**Massage Exchange for GBTQ men\*** With ***Markus Kaufmann*** for **GBTQ men\*** **[Book a Ticket](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/massage-exchange/w24-2026)** **Member: 15 €** **Non-member: 25€** Massage Exchange for GBTQ Men\* is a monthly event that provides a safe and welcoming space to practice and experience full-body touch and massage techniques (using massage tables). Referencing the content from the “Soul of Skin” massage training, each evening offers participants the opportunity to either try out or deepen various massage styles, fostering a community of learning and support. Switching between giving and receiving roles often allows men\* to engage more deeply, experiencing greater impact and connection. The event provides both thematic suggestions for massage techniques and “best practices,” as well as enough freedom to use the space in mutual agreement with your partner\*. Whether you are new to massage or attentive touch, or an experienced practitioner, this event is an excellent opportunity to connect with others, improve your skills, and enjoy the many benefits of touch in a supportive environment. Benefits of non-judgmental, full-body Touch: • touch is essential for our mental health and prevents loneliness ● Touch slows down, nourishes, and soothes • touch can positively influence shame or negative body image • touch promotes relaxation and regeneration • touch communicates without words and creates a deeper connection to others • touch stimulates the capacity for pleasure and empathy 🔵 **Massage Exchange für GBTQ Männer\*** Mit ***Markus Kaufmann*** fur **GBTQ men\*** **Massage Exchange für GBTQ Männer\*** ist ein monatliches Event, das einen sicheren und einladenden Raum bietet, um ganzkörperliche Berührung und Massagetechniken (unter Verwendung von Massageliegen) zu praktizieren und zu erleben. Bezugnehmend auf die Inhalte des „Soul of Skin Massagetrainings”, bietet jeder Abend den Teilnehmenden die Möglichkeit, entweder verschiedene Massage Stile zu probieren oder zu vertiefen, wodurch eine Gemeinschaft des Lernens und der Unterstützung entsteht. Der Wechsel zwischen gebender und nehmender Rolle erlaubt es oft Männern\*, sich tiefer einzulassen und dadurch mehr Wirkung und Verbindung zu erfahren. Es gibt thematisch sowohl Anregung für Massagegriffe und “best practices“ als auch genug Freiheit, den Raum im gegenseitigen Einvernehmen mit deinem Partner\* zu nutzen. Egal, ob Du neu in der Massage oder aufmerksamen Berührung bist oder ein erfahrener Praktiker, dieses Event ist eine hervorragende Gelegenheit, Dich mit anderen zu verbinden, Deine Fähigkeiten zu verbessern und die vielen Vorteile von Berührung in einer unterstützenden Umgebung zu erfahren und zu genießen. **Vorteile einer wertfreien, ganzkörperlichen Berührung:** • Berührung ist essentiell für unsere seelische Gesundheit und beugt Vereinsamung vor Berührung verlangsamt, nährt und beruhigt. • Berührung kann Scham oder negative Körperbilder positiv beeinflussen. • Berührung fördert Entspannung und Erholung. • Berührung kommuniziert ohne Worte und schafft eine tiefere Verbindung zu anderen. • Berührung stimuliert Genuß- und Empathiefähigkeit.

Looking for a low-pressure way to get offline, meet new people, and actually do something fun on a Tuesday? This is a relaxed pool night in Spandau—come for a few rounds, stay for the chats, and leave with a couple of new familiar faces. **What to expect** * Casual pool games in **rotating rounds** (so everyone gets to play) — **beginners are welcome** * A friendly vibe: meaningful conversations *and* a bit of playful pool-table silliness * We **start on time** — please arrive punctually, otherwise it’s hard to fit you into the rotation **Costs** * Your own drinks + shared table costs (depending on group size) **RSVP** Please RSVP on Meetup so I can estimate how many tables we’ll need.

