**The most enjoyable way to meet new people without going clubbing! ✨** Tancheerna is unlike any dance event you’ve ever been to—there are no complex routines or staring at your feet. We hit the play button at 19:00 and start right away with fun group dances that are so simple, even children can do them. Later we blend in some easy couple dances mixing European classics, modern folklore, and smooth Latin rhythms. Our evenings are all about **great music, laughter, and the simple joy of moving together.** You don’t need a partner or any dance experience to join us. As long as you can sway to the rhythm, you belong. We use fun group mixers and rotate constantly, making it the perfect, fresh way to come alone and **connect with everyone naturally**. At 21:00, we wrap up the music and head to the nearby bistro for drinks and socializing. 📍 **Vítkov**: https://maps.app.goo.gl/JqyW62aohn18g5ZB8 **🕒 THE PLAN:** 18:50 - Arrival & Hellos **19:00 - The Music Starts! 🎶** 21:00 - Socializing at Bistro Vítkov 🍻 🎟️ **FREE ENTRY** 🌤️ **Weather Note:** This is an OPEN-AIR event! We dance only if the weather is nice.. 👟 Wear comfy sneakers or go completely barefoot. Pack a water bottle to stay hydrated and a hoodie when the sun goes down. Tančírna (pronounced tahn-cheer-nah) comes from the Czech word "tančit" (to dance) and literally means "a place for dancing".

Hi everyone! Join us on **Friday, July 3rd**, for a screening of [A Private Life](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej2YuO54tjY) at [Kino 35](https://kino35.ifp.cz/). The film begins at **20:30.** I will be at the location around 8pm. Come and say hi (see my photo below for reference). We will be watching a 2025 French mystery thriller, directed and co-written by Rebecca Zlotowski. Jodie Foster plays Lilian Steiner, a respected American psychiatrist living in Paris. When one of her long-term patients dies under circumstances officially ruled a suicide, Lilian becomes convinced that something doesn't add up. Rather than accepting the official explanation, she begins investigating on her own. Expect part psychological thriller, part character study, and part exploration of guilt, perception, professional ethics, and the limits of understanding other people. Come enjoy this screening and stay for a drink and a chat about the film afterward! If you’d like to join us, please **purchase your own ticket** [Here](https://kino35.ifp.cz/cz/program/event4532-soukromy-zivot). I will be sitting in row 7, seat 7. Kind request: if you register to attend but are unable to join, please change your RSVP accordingly. Hope to see you there!

**Would you sacrifice one innocent life if it guaranteed happiness for everyone else?** This is one idea we will discuss at the next Read & Riff meeting, where we'll dive into **Ursula K. Le Guin's short story ‘The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas.’** **Read & Riff is a book club for short story lovers.** We come together to share what we loved, hated, questioned and everything in between about a selected story. Read the selected story in advance, then join Debbie (your host) who will bring questions to guide the discussion and keep the conversation flowing. **There are no experts, no homework beyond the reading, and no right answers. Just good stories and even better conversations.** Join us! **Date:** 3 July 2026 **Time:** 18:30 - 21:30 **Place:** Nerd Alert, Bulharská 924/26, 101 00 Praha 10-Vršovice **Fee:** 50czk per person Story: ‘The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas’ by Ursula K. Le Guin (1973) Link to text: [https://shsdavisapes.pbworks.com/f/Omelas.pdf](https://shsdavisapes.pbworks.com/f/Omelas.pdf) Mark yourself as ‘going’ in the Facebook/meet up events so we can make sure we have enough space.

You went on that retreat, read the book, committed to meditating daily. And here you are at 3 am, drunkenly staring down a Žižkov doner, wondering what happened. Come share your spiritual misadventures. You can bring a story, poem, insight, or simply come and hang out. This is a space for anyone interested in spirituality and meditation. All paths and experiences are welcome! We are meeting at Stromovka Park, near Stromovka Fountain. Bring something to sit on. Pets are always welcome! We’ll start with an opening circle, short group meditation, then move into sharing and discussion. If you arrive while we're meditating, feel free to join us quietly.

