Social Hike: Kaptivating Kahlenberg
Social Hike: Kaptivating Kahlenberg
After a quick train & bus ride from Vienna Main Station (Wien Hauptbahnhof), this easy hike starts at a quaint village known for its harbor and laid-back taverns. Slowly pacing upwards next to a small creek, our group eventually arrives at Kahlenberg's mountain top with what's probably the most captivating scenic spot of entire Vienna. Descending along gentle slopes flanked by lush vineyards, we'll end up at the fringes of Grinzing district for our return commute. To secure your spots, please ... Step 1: RSVP here on Meetup first (optional but recommended) Step 2: Complete your booking at https://vienna.ixpat.com/kahlenberg
Science and Philosophy Discussion Table
Science and Philosophy Discussion Table
This is a group for meeting new people, eating brunch, and having discussions about science, life, philosophy, politics, and people. Anybody is free to join, and we charge no fees. This discussion group aims to have the absolute minimal level of structure necessary to ensure the conversation remains engaging to the majority of people present. In particular, we \*don't\* have fixed order of speaking or timed statements. So far, the balance we've struck is enforcing hand raising when conversation gets intense in order to minimize interruption, and to give the chair (Joel) the power to occasionally call a snap election on the conversation topic.
Weekly Sunday Ice Bathing in the Danube 🧊
Weekly Sunday Ice Bathing in the Danube 🧊
❄️ Welcome to Seek Discomfort – Ice Bathing Club Vienna! 🧊 Ready to do something a little crazy… in the best way? We’re a welcoming community of people who love stepping outside our comfort zones, trying new things, and facing the cold together. No matter who you are, where you’re from, or how old you are — you’re welcome here. New to Vienna? An expat? Just curious? Perfect. Most of our meetups are in English, and it’s a great way to connect with like-minded people. At our sessions, we dip (or swim!) in icy water, support each other, practice optional simple breathing techniques, and discover just how strong we really are — mentally and physically. ❗️Safety first, always. No pressure, no ego. You only do what feels right for you. Expect encouragement, positive energy, and a shared adventure you won’t forget. 🎒 What to bring: Swimsuit, towel, warm clothes, and something hot to drink. Come challenge yourself, feel alive, and maybe even fall in love with the cold. Hope to see you in the water soon 🧊🔥

“Open Mats” Community Hangout — An Evening to Just Be Together
**“Open Mats” Community Hangout — An Evening to Just Be Together** *🕒 Feb 15th, 15:00 – open end (20:30 latest)* *📍Tanz’Hotel (Studio 2), Zirkusgasse 35/4-6, 1020 Wien* **About the evening** This is an Open Mats community hangout — a relaxed, informal space to simply be together. There is **no program,** no workshop, and no guided practice. Instead, we open a shared room with playfight mats, pillows, gentle music and a creative corner, and let the evening unfold naturally. You’re welcome to rest, chat, move, playfight lightly, draw, cuddle, eat together, or **just be by yourself in the company of others.** Most of the time will be about being together, with room for spontaneous moments or offers from participants if they arise. **Think of it as a cosy home party — on playfight mats.** **What to Expect** – An open, welcoming and cosy space – Gentle background music and a creative corner – Time and freedom to connect (or not) – No facilitation, no structure, no goals – A light framework of **consent, safety and care**, shared by everyone *This is not a playfight workshop — even though playfight may naturally appear in a light, informal way.* **Who is this for?** – People curious about relaxed, embodied social spaces – Playfighters who want to meet outside a workshop context – Anyone who enjoys connection without a set program – Those who want to come as they are, without needing to participate in anything specific – You’re welcome whether you’re active, quiet, social, tired, playful — or all of that at once. **Practical Details** 🕒 **Time** 15:00 – doors open We start together and keep the ending open until 20:30 **Location:** Tanz\*Hotel, Zirkusgasse 35/4-6, 1020 Wien 💛 **Contribution** Donation-based, to help cover room costs. No one is turned away for lack of funds. 🍲 **Potluck dinner:** Please bring some food you’re happy to share. Vegetarian dishes only, thank you 🌱 **Joining / soft registration** There’s no formal registration for this event. If you think you might come, we appreciate a short message or a 👍 so we have a rough idea of numbers.

