Just good energy, real conversations, and a bit of festive chaos. Plus, you get a warm soup from **SuppeR,** Zürich’s new stew legends who basically serve happiness in liquid form. **How it works:** * ✨ **Start with a warm soup** Because nothing says social courage like holding a hot bowl of nutritious goodness. * 👣 **8-minute pair walks:** You’ll be matched with someone for an 8-minute walk through the Christmas market, just long enough for a fun, natural connection. * 💬 **Icebreaker questions included:** No awkward small talk! You’ll receive thoughtful, playful questions to spark real conversations * 🔄 **Switch & repeat** After each round, you come back to the meeting point, we reshuffle the pairs, and you head out again, meeting many new people in one magical evening. 🎁 **Who’s it for?** * New in Zürich and want friends * Not new in Zürich and still want friends * Love Christmas markets * Love soup Come solo, leave with new connections, funny stories, and probably a strong opinion on which stall sells the best roasted nuts. 🎉 **Extend the fun!** If you’re up for more social chaos after the walk, we’re also hosting an amazing pub quiz at Boho Bar from 20:00. You can grab a bundle ticket that includes both the Christmas Market Walk & Connect and entry to the pub quiz. Meet more people, laugh more, and maybe win some glory! The ticket for the Pub Quiz also includes tasty snacks + a bottle of Prosecco for the winning team 🍾 **Important:** Tickets are non-refundable.

Salsa Cubana Einsteigerkurs SC1b
Salsa Cubana Einsteigerkurs SC1b
Ohne Vorkenntnisse / Solo-Anmeldung möglich Kursstart: Freitag 14. November 2025 Kursdauer: 14. November - 19. Dezember 25 (6 MAL) Kurszeit: 19 - 21h Leitung: Chiara & Anne Kurskosten pro Person: CHF 240.- / 12h Anmeldung unter: [https://salsarica.ch/kurse/salsa-cubana-anfaenger.html](https://salsarica.ch/kurse/salsa-cubana-anfaenger.html?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwWmdsNkJVWG5oamxTWTFUaQEe0fXG6K2Hfd8Vu0RoF-iyDkuEvwybBXFSd7KYMtqLxPXzbqXYWG8WKixKTws_aem_Kf4b7R0VA07PbQDjyEWmEA) Wir freuen uns auf euch! Ergänzende Infos: Salsa! Kein anderer Tanz hat in den letzten Jahren eine derart steile Erfolgskurve aufs Parkett gelegt. Die Salsa weckt Sehnsüchte nach der Karibik und versprüht wahre Lebensfreude. Salsa wird paarweise getanzt. Ein Partner führt, der andere wird geführt. Bei uns werden hauptsächlich Kurse im kubanischen Stil unterrichtet, der Salsa Cubana, welcher seinen Ursprung in Kuba hat. Die kubanische Salsa wirkt eher spielerisch, rhythmisch und lebendig und setzt sich aus unterschiedlichen lateinamerikanischen Rhythmen und Tänzen zusammen. Das wesentliche Merkmal des kubanischen Stils sind die Drehungen des Tanzpaares um einen gemeinsamen Mittelpunkt und das Kernstück des Salsa Cubana, die Rueda de Casino. Der Name Rueda rührt daher, dass alle beteiligten Paare einen Kreis bilden, wobei sie jeweils synchron die gleichen Figuren tanzen. Bedingt durch Partnerwechsel, die jeweils zu den getanzten Figuren gehören, dreht sich die Rueda bzw. das Rad. Der Kurs für blutige Anfänger oder für Leute, die sich mit den Basic-Elementen noch unsicher fühlen.

ZH3 Hash # 1692: Bye Bye Xmas Market and a Hashy New Year
ZH3 Hash # 1692: Bye Bye Xmas Market and a Hashy New Year
Christmas is nearing, and with that, the Glühwein is quickly running at! This will likely be your LAST chance to see drunk santa's fight over the last Glüwein at the Bellevue Christmas market! So come out, escape your family and find one last respite at the Hash! We will meet at the Stadelhofen Bahnhof lockers for the bag drop, for a short but pleasant run through the city, followed by one more visit at the Christmas Market at Bellevue for a late lunch, early dinner and last chance to breathe in some festive energy before the REAL deal starts. **Where**: See location. Typically within Zurich Zone 10. Look for English speakers wearing running gear. **When:** We'll meet at 13:50 pm to start at 14 pm. There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards. **All Welcome:** If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know: • We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful. • The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun. • 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further. • The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time. • There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change. • **After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards. **Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?** If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it. 'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.* We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
