Language Learning

As some of you know, I suffered a pretty nasty back injury last summer, and have been trying to be proactive about healing, relieving pain and preventing reinjury since. I know many of us in this group are working in front of screens and/or living a relatively sedentary lifestyle. I am pretty sure those factors contributed to my own back issues. Wanted to spread the word about [John Raven's SpineTuned](https://www.spinetuned.com/) classes as it has been one of my "quick wins" that doesn't require medication and has brought relief. John teaches his classes in English at different locations in Paris. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Join us for a specialist-led session on relieving back and joint pain and improving posture through natural alignment. John Raven, from [SpineTuned](https://www.spinetuned.com/), has conducted successful demonstrations at various health events, including INSPIRELLE's "Unstoppable You Coaching Event." This is a wonderful opportunity for Members who would like to benefit from practical solutions to everyday posture challenges. Experience how a few simple shifts in how you sit make you feel better over and over again. **An individual assessment** will show you exactly where the problem lies and what to do. This empowering, restorative class is for all ages and body types. You’ll leave feeling better than when you arrived—and with tools you can use anytime, even while sitting at your desk. **Spaces are limited.** **\*\*\*Please wear looser-fitting softer pants—jeans do not work well!\*\*\*** [John Raven](http://www.spinetuned.com/) is a certified SpineTuned instructor who has been studying the art of natural pain-free posture and movement for 17 years and teaching it for 8. As an expat in France, John serves as a bridge between the pioneering French experts and the leading American teachers of this groundbreaking work. With deep connections to both groups, he is dedicated to sharing the profound benefits of SpineTuned and ensuring its impact is passed on to future generations.

Hey Everyone! Let's meet at Belle's Bread Bakery and Cafe. There is lots of free parking and easy access to the cafe and many shops and restaurants as well. This is a great way to meet new and old friends while chatting about life and practicing English language speaking skills. All are welcome and encouraged to join us anytime between 11am and 1pm. Looking forward to seeing you soon.

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

The aim of this group is to get together and practice our German. Doesn’t matter if are a beginner or a native speaker. The goal is to speak and improve our German. Everyone is welcome! If the weather is good, look for us in the Biergarten. Pro Tip: Get there before 6:00 for happy hour pricing.

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who enjoy talking to people from other countries, and those who would like to discuss international travel and culture, and who enjoy getting together for good conversations."

If you enjoy knitting, crocheting, working with yarn, this is the group for you. Meet new friends, bring your projects, learn from others.
We normally meet a few times a month during the week from 6-8pm. We will occasionally meet on weekends during daytime hours.

SATURDAY: This event is 2:30 - 4 pm SATURDAY. Conversation tends toward intermediate/advanced, but everybody is welcome. If you come and don't see us right away, keep looking. We could be anywhere in the restaurant.

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
