This is a **cutting shapes (UK shuffle)** class for beginner and intermediate shufflers. This time, we'll focus on **basic cutting shapes steps** and practice a few short combos (comining two or three steps). **Beginner shufflers** will have the chance to learn these basic steps for the first time or get (another) chance to practice them. **Intermediate shufflers** will learn to vary these basic steps with additional leg and arm movements, learn to combine them in new ways and keep practicing their foundations. If you're a complete beginner and wanna try some basic moves by yourself before the class, you can watch this video on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xOAJA598uk But you don't have to - don't worry and come just by! **What you need to bring with you:** **Shoes**: If you'd prefer not to shuffle in socks, please bring a pair of dedicated clean athletic shoes with white soles. **Water**: because Shuffling is like an intense cardio workout :) Teacher: Ina P.S.

Liebe Studentinnen und Studenten der englischen und deutschen Sprachen, am Sonntag 28. Dezember besuchen wir Zeiss-Großplanetarium für die Sternstunde um 16:30. [https://www.planetarium.berlin/veranstaltungen/sternstunde](https://www.planetarium.berlin/veranstaltungen/sternstunde) Man braucht eine Eintrittskarte... [https://planetarium-berlintop3.ticketfritz.de/Event/Detail?Event=9064](https://planetarium-berlintop3.ticketfritz.de/Event/Detail?Event=9064) Diese Sternstunde ist auf Deutsch! Von Erfahrung weiß ich, dass man ziemlich gutes Deutsch haben muss, um eine Sternstunde zu verstehen. Setzt euch immer wo ihr wollt und wo ihr Plätze finden könnt. Persönlich habe ich den Sitz 22, Reihe 10, Block Nord. Wenn ihr Glück habt und ihr Plätze neben mir findet ist es umso besser. Wir begrüßen uns um 15:30 Uhr bei MATANGA - Cafe & Co., Dunkerstraße, in der Nähe von S Greifswalder Straße, und 16 Uhr laufen wir nach dem Planetarium. Wir können beides über die Signalgruppe und Meetup Chat kommunizieren. Ein Link zur Signalgruppe wird im Kommentar gegeben. Mir wurde die Frage gestellt „Hat die Sternstunde etwas mit Poetry zu tun? Da steht nichts von Poetry...“ Naja, Dichter nehmen oft Bezug auf die Sterne, glaube ich. Das ist eine Verweisung in die Wissenschaft, halt einen Vorschlag, dass man den Kopf hochhalten und aufrechterhalten solle. Zum Beispiel, der Dichter Philip Larkin im Gedicht ‚The North Ship‘, im ersten Gedicht, erzählt „Under a fire-spilling star,“. Für Poetry gibt es den Zusammenhang von den Sternen, und wenn man keine Kenntnis von diesem Zusammenhang hat, kann man die Gedichte nicht ganz gut lesen. Denn wir uns für das Lesen von Gedichten interessieren, sind Sternstunden gut. Kenntnis von den Sternen sind auch gut wenn man unterwegs ist, und wir möchten oft unterwegs sein. Auf die Sternstunde, das Gespräch, und die Gesellschaft freuen wir uns!!

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. If the weather cooperates we will be meeting in the patio. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

Wouldn’t it be nice to find a way to overcome your feelings of anger so that you not only control them, but you no longer have the urge to lose your temper in the first place? And how about being able to shake off resentments, persistent annoyance, or even feelings of vengeance? We’d like to invite you to an event on how to overcome anger and resentment. We will show you why people have trouble controlling their temper and where resentment comes from. Flaring anger can ruin a meeting, a relationship, an opportunity, or just about any aspect of life. Worst of all, outbursts towards our family can create hurt that lingers throughout a lifetime. You want to have a civil conversation, and you’ve vowed that you wouldn’t lose your temper, but a few minutes later, the anger flares up. Maybe you’ve realized that being angry doesn’t get you what you want so you internalize it. Or maybe you avoid the knockdown, drag-out fights, but stewing in resentment is exhausting and takes an emotional toll. In this event we show you how to get to the root of your anger so that it stops being an issue to you. You’ll also learn why people harbor resentments and how to move on. Don't continue to struggle, make a difference in your life, and join us for this local event. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This Meetup is sponsored by your local Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.

The aim of this group is to get together and practice our German. Doesn’t matter if are a beginner or a native speaker. The goal is to speak and improve our German. Everyone is welcome! If the weather is good, look for us in the Biergarten. Pro Tip: Get there before 6:00 for happy hour pricing.

Early-bird coffee and conversation at [5 Bean Coffee](https://5beancoffee.com/)!

Come and join our lively Japanese language meetup, where Japanese language learners and native speakers come together to learn, play, and connect. We’ll practice through fun games and interactive conversation in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Whether you’re just starting out, more advanced, or a native speaker who enjoys helping others, everyone is encouraged to join and participate. After the library we'll take a leisurely walk together to get food/drinks. There are many options around including North Market Bridge Park. It's a perfect opportunity to continue our conversations and enjoy each other's company over a meal.
