Meditation practice, Buddhist Dharma discussion and Chinese qi-gong exercises

It aims to introduce people living in Ireland to Buddhist teachings and practices that have been passed to Rinpoche through his masters and their masters going back many, many generations in order to benefit and bring peace to all sentient beings.

Dublin's Newest Language Exchange
Most language exchanges are built around **movement**. —fast rotations, brief chats, surface-level conversation.
New table. New person. Start again.
It feels productive. It isn’t.
Real conversations don’t happen in 10 minutes.
They start there. Then they get interesting.
At Flip Lingoes, **you stay.**
Same table. Same group. Enough time for real conversation and real connection, beyond the surface level.
Every 5 minutes, you switch roles: **fluent speaker ↔ learner**, not people.
Before you arrive, **[create a profile here](https://www.fliplingoes.com/language-exchange-dublin/)**[,](https://www.fliplingoes.com/language-exchange-dublin/) tell us what language you're learning.
This helps our **automated matching algorithm** put you in the right small group.
No awkward searching. No guesswork. Simply scan the QR code on arrival and it automatically matches you with fluent speakers of your target language.
We host events at Zanzibar Locke: calm, well-designed, easy to hear, easy to focus.
***
**Event Flow**
6:45–7:15 → Seamless check-in (QR code, get matched, sit down)
7:15–8:30 → Language Exchange (structured, focused)
8:30 → Optional social + snacks included
**Crispy chicken wings. Cheesy loaded nachos.** Straight from Zanzibar Locke’s kitchen. Perfect for chatting, relaxing, and refueling after a great language session.
**Entry:** €8 (tasty snacks included)
**Bundles:** 4 events €24 \| 10 events €50\, purchase [here](https://www.fliplingoes.com/language-exchange-dublin/?pricing_filter=in_person#bundles-section) in advance for express check in. Save time and money.
**Be generous and invite a friend for free:**
It's simple. Create a profile [here](https://www.fliplingoes.com/language-exchange-dublin/), log in, and click “**Invite Friend** to sign up.” It generates a link and you send that to them. Easy and your friend will thank you later ;)
If they register for the event before you, you both get free entry.🙌
\*P.S We ask if you consider to buy a drink at the bar upon arrival and support their venue and excellent hospitality in the heart of Dublin.
***
**Why Flip Lingoes works:**
* Go deeper: longer conversations at the same table
* Speak with the right people via automated matching
* Smooth, calm, focused environment
* Fun social finish
If you’re tired of restarting conversations and want to **actually speak beyond the greeting and small talk**, this is your place.
[Flip Lingoes](https://www.fliplingoes.com) is a new and innovative language exchange event, with a clear vision: **To upgrade language exchange events online and in cities around the world.** Currently in Dublin, Zurich and Online. **Can you guess our next city?**

Rampage Jugger Training for beginners
Jugger is a fast paced but easy to pick up sport that is great for beginners. Its like a combination of tag rugby and fencing and is a great way to meet new people and then hit them with a padded stick. Its light contact and the only gear you need to bring is clothing you are comfortable running around in and some water.
💚🧡💛 👋 Friendships and cappuccino ☕ 😀 💚🧡💛

🤝 **Instant connections!** You might walk in alone, but you'll probably leave with new friends.

We’ll be downstairs around the big oval table at a much-loved venue that's perfect for easy-going conversations and real connection.
🎉 **Theme: “International Mishmash”**: A chill space for people from all over (including Ireland!) to swap stories, share laughs, and practice languages if you fancy. (Shout-out to our lovely Irish regulars!)
🍻 **And after?** At 5pm, we’ll head over to the nearby **RIOT Pub** for tasty burgers and proper pints. Always a good time!!!
***
**Want to support the group? 🙏**
Running this thing costs over €200 a year (yep, all out of pocket for now 😅).
If you’d like to chip in, we’d really appreciate it:
* [PayPal](https://paypal.me/meetuppay)
* [Revolut](https://revolut.me/michelf9a) (you can pay with your card, no need to be on Revolut!).

Cheers and see you soon!
