Ecstatic Dance Milano - Flow of the Elements
Ecstatic Dance Milano - Flow of the Elements
VENERDI' 13 Marzo 2025 Dalle 21:00 Alle 23:30 @ArteMadia _ zona NoLo Milano Che cos'è l'ecstatic dance? L'Ecstatic Dance è un processo che ti permette di scoprire la tua danza personale, così unica che non può essere riprodotta da nessun altro. La danza consapevole e libera è il linguaggio d'elezione per esprimere in modo diretto e primordiale la nostra energia più pura. Questa esperienza ci dona una libertà infinita dai vincoli e dai giudizi in modo che possiamo espandere il nostro potenziale e muoverci fino a liberare la vitalità più autentica che è in noi. Il Dance floor assume un'energia esplosiva quando tutti si lasciano andare alla propria danza e l'estasi naturale viene condivisa. Ti chiediamo gentilmente di arrivare in orario così da poter incominciare tutti insieme. TIME TABLE: 21:00 Welcome 21:15 Warm Up: Francesca La notte 21:30 Ecstatic Dance: Dj Massi The Lokett 23.00 : Playing and Sharing 23:30 Closing Circle
Merenda & Style: scopri il tuo stile personale!
Merenda & Style: scopri il tuo stile personale!
Ti sei mai chiestə qual è davvero il tuo stile? Quello che ti rappresenta, ti fa sentire a tuo agio e racconta chi sei, al di là delle mode del momento? Ho creato questo evento proprio per rispondere a questa domanda, in modo leggero, conviviale e super piacevole 🥐☕ Nel pomeriggio faremo insieme un percorso di scoperta dello stile personale: ogni partecipante compilerà un questionario guidato che ci aiuterà a capire gusti, abitudini, esigenze e desideri legati all’abbigliamento e all’immagine. ✨ Cosa succederà durante l'evento? • merenda condivisa e chiacchiere in un’atmosfera rilassata • compilazione del questionario sullo stile personale • analisi delle risposte e individuazione del tuo stile di riferimento • consigli pratici su come valorizzarlo nella vita di tutti i giorni (outfit, capi chiave, vibe generale) Non serve “capire di moda” né avere uno stile già definito: questo evento è pensato proprio per chi vuole fare chiarezza, sperimentare e conoscersi meglio, senza giudizi e senza rigidità. L'evento è aperto a tuttə, uomini e donne, e si svolgerà in un clima informale, accogliente e conviviale 💛 Un momento per mangiare bene, confrontarsi e uscire con più consapevolezza sul proprio stile. 👉 NOTA IMPORTANTE! La tua partecipazione sarà confermata solo dopo il ricevimento della quota tramite PayPal (scegliendo l’opzione “Amici e parenti”). 🙂 Al locale sarà richiesto un contributo di 10€ per la merenda, che comprende una consumazione dalla caffetteria e uno snack dolce a scelta tra le proposte del locale, da pagare direttamente in loco. ☕🍰 ✨ Vieni per la merenda, resta per scoprire cosa racconta davvero il tuo stile.

Primo incontro
Primo incontro
Facciamo un primo incontro per conoscerci e scegliere il primo libro da leggere; abbiamo già fatto una selezione tra cui scegliere: - Fourth wing (3 numeri) - Montagne fatte di vetro (1) - The Knight and the Moth (2) - Tempesta e furia (3) - Divini rivali (2) MA se avete qualche proposta non esitate a scriverla! Vorremmo qualcosa che non sia troppo lungo e che sia già “finito” in modo da non dover aspettare l’uscita (essendo il primo che leggiamo insieme)
Aperitivo and Hang-out in English
Aperitivo and Hang-out in English
Hello everybody, I usually look for events on Saturdays but I can hardly ever find any, so I asked myself, "Why don't I organise one ?" The idea is to meet at **Next Bar in Via Crema 7** (Very close to P.ta Romana underground station / yellow line) at **18:00** and hang out there for some time. You can also enjoy drinks and eat for 13 Euros (p.s. the buffet is mind-blowing). Guests are required to buy their first drinks upon entry. I kindly encourage you to RSVP during the week if you can. I really hope to meet you on Saturday! Don't worry if you can't see many people who've RSVPed, the event is advertised on other platforms, so there will be plenty of people to mingle with. When you get there ask for **Riccardo**. Feel free to WhatsApp me at **+39 334 283 1963** During the event, you'll have the opportunity to join our WhatsApp group by scanning QR codes displayed on the tables to stay in touch. Looking forward to a great time together!

Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
Let's try a Friday Night Fish Fry!
We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM. It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!