It’s time to think pink again, as the weather improves and the long warm evenings scream for a cold glass of fruity freshness. But rosés are not just frivolous summer tipples. The best examples are world class, due to the history of the regions, geography of the landscapes and technical innovations going back centuries. Let’s learn all about it as we taste some of the best bottles in France (and by extension, the world): Clairet from Bordeaux – the OG Tavel - the only specialist rosé AOC in France Bubbly from Alsace Loire Valley – the spiritual home of rosé Provence – the more recent standard-bearer Languedoc – the new pretender As well as these classics I have a randomer as usual to liven things up. I maintain that pink wines are great with food, so I’ll supply some dips, seafood, cheese and other snacks to prove it! This really is the last word in rosé wine tasting, so I hope to see you there. Cheers, Sean

Außerdem machen gute Freundinnen einfach Spaß.** . Deshalb biete ich Freundschaftsworkshop an. . Manche sagen: "Es ist schwierig, in Berlin gute Freundinnen zu finden." Berlin, die Stadt der 1000 Möglichkeiten ... ich kenne das auch. . **🌸 Dann machen wir einen Workshop!** 1. Maximal 40 Frauen. 2. Eine leichte Moderation führt durch den Abend 3. Ihr lernt Euch kennen und habt Spaß. 4. Wer mag, trifft sich wieder. . Du wirst überrascht sein, wie vertraut Du mit vielen nach 3 Stunden sein wirst - so, als ob Ihr Euch schon lange kennt. . **🔱 4 Jahre Arbeit - 1 Workshop** Vier Jahre habe ich geforscht und ausprobiert, wie Menschen Freunde werden & was die Magie der Freundschaft ausmacht. Das Ergebnis ist dieser Abend. . Praxisnahe, schnell umsetzbare Tipps, die Du schnell in den Alltag umsetzen kannst. Kleine Happen zur Theorie. - Und vor allem: Kennenlernen & Spaß haben. Wir probieren einfach miteinander aus. . Eine Teilnehmerin sagte mal zu mir: * "Georg, das ist so eine angenehme Atmosphäre. Danke, dass Du das machst." . Was soll ich sagen? Stimmt. Das ist mein Anliegen 🤗. . . **🎁 Diese Methoden kannst Du in Deinen Alltag mitnehmen.** Ab sofort kannst Du Menschen besser und persönlicher kennenlernen – und damit tiefe Verbindungen und bessere Freundschaften aufbauen. . . **⏰ Die Türen sind offen ab 18:45 Uhr.** * Deinen Mantel aufhängen, WC, eine Runde schwatzen und los geht's... . **❓ Darf ich wiederkommen?** Es gibt nur wenige Veranstaltungen, bei denen man wirklich miteinander ins Gespräch kommt. Hier schon, mit Tiefgang. .

Dort ist eine Tür. * Du klingest bei "Life Artist Hub". Die Tür sollte sofort summen. Öffne die Tür. * Du gehst in den 3. Stock. Da sind wir. 🤗 . **👱🏽‍♂️ Warum moderierst Du als Mann diesen Workshop?** . Hi, ich bin Georg. Ich weiß, ich bin ein Mann. Warum moderiere ich dann diesen Workshop? . Abenteuer Freundschaft ist mein Beruf. Am Anfang war ich auf Männer-Freundschaften spezialisiert. Überraschenderweise waren 60 Prozent der Newsletter-Empfängerinnen Frauen. Frauen scheinen die Wichtigkeit guter Freundschaften viel mehr zu spüren. . Deshalb habe ich letztes Jahr angefangen, Workshops für Frauen anzubieten. Soziale Träger, das Rathaus Schöneberg und das Frauenzentrum Begine haben mich bereits für Freundinnen-Workshops gebucht. Im Frauenzentrum moderiert eine Bekannte die Workshops.... denn da darf ich noch nicht mal rein :). . Unseren Workshop werde ich zurückhaltend moderieren. Ich weiß mit der Situation umzugehen. Das ist Euer Raum. . Für die Männer gibt es alle zwei Wochen am Dienstag einen Männer-Workshop, der regelmäßig gut besucht ist. . . **Mehr über Abenteuer Freundschaft & mich:** 🌎 [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](http://%5Bhttps://www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de/%5D(https://www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de/) "\[https://www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de\](https://www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de)") . . **👋🏽 Get in touch & stay in touch:** . **✈ Telegram-Kanal: [t.me/abenteuer_freundschaft](http://t.me/abenteuer_freundschaft)** für Events, Workshops & Neuste Erkenntnisse aus der Freundschaftsforschung (Überschriften) . **✉ Freundschafts-Newsletter:** [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/newsletter](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/newsletter) Alle 4 Wochen das Neuste aus der Freundschaftsforschung; oft seltener, denn ich schreibe nur dann, wenn es wirklich etwas zu berichten gibt. . **🔥 6 Zutaten großartiger Freundschaften** Seit 2020 forsche ich, was großartige Freundschaften wirklich ausmacht.

