Montag Training
Montag Training
20:00 Umgezogen in der Halle, Umkleiden sind vorhanden. Damen: Kabine 4 Herren: Kabine 12 * SelbststĂ€ndiges AufwĂ€rmen * Meistens ein Torwartspiel * Einwerfen (Hin und her passen) * Torwarte einwerfen * Handballspezifische Übungen * Match (falls genug Leute da sind) Training basiert auf dem Plan des Trainers und den anwesenden Personen, kann also ein bisschen abweichen. Da die Mannschaft nach einigen AbgĂ€ngen momentan etwas kleiner ist, klappt ein Match am Ende nicht immer. Die Einstiegsschwierigkeit ist beim Handball etwas hoch, aber es ist eine sehr belohnende AktivitĂ€t. Am besten einfach mal vorbeikommen, ich erklĂ€re und helfe gern bei allen Fragen, im und vor dem Training :) Auch von Vorteil, wenn ihr mich vor dem Vorbeikommen kontaktiert, dann wĂŒrde ich euch z.B. vor der Halle abholen.
Interactiv Tango Training
Interactiv Tango Training
## BASIC Montags von 18:30 bis 19:45 Uhr. Dieses Training ist gedacht fĂŒr alle Leute, die keine Erfahrung mit argentinischem Tango haben und diesen Tanz lernen wollen und die die bereits Erfahrung mit argentinischem Tango haben, jedoch mit meiner Methode ([TangoGermano](http://www.tangogermano.com/d/didaktik.html)) nicht vertraut sind. Im Kurs entwickeln wir die Grundlagen um den Tango zu lernen. Wenn sie gefestigt sind, wird der Lernprozess schneller und weniger schwierig sein. #### Diese Kurse finden in [Hasenauerstrasse 38](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=hasenauerstra%C3%9Fe+38) \- 1190\, Wien statt\. Wir freuen uns auf Euch! [www.tangogermano.com](http://www.tangogermano.com/d/training.html)

Last Date of the Year (35-49 Jahre)
**Zwischen den Jahren liegt dieser ganz eigene Zauber: ein Moment, in dem alles möglich scheint – das Alte klingt noch nach, das Neue klopft schon leise an.** Genau darum geht’s an diesem Abend – kurz durchatmen, lachen, Geschichten teilen und mit einem guten GefĂŒhl Richtung 2026 starten. Mit lockeren GesprĂ€chsrunden, Mini-Ideen und kleinen Momenten, die Spaß machen – von spontanen Throwbacks bis zu einem Augenzwinkern Richtung Neues Jahr. Statt Bleigießen oder Böller: Begegnungen, GesprĂ€che und kleine Impulse, die zum LĂ€cheln, Nachdenken oder einfach Weiterreden anregen. Vielleicht teilst du eine Erinnerung, schreibst einen Wunsch auf – oder entdeckst bei jemand anderem etwas, das hĂ€ngenbleibt. Ein paar kleine Jahresend-Inspirationen begleiten uns – offen, unkompliziert und ohne Kitsch. Ein Abend, der Lust macht auf Neues – und Menschen, die vielleicht bleiben. **Das erwartet dich an diesem Abend:** * **Rotierende Mini-Runden** – klar strukturiert, locker moderiert * **Karten, Impulse und kleine Aktionen**, die GesprĂ€che leicht ins Rollen bringen * **Eine AtmosphĂ€re zwischen RĂŒckblick und Aufbruch** – offen, herzlich, ohne Erwartungen * **Pre-Silvester ohne Druck:** Lockere Impulse statt strenger Rituale – mit Platz fĂŒr Spontanes. **Im Ticket ist ein 15 Euro Konsumations-Gutschein enthalten.** Das bedeutet, ihr bekommt eine Pre-Paid-Karte, mit der ihr aus der Variation der GetrĂ€nke und des Essens der StĂ€nde auswĂ€hlen könnt. Falls euch ein Restwert auf der Karte ĂŒbrig bleibt, könnt ihr den auch an einem anderen Tag im Gleis//Garten nutzen. ### Über uns Wir sind spezialisiert auf Dating Events, die Verbindungen in entspannter AtmosphĂ€re ermöglichen. Unser Ziel ist es, Singles zusammenzubringen, ohne Stress – dafĂŒr mit Raum fĂŒr wertschĂ€tzende GesprĂ€che. https://slowdatingevents.at **\#\# Wie bekomme ich ein Ticket?** Ticketverkauf: [Eventbrite](https://www.eventbrite.at/e/last-date-of-the-year-35-49-jahre-tickets-1970700365844?aff=oddtdtcreator) Mehr Informationen: [slowdatingevents.at](https://slowdatingevents.at/)

