**[Don't forget to join our community whatsapp group for latest updates!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/LuRw9VfBIKlEfwO2PAqow3)** The Art of Seduction 🖤 My heels class is called the art of seduction because it is so much more than just a heels class, I am building a community of like minded women, who want to learn how to express their unique sensuality. After 20+ years of studying dance and years of studying acting, burlesque, and psychology. I have created a class that combines all of these methodologies into helping women express themselves and step into their power. In this class you will be learning choreography and you will have a chance to perform and make a professional video at the end of the series. I will be teaching you how to find your unique expression of sensuality, technique from multiple styles of dance including ballet to help you dance more comfortably in heels, body movement, proper form for maximum flexibility, and how to create stage presence and character. I’m so excited to open this class here in Barcelona after years of teaching in Los Angeles. **What to bring?** I recommend everyone bring a journal because I want us to write about our experience so we can see the growth not just in our dance but in ourselves. I also recommend bringing heels with an ankle strap so they don’t fall off when you dance. But you are welcome to learn this style of dance in any shoes you feel comfortable in, or even socks. As for what clothes to wear I recommend wearing whatever makes you feel sexiest but does not restrict movement. Entree for the class is 7 euro paid at the entrance. More info follow @devonkatrina

Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

***Can meditation change your genes?*** Most of us have been told that meditation is good for us. Fewer of us know why, and almost nobody is asking the really wild question: can a regular mindfulness practice actually change how your genes express themselves? **[Tickets must be purchased in advance via LUMA - from 9 Euros.](https://luma.com/c3qfc5s8?utm_source=MEETUP)** Dr. Iñaki Martín-Subero is the person best placed to answer that. He's an ICREA Research Professor at IDIBAPS of Barcelona and one of Spain's leading epigenomics researchers, with 300 peer-reviewed publications in journals like Nature, Nature Genetics and Cancer Cell. He's also been meditating for 30 years, leads workshops in Taoist meditative practices and lucid dreaming, teaches at the Master on Mindfulness in Health of the University of Barcelona, and collaborates in a multidisciplinary mindfulness research programme with the Complutense University of Madrid, Nirakara and the Hygeia Foundation. In this talk, we'll explore: * What the field of epigenetics is and why it matters for how you live. * What the current science says about meditation and the epigenome. * Where the field is heading as researchers start to close the gap between ancient practice and molecular biology. Expect honest answers, genuinely surprising science, and the rare experience of hearing someone who embodies both sides of the conversation.

Speaker: Utku Can Ozturk, Data Scientist and main developer of the Gigaspatial project Geospatial data is critical for global development, but practitioners constantly battle fragmented data, scaling issues, and complex integrations across vector and raster formats. Enter GigaSpatial, an open-source Python library built by UNICEF’s Giga initiative to help connect every school in the world to the internet. In this talk, we will explore the architecture behind GigaSpatial and how it replaces the need to stitch together a dozen different tools to answer a single spatial question. We will dive into how the library orchestrates data collection, transformation, and standardisation pipelines at scale. By leveraging strict configuration validation, object-oriented data connectors, and seamless multi-store management, GigaSpatial provides a unified API to wrangle spatial data. Finally, we’ll look at real-world applications across 30 countries, from validating point-of-interest data against multiple global building footprints to running zonal aggregations using different grid systems. Whether you are a data engineer, a GIS professional, or a Python developer interested in open-source architecture, you might find this talk an interesting look into how we build robust spatial pipelines; and we would love to explore ways you can contribute to this global mission. 📅 **Date:** 21 May ⏰ **Start time:** 19:00 h 📍 **Location:** [Akasha Hub](https://maps.app.goo.gl/CZE8q8uaag8UgnRCA) \- Carrer de la Verneda\, 19\, Nau 1 · Barcelona

Our first Technoverts meetup had a great turnout, so we're doing it again, this time with an optional conversation theme: **How people are actually using AI in everyday work and life**. This is not a panel or presentation, and I do not have a fixed agenda, it's just a relaxed coffee conversation for people in tech (or tech-adjacent fields) who are curious about practical AI use cases, useful tools, workflow hacks, weird experiments, and what's generally helping people right now. *Topics might include:* * AI tools people actually use at work * Productivity and automation * Prompting successes and failures * Writing, coding, research, analytics and creative use cases * What feels overhyped vs. genuinely useful. No expertise is required. It's completely fine to come mostly curious, skeptical, or just interested in meeting thoughtful people in tech. *What to expect:* * Low pressure conversation * A mix of tech talk and normal conversation Location: (Subject to change as I do more research) High Point Pub Tyson's Whole Foods, 1635 Boro Pl. (This is the cafe space on the second floor of the Whole Foods at the Boro, Tysons. Parking is free in the garage with validation). Time: 11 am (this is when the cafe opens). Everyone covers their own coffee/snacks. I'll arrive early and grab a table and will post details about location in the event discussion. Address: 1635 Boro Pl. Whole Foods 2nd Floor Cafe

Non-programmers are absolutely welcome—you don’t need to know how to code to join. This meetup is for anyone interested in tech. You can share what you’re working on, propose ideas, or just talk about technology. We typically meet once a month at the Centreville Regional Library, with occasional meetups in Chantilly or other nearby libraries depending on availability. We usually start with a totally optional intro circle. You can share as much or as little as you’d like—your name, background, interests, what you’re working on, or simply pass and listen. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to reach out: timothyfilippone@gmail.com
