Circling drop in evening
Circling is a 'present moment relating' practice, sometimes described as a relational meditation. It’s done in a group or with another person and invites feeling into the subtleties of one’s present experience in connection with others, often using words to share that experience.
**There is a beauty and power in the practice of circling and it is not for everyone. The practice may touch on some uncomfortable places, states, sensations or emotions. Circling invites a level of self responsibility and a willingness to set appropriate boundaries. Rather than a safe space think brave space, where we inquire and explore connection together.**
**Please contact me if you would like to discuss further whether the practice might be right for you.**
Both those new to Circling and those with more experience are very welcome.
To reserve your place, transfer £18 via my eventbrite page:

Any questions, please direct message me here or email:
[robyncontact365@gmail.com](http://robyncontact365@gmail.com)
We’ll start at 7pm (arrive from 6.50pm) and aim to finish at 9pm.
Opposite Elephant & Castle tube and Thameslink train station, and numerous bus routes.
The practices of Circling and Authentic Relating are often linked or spoken about together. Authentic Relating emerged from Circling and tends to be more structured, with “games” and sentence stems acting like guide rails for connection. Circling in its purest form is an interpersonal meditation and encourages self leadership, and is less facilitated. Both elicit intimacy and you may find quickly creating deep appreciation of the people you’re with and surprisingly meaningful connections. Always hard to define though and much better, in my opinion, to experience them a few times to really get a sense of the difference/overlaps.
**More about Circling and Terms of Service**
Circling is a practice that involves looking at and being intimate with the structures of one’s personal reality, which includes how we make sense of experience, individually and collectively. We find these practices to consistently deliver deeply meaningful experiences, and believe a few clarifications now will likely make this more accessible to you.
Because Circling is unique, carrying over assumptions from other practices can lead to misunderstandings about who we are, what we do, and how you are invited to engage. It is our intention to make it as clear as we can what Circling is and isn’t.
**Responsibility**
We see you as a free agent capable of honest self-assessment and responsible choice
This is an invitation to take responsibility for:
\- yourself and your experience
\- choices you’re making about what you’re accepting as true and significant
\- how you’re participating in and helping to sustain your situation
\- the beliefs and choices you’re bringing to the situation \(wittingly or unwittingly\) that are informing your experience\.
We refer generally to the willingness to take responsibility in these terms as “owning your experience.”
**Not Psychotherapy**
Circling as we practice it leads to transformational growth, but we do this through surrender, self-leadership, and interconnection rather than aiming for healing outcomes directly (like many modalities do). While honouring a wide variety of wisdom and psychological discernments from many schools of thought, we do not follow a therapeutic model of diagnosis and treatment. Our method is educational. Our emphasis is connection.
We are guides in a journey of presence, connection, and aliveness. We do not prescribe choices or actions. We do not see you as being in a therapeutic relationship with me. We work in the present moment, assuming wholeness that can include greater wholeness, exploring connection, staying mindful to notice the cost of reality choices and labels that too easily lead to misunderstanding or pathologizing. We bring a fresh set of eyes to what is happening, with the aim of understanding how updating our beliefs about what is happening can update our reality.
Circling is a practice of connection and meditation
\- Focus on the present moment\.
\- Maintain a non\-goal orientation that is encapsulated in the principle of “being with the other in their world\."
**Is this Right for You?**
Our workshops can be intense. People encounter places, states, emotions, beliefs, and sensations in themselves and others that are sometimes unfamiliar. We explore the unknown, the volatile, the ambiguous, as well as welcome emotions many deem as “negative” or “inappropriate” such as feelings of inadequacy, anger, sexuality, and joy. We refer to the willingness to feel difficult and uncomfortable truths as the “commitment to connection,” which of course includes a willingness to set appropriate boundaries, and speak a desire for space, distance, and non-contact. By attending our events you take responsibility for choosing to leave the practice or participate in any given moment—which might include getting intimate with these kinds of experiences.
We will often explore multiple sides of seeming opposites at once, such as independence and interdependence, chaos and order, agreement and disagreement. We believe this can reveal an underlying unity of the immediacy of experience.
If the above description of our workshops sounds potentially overwhelming or destabilizing for you, if you have mental illness or significant emotional challenges that you feel may be exacerbated by this type of transformational environment, or if you are not sure that you can be self-directed in taking care of your needs during the event, then we advise you not to enrol.
**By registering you acknowledge that you have read and agree to abide by these Terms of Service.**