Ecstatic Dance - Circle of Abundance
Ecstatic Dance - Circle of Abundance
**Ecstatic Dance – Circle of Abundance** Gemeinsam erinnern · Verbinden · Manifestieren Am **Sonntag, 15. Februar 2026**, öffnen wir einen besonderen Raum für unsere Community – nicht als etwas, das wir im Außen suchen, sondern als eine Qualität, die entsteht, wenn wir **uns als Gemeinschaft verbinden und gemeinsam ausrichten**. In Zeiten wie diesen ist die K**raft des Miteinanders** ein zentraler Bestandteil unseres gemeinsamen – und zugleich individuellen – Weiterkommens. **Circle of Abundance** lädt uns ein, Fülle nicht nur zu denken, sondern zu verkörpern, zu teilen und miteinander zu stärken. ✨ I**nner Echoes** (Resident Artists in Corfu auf Europa Tour) kehren zurück, um diesen Abend gemeinsam mit uns zu gestalten – mit Tiefe, Präsenz und offenem Herzen.

Special Opening – Abundance Circle Da wir dieses Mal **um 17:00 beginnen**, eröffnen wir den Abend mit einem kraftvollen **Manifestationskreis**, der uns mit klarer Intention stärkt. In einer gemeinsamen Zeremonie erforschen wir das Thema der Fülle, lösen innere Begrenzungen und richten unsere kollektive Kraft bewusst auf das aus, was wachsen möchte. Mit entschlossenen Worten, deiner eigenen Manifestation und einer Einladung in unsere Community. Du kannst auch direkt zum Dance kommen, wie immer. Ein Raum für Begegnung, Ehrlichkeit und gemeinsames Empowerment. Künstler & Rollen 🌱 **Sebastian – Circles** Mit vertrauter Herzlichkeit und einem feinen aber entschlossenen Sinn für das was uns als Kollektiv wirklich voran bringt. ☀️ **Inner Echoes – Ecstatic Dance DJ Set** mit Tom, begleitet von Jennifers Stimme. Kraftvoller Sound, der uns mit Dynamik, Weite und Herzöffnung verbindet. 🌺 **Inner Echoes – Sound Journey & Integration** Klavierklänge (Tom) und Stimme (Jennifer) verweben sich zu einer tiefgehenden, intuitiven Erfahrung, die zum Innehalten, Lauschen und Eintauchen einlädt. **📍 Sonntag, 15.02.2026** 🕔 Start: 17:00 (eine Stunde früher) @ Vitality Base Vienna Leberstraße 118A, 1110 Wien **find.vitalitybase.at** Programmablauf 17:00 **Ankommen & Raumöffnung** 17:15 **Abundance Circle** mit Sebastian 18:30 **Anfangskreis** 18:40 **Tanzeinleitung** mit Inner Echoes (in english) 19:00 **Ecstatic Dance DJ** Set mit Inner Echoes 21:00 **Sound Journey** mit Inner Echoes 21:30 Abschlusskreis & offener Raum 🌿 Förderbeitrag: 24–44 Euro 🔗 Weitere Events: events.vitalitybase.at 🪷 **Circle of Abundance** – wo gemeinsame Ausrichtung zur Quelle von Fülle wird.

Responding the same way, fighting or leaving the pitch is not an option and usually is not solving the problem. Actually, creates other problems. Thank you.
OSHO Active Meditation Day
OSHO Active Meditation Day
**OSHO Active Meditation Day** ![](https://viennabuddhafield.com/wp-content/uploads/osho-nataraj-dance-meditation-1-400x267.jpg) ## OSHO Active Meditation Day **Sontag\, 15\.

