Real Long Term Friendship
Real Long Term Friendship
Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows: * You should not care how many people are joining this meetup. You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend. * You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining. You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones. * You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time! Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-) * You are ready to use your phone as a real phone! You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone! * You are going to meet some people twice! That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once. If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way. P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).

Lousy & Lazy SC - Mixed Friendly Football
Lousy & Lazy SC - Mixed Friendly Football
Do you like to play football - but relaxed and not with competitive or aggressive players? Are you a bit lazy, a bit old, a bit unfit or not so talented? Are you tired of insecure bros who only want to show off their skills? **Then [Lousy & Lazy Football](https://www.instagram.com/landlsc/) is the right thing for you!** We are a group of friendly people who just want to have a relaxed kick. All genders, ages (+18) and nationalities welcome. **Feel free to join the waitlist even if it seems long - sometimes we make the event larger and play on two pitches (24 players, four teams) or even three pitches (36 players, six teams), depending on demand.** Note: **We do not allow high-studded football boots during our sessions.** To avoid injuries, we only play with "Multinocken" (multistuds) or shorter. Please have a look here: [link](https://www.11teamsports.com/de-de/fussballschuhe/multinocken/). Rules for lazy & lousy football 1. **Don’t be competitive** 2. **No hard tackling/sliding challenges** 3. **Support new players by giving them the time and space to play the ball** 4. **Don’t dribble past multiple players (trying to take on a player is fine but at no point should you be trying to dribble past multiple players).** 5. **Don’t close down the defenders too quickly. Give the team a chance to play the ball out.** 6. **Rotate the goalkeeper** 7. **Be a teamplayer** Waiting list: This meetup is for members of the Lousy & Lazy Sport Club. If you want to try out our lousy & lazy sport events, you can do a trial run (Probetraining).