Last Date of the Year (27-42 years) - ENGLISH
***There’s a special kind of magic hidden between the years: a moment when everything feels possible – the old still echoes, while the new is already knocking softly*.** That’s exactly what this evening is about – taking a breath, laughing, sharing stories, and heading toward 2026 with a good feeling. With relaxed conversation rounds, mini-ideas, and small moments that spark joy – from spontaneous throwbacks to little winks toward the New Year. Instead of lead-pouring or fireworks: encounters, conversations, and gentle impulses that make you smile, reflect, or simply keep talking. Maybe you’ll share a memory, write down a wish – or notice something in someone else that stays with you. A few small year-end inspirations will guide us – open, easygoing, and free of kitsch. An evening that invites new beginnings – and maybe introduces you to people who stay. **What to expect this evening:** * **Rotating mini-rounds** – clearly structured, lightly moderated * **Cards, prompts, and small actions** that help conversations flow easily * **An atmosphere between reflection and fresh beginnings** – open, warm, without expectations * **A pre-New Year’s vibe without pressure:** gentle impulses instead of strict rituals – with room for spontaneity **The ticket includes a € 15 drink/food voucher.** Which means you can choose with your pre-paid card between a variety of drinks and food from the stands. If there is a rest value, you can also use it on another day at the Gleis//Garten. ### Über uns Wir sind spezialisiert auf Dating Events, die Verbindungen in entspannter AtmosphĂ€re ermöglichen.

Open Dialogue – Discovering Together in Vienna
Open Dialogue – Discovering Together in Vienna
We will meet in a calm and friendly place ( Parc, CafĂ©, Restaurant) to explore together some of Jiddu Krishnamurti’s key questions about awareness, relationship, and freedom. There will be no teaching, no authority — only open dialogue and attentive listening. Everyone is welcome, whether you are familiar with Krishnamurti or simply curious about life and self-understanding. We’ll start with an open conversation around a theme such as “Listening without judgment” or “Can thought bring clarity?” Please bring openness, curiosity, and a readiness to listen — no books or notes needed. The spirit is not to discuss “what should be,” but to observe together “what is.”

ADVANCED badminton players wanted!
ADVANCED badminton players wanted!
Thank you for visiting this event page! * Are you an advanced badminton player? If yes - WELCOME! * The earlier you sign up, the bigger your chance to reserve a place - once 9 other players have signed up already, you move to the waiting list. * Once the waiting list has 3 or more members, I will try to book an additional court, but no guarantees. I need to close the registration 24h before the event as I will then have to decide whether to cancel any court due to a shortage of players. You can still contact me if you want to play though. The fee per player will be €10.00 for 2 hours as the cost of both shuttles and court bookings have increased. But this should now cover also shuttles used during play. Please be on time as a curtesy to the other players. In addition, if you are on the players' list and don't come (i.e. no show), you will be automatically excluded from this group.

Contra dance with Big Scioty on Jan 3 - First Congregational Church
Contra dance with Big Scioty on Jan 3 - First Congregational Church
**Caller: Gaye Fifer** **Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

Our January program is privileged to have Kristen Tregar as our speaker. Ms. Tregar is the co-author with John de Lancie (the actor who portrayed the character Q on Star Trek next generation) of a radio play depicting the events surrounding the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial. The trial decided the issue of some of the Dover school district board members attempting to insert creationism disguised as "intelligent design" into the 9th grade biology curriculum. She will discuss the trial and the process of writing the play. (Bob Leonhard has seen the play and it is riveting and tense). Ms. Tregar's bio is below: Kristen Tregar is a dramaturg, director, playwright, and theatre teacher. She earned her Ph.D. in Drama and Theatre from the UC San Diego and UC Irvine joint program. In addition, she has a MS in Forensic Science from City University of New York- John Jay College of Criminal Justice and a MA in Educational Theatre from New York University- Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. In 2013, in collaboration with Irish colleagues, she founded *The Ireland Project*, an intercontinental devised theatre work with high school students in New York and Tallaght, Ireland. Her original short story "Far From Here" was recently published in *Stay Awhile Longer: More Scenes From Temecula Valley*. She has two rescued dogs (Kira and Harry) and she rides, competes, and foxhunts with her horses, Andromache and Baker Street Irregular. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
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. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.

Solopreneurs Drinking Coffee — First Event
Solopreneurs Drinking Coffee — First Event
First attempt at this. If it's good, we'll do it again. If it sucks, we tried. (Event photo is from a recent trip to Flagstaff. Stock photos of fake people drinking coffee are the worst.) **Why I'm doing this:** You're the average of the people you spend the most time with. Running a business solo means I've been spending most of my time with myself. And AI tools, which are great for thinking through business problems, but terrible for actual human connection. I want to raise that average. Looking for people who want real conversations. Not networking, not pitches, just the kind of talk that makes you think differently about what you're building and why. If we all end up making a few friends along the way, even better. **What to expect:** Coffee. Conversation. No pitches, no elevator speeches, no going around the table introducing ourselves like it's a corporate icebreaker. Just show up and talk like a normal human. **Ground rules:** * No pitching your business * No recruiting * No MLM talk * No hustle porn **RSVP cap:** 6 people max so it doesn't turn into a crowd. **Location:** Transcend Coffee & Roastery in Grove City **Time:** Friday, January 16th at 11 AM. See you there!