Join us for Symposium! 🌞🌻🌳 In antiquity, a symposium was a gathering of friends who came together to recline around a shared table, where wine and conversation flowed freely into the night. Together, they would choose a topic and take turns speaking, listening, and laughing—guided by the rhythms of drink and dialogue. Inspired by this tradition, our Symposium has no set theme. It's an invitation to come together with other curious minds, to offer up questions or ideas, and to vote together on where to begin. Whether you're hungry for connection or simply seeking space to speak and be heard, you're warmly welcomed to join the conversation. Symposium will meet in parks throughout Prague, embracing the sunshine and pleasant weather while we have it. Bring a blanket or something to sit on. There’s no cost to join, but please bring a snack or drink to share, if you're able. Most of all, bring a curious mind and a willingness to learn from the insight of others. Feel free to bring a friend or two--also, children and friendly dogs are welcome! \*\*\* If the weather doesn't cooperate, we'll try to find an alternate venue—so keep an eye on the event chat or your email for updates. Also, despite the origins of the Symposium, our goal is not necessarily to get drunk and the organizer would encourage you not to come with that sole purpose in mind. :) The first 45 minutes of the event will be dedicated to simply getting to know one another, and we highly encourage you to join for this part. We will then vote whether to continue free conversation, to join together in a single conversation, or to split up into multiple groups. Afterwards, you’re welcome to stay or follow onto any spontaneous activity that unfolds. A note on attendance: If you need to cancel, please do so at least a few days in advance and update your RSVP accordingly. This helps honor the host’s efforts and makes space for others who would like to attend. Repeated last-minute cancellations or no-shows may result in being placed on the waitlist for future events.

Let's play badminton at Sports Centre Olšanka. We'll meet at 10.40 and play for 60 minutes. If you have a Multisport card please bring it along, as it will make the court free for you and also reduce the cost for others. If you don't have a Multisport card the game will cost you a maximum of 150 crowns, probably much less. I will cover the cost of the court so please bring cash to pay me. There is a small organisation fee of 20 crowns for all players to participate in this event. Racquets can be rented for 50 crowns.

**These are the hottest days of the year. We will meet on the 4th of July at the entrance of the Planetárium Praha ([Královská obora 233, Bubenec, 170 21 Praha 7](https://www.google.de/maps/place/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x470b94ce6ef24a2d:0x95d62e70e8497a61?sa=X&ved=1t:8290&ictx=111)).** **From 17:00 until 17:15, we will gather in front of the planetarium. After 17:15, we shall then start searching for a nice place under the trees, where we will discuss, eat and drink together until the night…** **If you like to have a philosophical conversation while enjoying the magnificent surroundings of the Stromovka Park, come and join us, the only condition for joining is that you bring something to eat and to drink with you. We will put all the delicious things on a blanket so that we don’t exchange only arguments…** **Even though I normally don’t determine a topic in advance, I would like to ask you this time to make a list of some of your favorite movies. Try to imagine you have to convince another person that these movies are great. What would you say? What makes these movies important for you? What important (philosophical) questions do these movies raise or maybe even answer?**

Join us for a slow Sunday morning coffee, real conversation, and meaningful connection at Crunch in Žižkov. This is a space for people who want to meet others in a more present, human, and grounded way. No awkward networking energy. Just coffee, conversation, and a chance to hear each other beyond job titles. We will gather at 10:00 am. Grab a coffee, and if you feel like it, you can also have breakfast. Together, we will explore simple questions like: \- Where are we in life right now? \- What are we building\, creating\, changing\, or dreaming about? \- What kind of support would feel helpful? \- How can we help each other\, connect each other\, or simply witness each other? The intention is to create a warm space where we can meet as whole humans, not only through what we do for work. Whether you are an entrepreneur, creative, coach, founder, freelancer, corporate professional, artist, multipassionate soul, or someone in transition, you are welcome. Come as you are. Bring your curiosity, openness, and willingness to connect in a real way.

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.

Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few. How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again. So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that. Come join us! Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Here is the secret of being positive and free: Thinking positively is not enough. You also have to get rid of the negative thinking. Your mind is like a garden. You can plant many beautiful flowers in it, but if you don't get rid of the weeds when you plant your flowers, the weeds will soon take over the whole garden. A positive thought is like a flower in your mental garden, and a negative thought is like a weed. You cannot expect to have a positive mindset if you continue to have negative thoughts dwelling and growing there. So, how do you get rid of the negative thoughts? That's what this Meetup is all about. Attend this local meeting and find out! The Meetup event will be led by a consultant who had helped many people live happier in life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics & Scientology life improvement center.

The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience. And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree. In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again. Examples of painful experiences include: * A broken relationship or divorce. * Death or loss of a loved one. * Death of a pet. * A sudden shock or bad news. * A betrayal. * Being part of an abusive relationship. * A bad injustice. * Loss of a job, position or business. * A grave illness or injury. The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored the Dianetics & Scientology Self-Improvement Center.
