**S'ancrer dans la sagesse des pierres pour inventer l'avenir** **Et si, pour ne pas sombrer dans le tumulte du monde, il fallait apprendre à regarder en nous ce qui ne change pas ?** **Une conférence de Fernand Figares** **Philosophe, Géologue, fondateur de New Acropolis Belgium** Dans le cadre de la journée internationale de la Terre Nous courons après l'avenir, mais avons-nous pris le temps d'écouter ce que le sol sous nos pieds a à nous dire ? La pierre n'est pas inerte : elle est la mémoire du monde, une architecture de patience et de stabilité. Nous vous invitons à nous rejoindre pour une conférence qui fait le pont entre les **sciences de la Terre** et la **philosophie pratique**. Nous explorerons comment la structure minérale du vivant peut nous enseigner une nouvelle forme de présence. En apprenant à « penser comme une montagne », nous ne regardons pas le passé : nous forgeons les racines nécessaires pour inventer un futur solide. **Un voyage intérieur pour découvrir :** * Ce que la géologie et le cycle des pierres nous enseignent sur notre propre résilience. * Comment l'ancrage philosophique permet de rester debout face aux incertitudes de l'époque. * L'art de transformer notre vision du temps pour agir avec la force du vivant. **Vous ne viendrez pas pour apprendre une théorie, mais pour vivre un changement d'échelle : celui où l'on cesse de subir le temps pour enfin l'habiter.** **PAF : 10 €** 15 € pour les deux conférences données dans le cadre de la journée internationale de la Terre

You can now join us for some friendly Badminton games on Wednesdays too! All levels welcome! IMPORTANT: in order to secure your place you’ll need to both book a spot on Meetup AND pay €8 by Sunday 18h00. This is to make sure we can cancel courts if demand isn’t there, and make sure we’re being fair to people on the waiting list. Refunds will only be possible after Monday AM if another player is definitely able to take your spot Always worth joining our Whatsapp group as well for faster, often better, updates: https://chat.whatsapp.com/FTipqtyIwcZLThbw8KpQtZ?mode=gi_t

**First time comers** Please make sure to read the rules and contact the organizer before! Otherwise you will be moved to waiting list. Apologies for inconvenience but we have to do it to avoid no-shows. **Games format.** 95% are double games (unless someone needs a break), typically 4 people play together 2 sets and then mix with players from other fields. We play with plastic shuttles - Yonex Mavis 2000 (which are provided). **Registration** If it's your first time, please send a private message to the host to confirm. No-shows are taken quite seriously because they unbalance the games a lot. Also once you register please keep an eye on you private messages, in case we need to contact you. **Players level** Having players with much less experience often unbalances the game making it much less interesting for more experienced players. We still try to be welcoming. As a rule of thumb, if you know what a "clear" is, you are welcome to join. (Note that on Sundays the attitude is a bit more relaxed than on Wednesdays, it's the weekend after all ;) ) Otherwise, feel free to get in touch with me (Timur) and we can see if we can arrange so you and existing players can have good experience playing. **Price and payments** The price of participation is EUR 8.95. Payment is on-site in cash, or via payconiq. Info provided during or shortly after the event. **Cancelations and no-shows** * Switches and cancellations are free of charge if done more than 50 hours before the start of the matches * If you cancel within the 50-hour window before the event starts, you will be placed on the wait-list for the next week's event, whether or not a replacement is found. If no replacement is secured, you'll still need to cover your share of the costs.

We do cycles of 4-6 weeks, with a progressive intensity, and the last session is lighter. Program: 15’ warm up **To be defined** Cool down to get back to the starting point… or more S=All out sprint RF = Run fast, at MAS (Maximum aerobic speed) CF = Run comfortably fast (1h threshold) J = Jog, recuperation Notes: It should take about one hour in total, as the cool down will end when we reach back to the meeting point. It's NOT required to have an activity tracker or smart watch to be able to follow the program, as I'll be giving signals with a whistle. For the "run" part, you can follow your own pace and we'll be regrouping in the "jog" part. Intervals training is not advised for total beginners. To have an idea, the average pace at the warm up is around 5'45"/km-6'/km so this pace should feel very comfortable ***Acknowledgement of member responsibility and release of liability.*** By signing up for this event, you agree to release the organizers from any responsibility and liability in all claims.

Come and join this 15+ km hike in the Forest de Soigne. The walk will give us a true (!) forest spring experience 😊 with young leafs, anemone and hyacinths. 💮🪻 Participants can use either bicycle, car or train to get to the assembly point Parking PLEK Restaurant & Coworking, Duboislaan 1, 1560 Hoeilaart. A train will stop at 10:22 at station Groenendaal, from where it takes 15 minutes to the car park. This train stops at many stations in Brussels, i.e. Central 09:52, Schuman 10:06, Bosvoorde 10:18. We will leave at 10:45 from the car park. The circuit allows us to have a nice drink on the terrace before returning to our transport. There's only one train per hour back to Brussels, so either 14:32 or 15:32. During the hike we will stop for a bring-your-own-lunch and there is the promise of passing by some undergrowth beautifully covered by hyacinths. and that is an understatement. 😊 Come along for this talk and walk!