Ein ganzer Tag mit **OSHO Aktiven Meditationen** – entwickelt, um deine Lebensenergie zu wecken, Spannung loszulassen und dich in deine Mitte zu bringen. Dieses Mal erforschen wir drei kraftvolle Meditationen: **OSHO No-Dimensions Meditation** Eine aktive Zentrierungsmeditation, basierend auf alten Sufi-Techniken und von Osho weiterentwickelt. Durch Atmung, fließende Bewegungen und Wirbeln sammelt sich deine Energie im Hara – deinem Energiezentrum unterhalb des Nabels. Bewegung und Stille verschmelzen. **OSHO Chakra Sounds Meditation** Mit der Stimme öffnest und harmonisierst du die sieben Energiezentren. Die Schwingungen führen dich in eine tiefe, friedliche Stille – in Einklang mit dir selbst. **OSHO Nadabrahma Meditation** Eine summende Meditation, die Körper und Geist in Harmonie bringt. Wenn beide im Einklang sind, kannst du sie loslassen – und wirst zum stillen Beobachter. ![]() ### **Tagesplan** 10:00 – Beginn & OSHO No-Dimensions Meditation 11:40 – OSHO Chakra Sounds Meditation 13:00 – Gemeinsames Mittagessen (Potluck-Style) 14:00 – OSHO Nadabrahma Meditation 15:30 – Kurzer Sharing-Kreis & Abschluss ### **Mitbringen** * Wasserflasche * Bequeme Kleidung * Etwas Kleines für das gemeinsame Mittagessen **Geleitet von Yogi Levy** Anleitung auf Englisch ![](https://viennabuddhafield.com/wp-content/uploads/Yogi_Aum-074-267x400.jpg) Komm, wie du bist – keine Vorerfahrung nötig.

Rhino Barn Tour @ The Wilds
Rhino Barn Tour @ The Wilds
**Summary** For this event, we will do the [Rhino Barn Tour](https://www.thewilds.org/rhino-barn-tour) at [The Wilds](https://www.thewilds.org/), a ten-thousand acre conservation center in Muskingum County. It is the largest such center in North America and one of the largest in the entire world. During this tour, we'll visit The Wilds' rhino herd in their state-of-the-art heated barns and learn how The Wilds' animal management team takes care of one of the largest herds of rhinos outside of Africa and Asia. **The date and time of this tour** We will be doing the 1:00 p.m. [Rhino Barn Tour](https://www.thewilds.org/rhino-barn-tour) on Saturday, February 28. The tour is scheduled to last 90 minutes. **What you need to do to attend** Signing up here on Meetup will not get you into The Wilds for the tour. You must go out to The Wilds' [website](https://www.thewilds.org/) and [buy a ticket](https://www.thewilds.org/rhino-barn-tour). Please [purchase your ticket](https://www.thewilds.org/rhino-barn-tour), then sign up here on Meetup so I know how many to expect. **Attendance cap** There are only eight total slots/tickets available for this tour. As I obviously have already bought one of the tickets, that leaves seven spaces for everyone else. If you are interested in this event, I urge you to [buy a ticket](https://www.thewilds.org/rhino-barn-tour) at The Wilds' website as soon as possible. Since their website is obviously public, nothing prevents other people having nothing to do with *GOhio!* from buying their own tickets, thereby potentially taking an available slot away from you. **Additional notes on attendance** I have now run several events at The Wilds. While the location of The Wilds and the pricing of the tickets generally leads to small turnouts, the people who have gone have all enjoyed it and were glad they went. If you've never been to The Wilds and you like zoos or animals at all, you are likely to find any tour at The Wilds to be a rewarding experience. **Tickets and pricing** [Tickets](https://www.thewilds.org/rhino-barn-tour) for this tour are $95, or $76 if you're a Wilds' member. I've posted screen shots, below, to help you be sure you're buying tickets for the correct event. Wilds' memberships pay for themselves if you go to The Wilds at least twice a year, and [Columbus Zoo members](https://www.columbuszoo.org/membership) get a discount on memberships to The Wilds. I will always run at least two events a year at The Wilds. Tickets for all Wilds' tours must be purchased at least 24 hours in advance of the actual tour. **Cancellations and refunds** Per The Wilds' [Cancellation Policy](https://www.thewilds.org/policies): *In order to be eligible for refund and accrue no rescheduling fees, cancellations must be made at least 14 days in advance of reservation. Cancellations made within 14 days of reservation will not receive a refund.