CMG Special Event: OSCAR PARTY & RED CARPET BASH at the Drexel Theatre!
CMG Special Event: OSCAR PARTY & RED CARPET BASH at the Drexel Theatre!
Join us as we get together for a CMG-favorite event, the OSCAR PARTY AND RED CARPET BASH at the Drexel Theatre! The highlight of the movie year live on the big screen always makes for a fun and memorable evening! Here are details for this event: WHAT TO EXPECT: This year’s ceremony will be hosted once again by Conan O’Brien. In addition to the Oscars on the big screen, your ticket includes a Meal Deal from the Drexel’s new food partner Newfangled Kitchen (I’m checking on vegetarian/vegan options) along with unlimited popcorn and sodas, a free box of candy, and your first beer, wine or specialty drink on the house! Also included: Oscar-themed trivia with prizes from local businesses, on-site paparazzi, and the Drexel's Oscar ballot contest with a chance to win a year of free Drexel movies! Plus, the BEST and most FUN way to watch the Oscars with fellow film fans and your CMG friends! ADVANCE TICKETS: General public tickets are $45 but Movie Group Members and their guests get in for just $35! Here’s how to purchase your tickets: \* Option 1 – In Person: You can purchase at the ticket counter anytime during operating hours. Just mention you are with the Columbus Movie Group for the discounted rate. \* Option 2 – Online: If you prefer to purchase online, you can do so by going to the link below and following these instructions: 1. Click the link below. 2. Click the little TICKETS box then click BUY TICKETS. 3. If you are a Drexel Member, you can log in here to receive the Member/Group rate, which is the same. If you are not a Drexel member, click “No” and the $40 Rate will pop up. But, don’t fret. It’s a little hard to find but there’s a “Promotion Code” section on the screen. Click the “Know a Promotion Code?” box, enter “CMG2026” (case sensitive) and submit. Select the appropriate number of tickets in the Discount Rate section and click “Add.” Next “Proceed to Checkout” then “Checkout” and enter your credit card info. There’s a $1.50 online service fee but it’ll save you a trip to the Drexel. (If you don’t already have one, you will need to sign in or create an account first.) Sellout possible so please purchase yours as soon as possible in advance! LINK FOR TICKETS (See Above Instructions): https://prod1.agileticketing.net/websales/pages/info.aspx?evtinfo=373546\~e2e0a350-c626-4e33-bc63-27e983f4aecf&epguid=ab0b2f82-403c-4972-9998-5475e7dcfa0e&mdy=3/15/2026& DRESS: Dressing up for the occasion art of part of the fun! Dress up as much as you like – there will be everything from casual to formal at the event! Or you can go in character as one of this year’s nominated films! ARRIVAL: Doors open for CMG at 5:30pm so that’s when we’ll plan to meet! That’ll give us plenty of time to fill out our Oscar Ballots, pick up some free popcorn, candy, and something to drink, mix, mingle, take some photos, pick up your Newfangled Kitchen Meal Deal, grab a seat in our CMG Reserved Section, then settle in to enjoy the Academy Awards on the Big Screen! PICTURES: We’ll take pics throughout the evening and the Drexel Paparazzi will be on hand as well. We’ll also take a big group photo around 6:40 near the entrance before the show begins. If you happen to take some good shots yourself, be sure to upload them on the Oscar Party Meetup event! RESERVED SEATING: As you enter the theater, the roped off section to the right marked “Reserved” is reserved for you, your guest(s) and the Columbus Movie Group! VEGAN MEALS: As previously mentioned, the food vendor does NOT have a vegan option at this year’s Oscar Party. However, we DO have a solution! I have reached out to several individuals who are affected. If you are a vegan, plan to attend the Oscar Party and did not receive an e-mail from me, please reach out via private message post a note below. I’ll provide details off-line. And while there won’t be a vegan meal option this year, I think we do have a workable solution. And, all other plans are usiness-as-usual: popcorn, sodas, candy, on-site paparazzi, decorations, bar drinks (including your first drink on the house), the Drexel’s Annual Oscar ballot contest, along with the Big Show on the Big Screen and a fun group of Movie Group friends to watch ‘em with! BONUS LINKS: \* COMPLETE LIST OF NOMINEES: https://deadline.com/lists/2026-oscar-nominations-list/ \* INTERESTING ARTICLE ON RECORDS BROKEN, SUPRISING FACTS AND OSCAR FIRSTS: https://abc7.com/post/oscar-nominations-2026-surprising-facts-nominees-98th-oscars/18448908/ \* SHORT VIDEO MONTAGE OF THIS YEAR’S BEST PICTURE NOMINEES: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3abMnrsaUA \* FUN VIDEO OF OSCAR NOMINEES HEARING THEIR NOMINATIONS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6eY1yGQ2aU PARKING: Parking is available along Main Street in front of the theater, on Drexel Avenue, and other nearby side streets.

LINK: Should be a fun & festive evening and a terrific way to celebrate a great year of movies together! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