Pablo Dominguez, A Tribute: Iberian Colours, Javier Ruibal, Chano Dominguez
In collaboration with the Instituto Cervantes and guitarist [Maria Camahort](https://mariacamahort.com/perfil/), Tuned In London presents a special fundraising tribute to London’s late great guitarist and percussionist Pablo Domínguez from Cadiz, featuring his fellow musicians, his friends and family: [Iberian Colours](https://mariacamahort.com/mcq-iberian-colours/), a quintet project sprung from a multi-genre collaboration of Spanish musicians who seek to bring to classical Chamber Music inspiration from the vivid colours, rhythms and textures of Spanish musical art and traditions. Award-winning guitar (Maria Camahort), soprano (Laura Ruhí-Vidal), cello (Sergio Serra), violin (Violeta García) and Pablo Domínguez' percussion (Demi García Sabat) come together to create something of great charisma and personality. Their set will include the première of a piece composed for Pablo.
[Javier Ruibal](https://www.javierruibal.com/), exceptional singer songwriter, composer, poet and writer, awarded the Premio Nacional de las Músicas Actuales 2017, collaborator and neighbour of Pablo, who has performed at Ronnie Scott's, WOMAD and the Union Chapel, will be bringing us his stunning voice and guitar, his deeply moving poetry, melodies and lyricism.
Our special guest, [Chano Domínguez](https://chanodominguez.com/), father of Pablo, is an acclaimed and much-garlanded composer and pianist who brings a fusion of jazz and flamenco to his world-renowned innovative playing.
On February 3rd, 2025, guitarist and percussionist Pablo Domínguez (Cádiz, Spain) passed away as a result of a serious illness. One year later, his presence is still deeply felt in Spain, here in the UK and across the world, and this concert stands as a tribute to his genuine spirit and singular musical voice. City Hope Church is the venue in which he performed the last of his seven Tuned In London concerts.
This will be VERY SPECIAL... we will celebrate Pablo in the company of his friends, his family and his fellow musicians. Do come, do tell your friends about it...
We will also be hoping to raise funds for Pablo's wife and young children who will be present. So even if you can't attend, you might donate...
Tickets are available on the [Tuned In London websit](https://tunedin.london/)e.
Hope you can come.
Doors open at 6.15 when the bar will be open. Music from 7pm.

Queer Spirit Full Moon Imbolc Circle
Radical Faeries and Queer Spirits gather in south London just before the Virgo full moon, the last full moon of winter!
This month we celebrate London's gay history - and specifically the spirit of the Mollies: 300 years ago London's queer subculture was already developing (and maybe had been for much longer). In February 1726 London's molly houses were raided, mollies arrested, tried and 3 men were sent to the gallows.
Mother Clap's molly house in Holborn was one of several establishments raided after an undercover surveillance operation by members of the Society for the Reformation of Manners, which had been exposing the existence of mollies since the start of the century - describing a scene that was already well formed: groups of men met regularly at molly ‘clubs’ where they used ‘maiden’ nicknames for one another, danced together, camped it up, sometimes dressed in drag on special ‘festival nights’, and had a specialized molly slang.
"Most of the sodomites convicted from 1698 through 1709 were entrapped due to the zeal of one man, Rev William Bray, the leading organizer of the Society for the Reformation of Manners. Most of the raids on molly houses through the 1720s were lead by six members of the Society who infiltrated the molly houses. The founding leaders of the Societies, such as Rev Bray, were dead by 1730, and due to a financial scandal the Societies formally disbanded in 1738. Relatively little is known about the queer subculture after that date: not because queers went underground, but because specific groups of moral reformers no longer worked actively to reveal them." Rictor Norton, A Critique of Social Constructionism and Postmodern Queer Theory, "Queer Subcultures," 24 October 2002, updated 19 June 2008 <[http://www.rictornorton.co.uk/social27.htm](http://www.rictornorton.co.uk/social27.htm?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExMVJ1VUZJR1R1aFdRSzVYanNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR7SsobcBWG67Bf1RdAuXPZ0xi6jsMd6mDmb932Wf9OAjUltFUCcDSNi6EUcIA_aem_7xebGXzZ_tJ_GtfA3zScoQ)>

inside Corsica’s walls.
For the underground,
for what moves beneath it all.
Azu Tiwaline guides the pulse,
raw, organic, deep.
Sounds that don’t just play,
they stay, they seep.
Before the dance, we gather,
arrive, connect, align.
Then we let the ritual
take body, heart, and mind.

Men of Unity: A Circle for Strength, Spirit & Connection
**Men of Unity** is a safe, welcoming space for men to connect, share, and grow together. In this circle, we explore what it means to live with purpose, integrity, and spiritual awareness in today’s world.
Through open dialogue, reflection, and mutual support, we learn to balance strength with compassion, confidence with humility, and action with mindfulness. Whether you’re seeking deeper spiritual connection, personal clarity, or simply a supportive brotherhood, this group invites you to bring your authentic self and grow in community.
Each gathering may include:
* Open discussion on real-life challenges and victories
* Guided reflection, prayer, or meditation
* Encouragement for living from truth, not fear
* Tools for emotional and spiritual growth
No preaching. No pressure. Just real men, real conversations, and real transformation.

Contra dance with Big Scioty on March 7 - First Congregational Church
**Caller: Frank Buschelmann**
**Band: The Rosenthorns**
**Big Scioty Contra Dance**
**temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215**
WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing!
Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor.
Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/)
Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!
