**Kings in Motion — Scarborough** ***Slow down to move forward.*** Join Rooted Kingship for a brotherhood walk at **Scarborough Bluffs / Bluffer’s Park**. At Rooted Kingship, we believe no man should have to do life alone. These walks are created for men to move stress out of the body, breathe deeper, connect with other brothers, and be seen without pressure to perform. Come as you are. Walk at your pace. Speak if you feel led. Listen if that’s what you need. **Why We Walk** This is more than a hike. It’s a space for brotherhood, reflection, mental wellness, and growth. We walk to clear our minds, strengthen our bodies, and remind ourselves that healing does not always happen sitting still. Sometimes a man has to walk it out before he can talk it out. **What to Expect** **1:30–2:00 PM — Arrival + Check-In** Please arrive early so we can greet everyone, get settled, and gather as a group. **2:00–2:10 PM — Welcome + Orientation** We’ll open with a short welcome, light stretching, and a simple check-in. **2:10–2:15 PM — Safety Brief + Ground Rules** We’ll review the walking route, pace options, group expectations, and safety reminders. **2:15–3:30 PM — Brotherhood Walk** We’ll walk together at a steady, conversational pace. There will be space for casual conversation, quiet reflection, and optional partner check-ins. **3:30–3:45 PM — Closing Circle** We’ll end with a short gratitude round and a take-home reflection prompt. **Rooted Kingship Agreements** *Brotherhood:* We look out for one another. *Authenticity:* Come as you are. No pressure to perform. *Growth*: We move our bodies and our stories forward. *Respect:* Every voice matters. No judgment, shaming, or talking down. *Positivity:* Bring your truth, but bring hope with it too. **Ground Rules** *Confidentiality:* What is shared on the walk stays with the group. *Support over advice:* Ask before giving advice. *Participation is optional:* You can speak, listen, or simply walk. All are welcome. *Respect the pace:* No brother gets left behind. **What to Bring** Please bring: * Water * Light snack * Weather-ready clothing * Comfortable walking shoes * Small backpack if needed * Phone fully charged * Any personal medication you may need, such as an inhaler, glucose tabs/juice, or EpiPen **Accessibility & Pace** This will be a relaxed community walk, not a race. Some areas may include pavement, packed dirt, uneven ground, small inclines, or roots. We will move at a group-friendly pace and take short breath breaks when needed. If you are new to walking, returning to movement, or recovering from an injury, you are still welcome. **Safety & Consent** This is a peer-led community walk. By registering, you acknowledge that outdoor walks may include natural risks such as slips, weather changes, uneven ground, or wildlife. You are responsible for your own health, pace, and decisions. If you feel unwell at any point, please let one of the group leads know. **Photos** We may take group photos, but only with consent. Before any photo is shared, we will ask for a clear thumbs-up or thumbs-down. No pressure. Your presence matters more than being posted. **Weather Plan** Light rain means we still walk. If there are thunderstorms, unsafe trail conditions, or severe weather, an update will be posted and sent to RSVPs before the event. *** **Age & pets:** 18+; pets are allowed. **Questions day‑of:** Text/Call Organizer at [Join WhatsApp Group ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IEqqsux2wd8EpOHkan2Cmx?mode=gi_t) Men Only [IG Page](https://www.instagram.com/rootedkingship?igsh=Zm44c2loNjlrOGw%3D&utm_source=qr) \- Follow **Tick check reminder (spring):** *Wear long sleeves/pants if you can, consider DEET or Icaridin repellent (follow the label), and do a tick check after the hike.*

**NEW LOCATION - Madison Avenue Pub** **Due to FIFA schedule our venue may be busy. Be sure to confirm venue/dates before coming!** Join your community of fellow Intuitives and MBTI nerds for a casual evening of engaging conversation. We get together every second Sunday – with a mix of regulars and new friends. There is no fee to attend, though we ask that you support the venue by ordering something to eat or drink. **Feel free to contact event host B. via Facebook/Meetup messenger, or text/call 416-712-8635 for directions**. About the venue: Madison Avenue Pub, 14 Madison Ave Nearest Subway: Spadina Map / Directions: https://maps.app.goo.gl/scdLEYqb9LNJWkgWA We make an effort to find pubs that are quiet and introvert friendly, with a section to ourselves. We make no effort to muffle our extroverts, but should they get out of hand, our resident INTJ will use their death stare, to pull them back in line.

Ciao a tutt\*! Let's meet Monday at 6.30pm at the Upper Arlington Library (Tremont Branch) in **Meeting Room A** to speak in Italian for 1 hour.

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