## 1 Million Cups Loudoun – Business Presentation ### Featuring Mary Hartshorn, Founder of Craft Alchemy **Wednesday\, June 10 \| 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM** **Venture X Loudoun** Join us as we welcome **Mary Hartshorn**, founder of **Craft Alchemy**, to the 1 Million Cups Loudoun stage. *** ## About the Presenter Mary Hartshorn is an Army Veteran, entrepreneur, and founder of Craft Alchemy. With a background in communications and logistics and an MBA earned in 2016, Mary spent years developing expertise in e-commerce, digital products, automation systems, Shopify, Etsy, and customer-focused product development while raising her family and navigating military life. In 2024, a personal moment of crisis inspired Mary to create a tool that could help others facing similar challenges. What began as a resource for veterans quickly evolved into a broader solution designed to support individuals and families navigating autism, mental health challenges, caregiving responsibilities, medical conditions, and other situations where communication can become difficult during times of stress. *** ## About the Business Craft Alchemy has developed the **Anchor Tag Support System**, a personalized QR-based support hub that helps individuals quickly access calming tools, emergency contacts, support resources, and personalized information when they need it most. Designed to bridge the gap between physical and digital support, Anchor Tags provide a practical, accessible tool for Veterans, First Responders, autism families, caregivers, mental health advocates, schools, healthcare providers, and organizations focused on community well-being. Rather than creating another app, Craft Alchemy offers a real-world solution that can be carried, accessed quickly, and utilized during moments when support and communication matter most. *** ## Who Mary Is Looking to Hear From Mary would especially value feedback and connections from: * Veteran support organizations * First responder support groups * Mental health professionals and advocates * Autism and disability support organizations * School administrators and special education professionals * Healthcare and caregiving professionals * Nonprofit leaders * Community outreach specialists * Government contracting and partnership advisors * Local leaders focused on community impact initiatives *** ## Current Business Focus & Challenge Craft Alchemy is currently in its early growth and partnership stage. Mary's primary focus is building awareness, establishing strategic partnerships, and expanding opportunities within organizations and community-based networks. She is seeking feedback around: * Building strategic partnerships * Scaling awareness organically * Expanding into schools, nonprofits, and community organizations * Navigating government and organizational opportunities * Growing a mission-driven business without relying heavily on paid advertising She would also appreciate introductions to individuals and organizations connected to veterans, first responders, mental health advocacy, autism support, caregiving, education, and community health initiatives. *** ## Why Attend? * Learn about an innovative solution designed to support people during moments of stress and crisis * Provide valuable feedback to a mission-driven entrepreneur * Connect with community leaders, advocates, and professionals across multiple industries * Be part of a meaningful conversation around accessibility, support, and community impact *** ## About 1 Million Cups 1 Million Cups is a national program that brings entrepreneurs and communities together to learn, connect, and grow through presentations and discussion. Loudoun’s chapter meets on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays each month. Join us on **June 10** for coffee, connection, and a conversation about creating practical solutions that strengthen individuals, families, and communities. We look forward to seeing you there.

Join Sober Supper Club DC for an intimate group dinner at Summer House Santa Monica in North Bethesda, a sun-drenched, California-inspired restaurant tucked into the Pike & Rose neighborhood. Summer House brings a little bit of the West Coast to the DMV — bright, airy, and built around the feeling of a perfect summer day. The menu is fresh, seasonal, and made for sharing: wood-grilled fish and meats, market-driven salads, hand-rolled pastas, and the famous Cookie Bar stocked with dozens of fresh-baked cookies to close out the night. The space itself feels like a coastal escape — whitewashed wood, abundant plants, and warm light that makes every dinner feel like a vacation.
