The Longform toolbox by Rutger Pull (sold out)
The Longform toolbox by Rutger Pull (sold out)
#### Level: Advanced or almost advanced *Longform Toolbox 1* Longform improv is where everything you’ve learned starts to breathe. Instead of short scenes or structured games, we begin to explore what happens when scenes are allowed to grow, connect, and evolve. One idea can spark a whole world. A single moment can ripple through multiple scenes. And suddenly, you’re not just improvising—you’re building something together. In **Longform Toolbox 1**, we take the tools you may already know and start applying them with more intention, clarity, and awareness. Instead of focusing on isolated scenes, we explore how scenes can breathe, connect, and evolve over time. You will work with tools like editing techniques, story in 3 acts, the role of the narrator or director, strong starts, characters with aspirations, finding the game, themes and callbacks, and exploring characters and their relationships. But more than just learning the tools, this course is about understanding *when* and *why* to use them. \- How do you make a strong start that gives direction without locking anything in? \- When is the right moment to edit—and when is it better to stay? \- How do you recognize the game of a scene and build on it together? \- And how can themes and callbacks emerge naturally\, instead of being forced? We’ll explore these questions through play, repetition, and reflection. You’ll learn to trust your instincts while also developing a sharper eye for structure, pacing, and group dynamics. Longform asks for a different kind of awareness. Not just of your own character, but of the whole piece that is unfolding. What is the story that wants to be told? What patterns are appearing? And how can you support them—on stage or from the sidelines? #### Who this course is for This course is intended for almost advanced improvisers who want to see if longform is something for them, or who want to gain more insights in narrative choices. You should have done at least four improv courses or similar. #### **Course details** Course start: Tue 19 May New location: Buurtcentrum Rosa, Actviteitenzaal 1, [Malakkastraat 6 Utrecht](https://share.google/ixy1GPi4lHSiMr9Ct) Schedule: Tueasdays 19:30-21:30 Nine sessions in total, consisting of eight lessons and a show. ##### **Dates** 19, 26 May 2026, 2, 9 , 16, 23, 30 June,7 July. Show date t.b.d. Price: €248 including 21 percent VAT Tickets : improv-utrecht.weticket.io #### **About the teacher** Rutger Pull specialises in short-form improv and Dutch Theatresports. He has a sharp eye for what a scene needs in order to work and excels at teaching players how to recognise and support that. His feedback style is positive, clear, and precise, helping players grow while staying playful and confident. Rutger began improvising during his university years in Enschede and has been performing for many years with Iets Anders in Utrecht. His classes combine structure, insight, and enjoyment, creating a focused yet relaxed learning environment.
Mannengroep Nijmegen
Mannengroep Nijmegen
**Let op: RSVP via Meetup is géén directe aanmelding. De startdatum op meetup is niet de daadwerkelijke startdatum van de mannengroep; lees verder voor meer informatie** **Voor deelname plannen we eerst een korte intakecall. Na die call bevestigen we of deelname past.** **Stuur dus altijd eerst een mail naar: Info@modernmanhood.nl voor een kennismaking!** **www.Modernmanhood.nl** In een tijd waarin veel mannen in hun eentje worstelen, willen wij iets anders aanbieden: een plek waar je niet hoeft te presteren. Waar je mag vertragen, voelen en delen. De grote aanvraag bevestigt voor ons: de behoefte aan échte verbinding en verdieping onder mannen is groot. In deze mannengroep komen we om de drie weken samen met een vaste groep van maximaal 10 mannen. We creëren een warme, veilige setting waarin we onderzoeken wat het betekent om man te zijn, in relaties, in werk, in vriendschap en in het dagelijks leven. Je hoeft niets te fixen of op te lossen. Je hoeft alleen te verschijnen zoals je bent. Elke avond werken we met een thema zoals woede, kwetsbaarheid, angst, kracht of verbinding. We combineren rituelen, lichaamswerk, deelrondes en oefeningen uit o.a. mindfulness, ademwerk en systemisch werk. Alles in een sfeer van openheid, zachtheid en respect. Je doet een commitment per 4 sessies. Je betaalt vooraf voor elke reeks van 4 bijeenkomsten. De groep loopt door; na elke reeks kun je je opnieuw verbinden en blijft je plek behouden. Zo ontstaat er vertrouwen, diepgang en continuïteit in de groep. De eerste stap is een korte, vrijblijvende kennismakingscall, om elkaar even te spreken en te voelen of het past. Daarna krijg je praktische