🟣 Surprise Session | Playful Expression | Expedition Metropolis (Kreuzberg)
🟣 Surprise Session | Playful Expression | Expedition Metropolis (Kreuzberg)
# ​Welcome to Uncommon Club ​Uncommon Club runs curated experiences across Berlin that invite you to step out of autopilot and into something new. Tickets via [luma.com/uncommonclub](luma.com/uncommonclub) *** ## ​Overview ​**Location:** Expedition Metropolis **Language:** English **Group size:** 18 people **Uncommon Factor:** 🟣🟣⚪ **Guide**: Surprise **Event Manager**: Joost *** ## ​This session ​Let go of script. ​What happens when you stop trying to be clever, and simply respond? ​This session invites you into a playful exploration. Guided, interactive, and open-ended. You’ll be offered simple prompts and situations that unfold moment by moment, shaped by the group rather than a fixed plan. ​The exact form stays a surprise. What’s certain is a light, well-held group space where you can experiment, react, and build something together.. without pressure to perform, be funny, or get it right. ​No experience needed. You can jump in, take a step back, or observe when needed. Participation is always opt-in. *** ## ​**​Today's guide** ​Today’s session is held by a Berlin-based artist and facilitator working across live performance and group-based creative work. He has led sessions for institutions such as DIE GORILLAS and the Berliner Volkshochschule, and regularly works with both performers and non-performers. ​His approach is less about instruction and more about attunement, sensing the group, responding in the moment, and creating a space that feels playful, human, and low-pressure. ![User Uploaded Image](https://images.lumacdn.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,fit=cover,dpr=2,quality=75,width=800,height=640/editor-images/6l/496e252f-f4b0-4409-a4af-aefed8f61976.png) ## ​**​**Practical notes * ​**Clothing**: Comfortable clothing recommended. We’ll be indoors; bring a warm layer. * ​**Beverages**: Light beverages provided (please eat beforehand). You might want to bring your own water bottle. Strictly no alcohol allowed. * ​**Health & pregnancy:** Any involved movement is gentle and voluntary. * ​**Accessibility:** Ground floor, wheelchair accessible. * ​**Bring a +1:** You can purchase a ticket for friends via Luma or they can book their own ticket separately. * ​**Children**: This session is designed for adults. We don’t have facilities or supervision in place for children, so we kindly ask parents to arrange childcare in advance. *** ## ​**​Compatibility** ​​This session is for you, if you ... * ​are curious about improvisation without stage pressure * ​enjoy playful interaction and responding in the moment * ​like experiences that feel social, light, and exploratory * ​appreciate clear guidance with freedom to opt in or out * ​feel okay warming up gradually in a group setting ​​No experience needed. Participation is always voluntary. Not sure if this session fits you? Ask any questions via [hello@uncommon.club ](https://mailto:hello@uncommon.club/)or take a 2-minute test to see what type of Uncommon Club sessions suit you best: [Matching Survey](https://www.uncommon.club/) *** ## ​**​What others said about similar sessions** > ​“It made me laugh, but also notice how much easier things flow when you stop planning every move.” > — **Fatos from Germany** ![User Uploaded Image](https://images.lumacdn.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,fit=cover,dpr=2,quality=75,width=800,height=640/editor-images/g4/fcee4f21-9438-4cfe-a576-9bfd622137b3.png) ​​If you want to explore more reflections from past participants, you can find them here: → **[www.uncommon.club ](https://www.uncommon.club/)**or on our **[Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/uncommonclub.berlin/)** *** ## ​**​Cancellation, reimbursement & flexibility** ​​We want booking an Uncommon Club session to feel easy, human and low-risk. * ​​You can cancel or transfer your ticket **up to 48 hours before** the session for a full refund. * ​​If something unexpected comes up closer to the date, reach out, we’ll always aim to find a **fair solution**. * ​​If we can reassign your spot to someone on the waitlist, we’re happy to refund you. ​​If you join a session and need to step out early for a serious or personal reason, please let one of the facilitators or our empathy angel know. In such cases, we’re open to **reimbursing your ticket**, even after the session has started. *** ![User Uploaded Image](https://images.lumacdn.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,fit=cover,dpr=2,quality=75,width=800,height=533.3333333333334/editor-images/9k/472d0c13-5f95-4952-8f20-c18e7241737f.jpg) ## ​**​**What is Uncommon Club? ​Uncommon Club creates guided group sessions built around shared novelty, doing something unfamiliar together, in a way that feels safe, human, and intentional. ​We believe that when people step into a new experience at the same time, without knowing exactly what will happen, habits soften, curiosity opens, and connection becomes more natural. ​That’s why Uncommon Club sessions are: * ​carefully guided and consent-led, * ​designed around presence rather than performance, * ​and kept partly a surprise. *** ## ​What Uncommon Club **is**, and **isn’t** ​**Uncommon Club is:** * ​✅ A guided, facilitator-led group experience * ​✅ Focused on curiosity, embodiment, and human connection * ​✅ Structured, consent-led, and psychologically safe ​**Uncommon Club is not:** * ​❌ A party or club night * ​❌ An intense fitness class * ​❌ A networking or dating event * ​❌ A sexual setting * ​❌ Therapy or counselling *** ## ​How our sessions work ​Every Uncommon Club session is carefully guided and unfolds in phases ​**Phase 1️⃣ — Arrival** Arrive, settle, and land in the space and group. ​**Phase 2️⃣ — Warm-up** Gentle invitations help you arrive in your body and the moment. ​**Phase 3️⃣ — Exploration** The heart of the session. Playful, embodied and surprising. ​**Phase 4️⃣ — Reflection** We slow things down and let the experience settle. ​**Phase 5️⃣ — Connection** A clear closing moment, with space to linger.. or leave quietly. ![User Uploaded Image](https://images.lumacdn.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,fit=cover,dpr=2,quality=75,width=800,height=533.3333333333334/editor-images/gk/7f77d4f7-c573-464f-9b2e-a392e9727fea.jpg) ## ​**​**Frequently Asked Questions ​**❓ Who is Uncommon Club for?** Uncommon Club is for any adult. You don't need to be a performer or social butterfly, just someone open to exploring horizons beyond the everyday. ​**❓ What if I realize I don't want to participate?** That's fine. A "no" is as bold as a "yes". You can always step back or observe instead of joining in, and this will be explained and emphasised at the start of every experience. ​**❓ I struggle with strangers. Will it be awkward?** Our guides are trained in spaceholding and use a unique event process to make connection flow easily and naturally. It's structured so that everyone feels included without pressure. ​For more FAQ's, please visit our website: [https://www.uncommon.club/](https://www.uncommon.club/) *** ## ​Safety, boundaries & wellbeing * ​Participation is always voluntary. * ​You can opt out of any exercise at any time. * ​Clear boundaries are held throughout. * ​An empathy angel is present, someone you can approach anytime if you’d like to talk. * ​We recommend leaving a little space before and after the session. Not because it’s intense, but because embodied experiences tend to land better when you’re not rushing. * ​Uncommon Club welcomes people of all backgrounds and bodies. Diversity is the fabric of our experiences. * ​Please read more in our [Community Guidelines](https://www.uncommon.club/community-guidelines). *** ## ​Disclaimer * ​Uncommon Club sessions are creative group experiences, not therapy. * ​If you’re currently going through an acute or overwhelming personal situation, we recommend sitting this one out and seeking appropriate support. * ​If you’re unsure whether this session is right for you, feel free to reach out via hello@uncommon.club. We’re happy to help you decide safely. *** ## ​Photography & privacy * ​We care about privacy. * ​Please don’t take photos or videos of others. * ​Uncommon Club may capture a few atmosphere shots only with clear consent. *** ## ​More information ​Instagram: [@uncommonclub.berlin](https://www.instagram.com/uncommonclub.berlin/) Website: [www.uncommon.club](http://www.uncommon.club/) Email: [hello@uncommon.club](https://mailto:hello@uncommon.club/) Blasts [Uncommon Club](https://luma.com/user/usr-zfFBmbmComnOuye) [Feb 3, 11:00 PM](https://luma.com/blast/N6FX6uAhxW) ## Evolving our concept and pricing ​We want to share a small evolution in how Uncommon Club sessions are offered. ​Until now, every Uncommon Club session was a complete surprise. Going forward, we’ll work with a mix of Open sessions **⚪️**, where the format and facilitator are shared in advance and Surprise sessions **🟣** where you step in without knowing what will unfold. ​Our intention remains unchanged: creating spaces for you to feel human again. During our events you enter with curiosity, trust the process and experience something new. This change simply offers more choice in how you step in. ​You may also have noticed a change in our pricing. We’ve decided to lower prices for future sessions to make it easier to return and easier to say yes, while keeping the same level of care and attention in the space. ​Because you signed up at the original price, we want to acknowledge that. If you’d like to join a future session, just reach out to us and we’ll make sure you receive a **50% discount**. ​Thank you for being there from the beginning. ​Your Uncommon Club team, ​Joost, Oktay and Jonel

Join Neurodivergent District for a night of camaraderie over karaoke. We are excited to celebrate the 30th birthday of one of our members and hosts, Patrick R. We have a 6:30 reservation with limited seating. If you arrive later, you may not have a seat. We're still happy to have you come and join us. This venue can be **loud and overstimulating** for some, so please feel free to bring supports that help (earplugs, noise-canceling headphones, taking breaks outside, etc.). And no pressure to sing — you’re welcome to cheer others on and/or just come to socialize. **Please note:** you’re responsible for any food/drink charges you accrue. We look forward to seeing you.
