’s most dramatic natural events. Billions of sardines migrate along the Wild Coast, making it one of the largest animal migrations on the planet. It attracts a diverse range of predators, from dolphins and sharks to whales and seabirds - all converging in a feeding spectacle few ever witness up close. The Sardine Run remains one of the most spectacular events on earth. Each day, ocean conditions, currents, and predator behavior determine what you’ll encounter. You’ll spend your days following the pulse of the sea - sometimes waiting, sometimes immersed in pure chaos and raw nature beauty. We partner with a trusted local dive operator with extensive experience running ocean expeditions along the Wild Coast. Their skilled skippers, dive crews, and wildlife spotters bring a deep understanding of the area’s conditions and marine life, ensuring safety, precision, and ethical wildlife encounters. 📅 Week 1: 5-12 July 2026, Week 2: 13-20 July 2026 📍Wild Coast, South Africa 👥 Max 7 guests · small group only 🤿 Open to freedivers, snorkelers & ocean enthusiasts WHAT'S INCLUDED ✅ 6 full days on the water ✅ 7 nights at Eco Swell Lodge (private en-suite chalet, ocean views) ✅ All meals · freediving gear · expert local crew ✅ Professional marine photography + 1 trip video ✅ Transport to/from Mthatha Airport ✅ Massage included 🙌 We will freedive & snorkel.

Die Bundesbank quittiert der Deutschen Wirtschaft im ersten Quartal 2026 erneut stagnation. Die deutsche Industrie könne aufgrund ihrer schwachen Wettbewerbsposition nur eingeschränkt vom zunehmenden Welthandel profitieren. Zudem bliebe die Kapazitätsauslastung in der Industrie niedrig und bremse weiterhin privaten Investitionen aus. Seit Jahren nun tritt die Deutsche Wirtschaft auf der Stelle. Die Politik hat bislang noch keinen nennenswerte Konjunkturimpulse auf den Weg gebracht. In einer Sache sind sich fast alle Einig: Es braucht wieder Wachstum. Aber warum stagniert unsere Wirtschaft überhaupt und was sollten oder können wir tun? Fragen die wir am 3. Juli versuchen auf den Grund zu gehen.

We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country. Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply. ### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?** Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment. ## **Why Join?** * **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance. * **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space. * **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection. ## **The Ideal Group Leader** The ideal group leader * Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community. * Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us. * Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind. * An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection. * An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms. * Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus. ## **Our Impact**  Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported: * A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being. * An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging. * Said they would return again. We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself. ### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based** Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach.