* You may [contact The Wilds](https://www.thewilds.org/contact) at (740) 638-5030 between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., or you can email them at information@thewilds.org. **Waiver of liability** After you purchase your ticket, you will likely be asked to fill out a waiver of liability. This is a very short document and should take you no more than two minutes to complete. **Where we'll meet** We will meet at The Wilds, whose actual address is [14000 International Rd, Cumberland, OH 43732](https://www.google.com/maps/place/14000+International+Rd,+Cumberland,+OH+43732/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x8837dae07a595557:0xa1ceca93325a8bd1?sa=X&ved=1t:242&ictx=111). Please try to be there by 12:30 p.m. For most Wilds' tours, a shuttle bus will take you to the actual spot of the tour. So think of this as though you're going to the airport to catch a flight. It helps to be on time. The Wilds generally asks that people arrive at least thirty minutes because the scheduled start time of their tour. **GPS / Getting to The Wilds** The Wilds is in a very rural area, but I've never had a problem getting there with my GPS (I have Verizon). I've also uploaded a JPG map, below, of Muskingum County. Sometimes, though, it's hard to get a signal when you're at The Wilds and getting ready to leave. So you might want to consider downloading an offline map in Google Maps. Your cell phone should pick up a signal, however, within a few minutes after you leave. The Wilds' Visitor Center does have free Wi-Fi. **Carpooling?** If you want to carpool, I recommend discussing this in the comments, below, to this event. While I don't myself carpool, I will do what I can to help you arrange something if I can. **The weather** Dress for the weather. Just because the barn is heated doesn't mean it will be warm. And wear closed-toed shoes. Wilds' tours typically run no matter what the weather is. **After the tour** Once we're done with the rhinos, we'll head over to the very highly rated [Y-Bridge Brewing Company](https://ybridgebrewing.com/). The brewery is about thirty minutes from The Wilds, and it will be on the way back to Columbus for most, if not all, of us. The brewery's actual address is [1417 Linden Ave Ste D, Zanesville, OH 43701](https://www.google.com/maps/place/1417+Linden+Ave+d,+Zanesville,+OH+43701/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x8837edd6cc50824f:0xe3a0af1ccb2aefbf?sa=X&ved=1t:242&ictx=111). Y-Bridge Brewing does not serve food; however, they have several [food options](https://ybridgebrewing.com/food-options). I encourage you to check these out ahead of time on their website for yourself. However, here are a few of them: *Within walking distance -- 120 feet away* * [Angry Bull Saloon](https://www.facebook.com/AngryBullSaloonZanesville/) (pizza & subs) * The Corner Pub Sports Bar and Grill (classic bar food) *Delivery options -- [Door Dash](https://www.doordash.com/)* * [4 Star Pizza](https://fourstarpizza.com/), (740) 452-9300 * [Donatos](https://www.donatos.com/), (740) 452-7900 * [Pizza Cottage](https://www.pizza-cottage.com/), (740) 455-6000 * [Dominos](https://www.dominos.com/), (740) 455-3126 * [Papa John's](https://www.papajohns.com/), (740) 450-4100 If you live in the area or can't make The Wilds but still want to meet us at the brewery, that's fine too.