info via WhatsApp en kun je instappen zodra de nieuwe groep start. De definitieve datum wordt afgestemd op de groepsgrootte en beschikbaarheid van de deelnemers. Meld je gerust aan om op de hoogte te blijven! Aanmelden kan via: info@modernmanhood.nl of kijk op de website. Locatie: Nijmegen Investering in jezelf: €200 voor 4 sessies van 2,5 uur per sessie. Over de facilitators Deze mannengroep wordt begeleid door David Gelsing en Steyn Maréchal. Twee mannen met een open hart en een gedeelde missie: ruimte creëren waar mannen écht kunnen landen in zichzelf en in verbinding met elkaar. David Gelsing Is Toegepast Psycholoog en lichaamsgericht therapeut, gespecialiseerd in het begeleiden van innerlijke processen via het lichaam. Zijn kracht ligt in het verbinden van hoofd en hart, ratio en gevoel. Iets wat hij diepgaand leerde via zijn eigen persoonlijke transformatie. Mensen ervaren David als kalm, zacht en geduldig, maar ook als levendig, direct en met een groot gevoel voor humor wanneer dat past. Hij begeleidt met scherpte, veiligheid en een warm hart. 🌐 www.davidgelsing.nl 🔗https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidgelsing/ Steyn Maréchal Is facilitator en communitybouwer met ervaring in het begeleiden van groepen, mannencirkels en processen rond persoonlijke ontwikkeling. Hij heeft een scherp gevoel voor groepsdynamiek, brengt rust, structuur en uitnodiging in het moment. Steyn is altijd op zoek naar wat er écht speelt onder de oppervlakte en helpt anderen daarin tevoorschijn te komen. 🔗https://www.linkedin.com/in/steyn-mar%C3%A9chal/ Samen creëren ze een bedding van vertrouwen waarin kracht en kwetsbaarheid naast elkaar mogen bestaan.
Clear Mind Meditation Course
Clear Mind Meditation Course
**Do you ever find life can get overwhelming?** We might search for ways to bring ourselves to a clear and peaceful mind, but often, our thoughts and emotions feel too powerful to be ignored! The busier we get, the more thinking we do, and the more agitated our minds become. **Perhaps our emotions go wild, or we are left in a state of stress and overwhelm, and so we disconnect from ourselves and those around us.** But what if we could find a way to calm our mind and connect confidently with ourselves and others, even in the midst of overwhelm? **Journey with us on this 10-week course as we explore how the ancient art of meditation can help us improve our quality of life, clarity of mind, and emotional ease with which we move through the world.**

TechDay: AI kansen en valkuilen
TechDay: AI kansen en valkuilen
Donderdag 21 mei 2026 is het weer tijd voor onze Techday: hét vaste moment waarop we kennis delen, elkaar inspireren en nieuwe ideeën direct in de praktijk brengen. Deze editie pakken we het aan als een conferentie in het klein. Drie sprekers, drie verhalen, één middag – drie verhalen voor de prijs van één. Wat kun je verwachten? **Dirk neemt een kijkje onder de motorkap van AI** AI voelt voor veel mensen als magie. In deze talk probeer ik de magie weg te nemen door een kijkje te nemen onder de motorkap. Een essentieel bouwblok van moderne AI is een neuraal netwerk. Als je begrijpt hoe een neuraal netwerk werkt, is het een stuk makkelijker om te begrijpen hoe en waarom een LLM werkt. De beste manier om iets te begrijpen is door het te bouwen, vanaf scratch. Dus dat gaan we in deze talk doen. Door dat te doen leren we over artificial neurons, activation functions, backpropagation en meer. **George vertelt hoe AI Cyberaanvallen verandert** George Schizas (extern), voormalig IT Manager, nu werkzaam als CISO, vertelt over zijn ervaringen in de Cloud Cyber Security en hoe hackers met behulp van AI nieuwe aanvalsmethoden kunnen gebruiken om kwetsbaarheden op te sporen en te exploiteren. Hij geeft voorbeelden van manieren om in Kubernetes omgevingen in te breken en noemt manieren om dit tegen te gaan. **Roland duikt in de wereld van de fraude fabriek** Als ontwikkelaar kom je dagelijks in contact met technologie en de laatste jaren natuurlijk ook vaak met AI. JIJ snapt heel goed wat de voordelen en de gevaren zijn, maar hoe leg je complexe onderwerpen als AI gegenereerde afbeeldingen, Voice Phishing en Hallucinaties uit aan je ouders, de buurvrouw, of je kinderen? Ik neem jullie mee in een realistische situatie waarin Anna en haar familie opgelicht wordt met behulp van verschillende technieken en hoe dit oplichters-landschap met behulp van AI verandert. **Wanneer:** Donderdag 21 mei 2026 **Wat:** Techday – conferentie-editie “AI kansen en valkuilen” **Voor wie:** Iedereen (!) die nieuwsgierig is en wil leren **Agenda** 14:45 - 15:00 - Inloop 15:00 - 16:00 - Neurale netwerken 16:15 - 17:15 - AI risico’s en kansen 17:15 - 18:00 - Eten 18:00 - 18:45 - Fraude fabriek We zien je graag op de Techday!
