BBS Ballet Workout – RSVP
I'm really excited to announce our next Meet Up event. It will take place at Core studio in Rennweg
Rennweg 12, 8001 Zurich.
The is dedicated to everyone who likes the idea of exercising with the music, dancing and learning a bit of ballet. Find out how to set up the a great posture, learn about body conditioning as well as mind & body connection. Unlike at most general adult ballet classes we will show you how exercise with the precision and focus, getting great results.
A great class for those who already have little knowledge of ballet or other forms of dance. Our classic Ballet Body Sculpture workout class, including mat exercises, ballet barre, and centre practice. Designed to sculpt and tone a perfect ballet body, as well as stretch, lengthen, and align all muscles for a great posture.
You will need to bring a smile, some water and wear comfortable exercise cloths. The class will be 60 minutes which should be more than enough to get those muscles warmed up and you posturised ready for the next session.
There's a small cost to cover the venue and facilities - CHF 40.-

🌅 Weekly Morning Walk with Dogs
Let’s start our Thursday with a relaxed outdoor walk together with dogs 🐕🌲
This is a weekly, easy-paced morning walk in Leimbach area, perfect to get some fresh air before work and let the dogs move and sniff in nature.
Possonoe coffee at Kuhn bakery in Manegg afterwards.
**What to expect**
• Easy, relaxed pace
• Path along the river and green areas
**When**
📅 Every Thursday
🕖 07:00 - 08:00
**Where**
📍 Leimbach station
**Good to know**
We go unless the weather is really bad.
If it’s rainy, we keep it short and stay on the flat paths.
ZH3 Hash # 1719: Taproom Taper Time
Hare is Keys to the Treasure.
Since Zurich Marathon weekend is approaching, this'll be an easy and short trail with a focus on fluid replenishment :)
**Where**:
Brauerei Oerlikon, in Oerlikon.
Look for English speakers wearing running gear.
**When:**
We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm.
There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards.
**All Welcome:**
If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know:
• We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful.
• The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun.
• 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further.
• The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
• There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change.
• **After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards.
**Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?**
If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it.
'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.*
We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

¿Quién quiere salir a pasear?
Suiza. Si, Suiza es diferente.
Hay unas tiendecitas donde tomas tu producto directamente y dejas el dinero. Y funcionan!
Suiza. Tiene mil caminos preciosos en la ciudad y en la naturaleza esperando a que los descubran.
Suiza, ay!, me tiene enamorada!
Cuando llegue de mi pais aqui hace más de 11 años, fue muy duro, si.
El idioma... El suizo creo que lo entiendo un 30%... o bueno un 20% si hablan con muchas ggrgrgr.
Pero con el aleman me defiendo. Y si no, en inglés. Y si no en español que muchas personas aqui ven novelas hispanas en la tele o han estado 2 meses en Buenos Aires o Madrid y te entienden perfectamente.
Y si no por señas! Que al final te haces una experta en lenguaje corporal y no hace falta ni hablar! 😂
Bromas aparte, me habria gustado aprender mas rápido todo lo bueno que tiene este pais para ofrecer.
Este plan es una pequeña muestra de ello.
Una actividad guiada pensada para hacer nuevas amistades, disfrutar del entorno y pasar un buen rato juntas.
🐕 Para todos los publicos. Peques y perritos son muy bienvenidos!
Una caminata suave de unos 6 km, de Stettbach a Zurich pasando por una granja local donde:
🥛Se puede comprar leche fresca (lleva botella), 🥚🥚🥚, 🧀 y más productos de granja.
🐄 Disfrutar de acariciar terneros y vacas
🐎 Ver caballos y muchas aves.
Opcionalmente podemos hacer una pequeña pausa para tomar algo o improvisar picnic.
Si te apetece, puedes traer un cuaderno de dibujo o hacer fotos — me encanta observar detalles de la naturaleza (sin necesidad de experiencia artística).
Apuntate, no te lo pienses mas!! Unos dias antes segun el clima, confirmamos la salida ;)
Un abrazo
Margaam

you need to be fit and have good hiking shoes.
The concert begins at 7:00 p.m., so let’s aim to finish the hike 15 min before it starts to have a good place. The last kilometers are along the Zürich lake. If we are late, we can take a bus. If we are too early (and the water not too cold), we can swim,

**If the hike is not long enough for you:**
The hike start only at 11:15 because I suppose walking 7:30 is already long for a lot of people but, don't hesitate to tell in the whatsapp group if you what to make it longer by starting earlier. The only constraint is to be in Altmatt before 11:15 to join the main group.
**Registration:**
To sign up, please select "Yes" in the WhatsApp community survey for this activity:
[🌄 Switzerland Discovery Crew (Preferred Ages 18-35)🌄 | WhatsApp-Kanal](https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaoercY1XquRrJm58k3V)
If the event will happen in more than 30 days, I haven't added the survey in the channel yet. (Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group)
If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group).
Please sign up only when you are certain!
You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.

Sunday at Highbanks Metro Park
We will meet next to the restrooms at the [Big Meadows Picnic Area](https://www.metroparks.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/HBK_Web_1980.png). They're all the way at the back of the park, and they can be found at coordinates [40°09'06.6"N 83°02'30.2"W](https://www.google.com/maps/place/40%C2%B009'06.6%22N+83%C2%B002'30.2%22W/@40.151828,-83.0423587,214m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m10!1m5!3m4!2zNDDCsDA5JzA4LjAiTiA4M8KwMDEnNDUuMSJX!8m2!3d40.1522222!4d-83.0291944!3m3!8m2!3d40.151827!4d-83.041715?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTIwNC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) (near the playground and the zip line).
We'll hike about 5 miles at [Highbanks Metro Park](https://www.metroparks.net/parks-and-trails/highbanks/) on the Dripping Rock and Overlook Trails. Afterward, we'll head over to [Olentangy River Brewing](https://www.olentangybrew.com/) for drinks, coffee, or food (their Sunday [food truck](https://www.olentangybrew.com/eventsandfood) is Venezuelan and always gets good reviews).
The actual address of the brewery is [303 Green Meadows Dr S, 43035](https://www.google.com/maps/place/303+Green+Meadows+Dr+S,+Lewis+Center,+OH+43035/@40.1551938,-83.0144045,17.25z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x8838f395cef06c97:0xe407de61b3e30069!8m2!3d40.1551765!4d-83.0124352!16s%2Fg%2F11c26jc7j9?entry=ttu). If you can't make the hike, we should be there by noon.
**How to find our starting point in Big Meadows:**
If you are new to Highbanks, the Big Meadows picnic area is 1.5 miles into the park just after you turn into the park off of U.S. Route 23. That is, after you enter the park, drive a mile and a half into the park. You will come to a crosswalk with a yield sign in the middle of it (this is not to be confused with the first such crosswalk you come to just in front of the Nature Center, which you arrive at maybe a quarter of a mile into the park).
Just after this second crosswalk, make a left. Then make another almost immediate left into the parking lot on your left. There you will see the jungle gym and the kiddie zip line to your left. I will be just in front of the restrooms just a bit further down from the jungle gym and picnic shelter; the restroom building will also be on your left.
