Scaling Scrum

Due ore di puro divertimento e competizione: 4 partite di **padel** da mezz’ora ciascuna, in un **format dinamico e avvincente**. **1 gruppo: livello avanzato.** Ogni match conta: chi vince va nel campo dei più forti, chi perde va nel campo dei più scarsi. Ogni volta le coppie si scoppiano e vanno l'uno contro l'altro, mantenendo le posizioni (sx/dx) sempre fisse. Solo la coppia che trionferà nell’ultima partita del campo dei più forti potrà fregiarsi del titolo di **“Re della Settimana”** 👑. Preparati a scalare la vetta… o a lottare per non retrocedere. Il Rodeo Padel non perdona, ma ti farà divertire come mai prima! Livello richiesto: **Playtomic 4.0 – 6.0.** Luogo: **Padel Zenter Scalo Farini** \| Via Valtellina\, 5\, 20158 **Milano** MI Costo: **20€ a testa** per **due ore di padel** (potrai **pagare direttamente al centro sportivo** con carta o contanti; qui l'iscrizione è gratuita). Al momento dell’iscrizione all'evento, se è il tuo primo evento con QuellidelPadel, comunica il tuo numero di cellulare (solo l'organizzatore potrà vederlo e utilizzarlo per contattarti su **Whatsapp** **per la conferma**). Nessun reel, nessuna telecamera addosso: solo padel vero, risate, foto di gruppo e premi per i vincitori. Unica regola: **chi perde passa sotto la rete.** **Che fai, vieni?** **Termine iscrizioni: giovedì 18 dicembre**

ENG Saturday morning in Milan, what’s the plan? Let’s recharge our batteries to get ready for the weekend. Leave behind what’s past, take the best from it, and turn it into **pure energy** for this Saturday morning practice. Music will be the base of our body's movement and expression: the rythm will guide our steps and canalise our energies and emotions into something very creative and powerful. Bring a **sports towel** and **sport clothes and sneakers**. (there are changing rooms if you need them!) Don’t forget **water** to rehydrate — and your desire to recharge! We’ll meet outside **Dunamis Loreto – Gym of the Arts**. This part of the event is totally FREE and sponsored by MeetUp! And after the event, the sweetest part: no matter what time it is: it's always time for an aperitivo! let's choose a bar and have some food and drink together! ITA Sabato mattina a Milano, qual è il piano? Ricarichiamo un po' le batterie per prepararci al meglio al fine settimana. Lasciamo ciò che è stato della settimana scorsa alle spalle, prendiamone il buono e trasformiamolo in **energia pura** per questa pratica del sabato. La musica sarà la base del movimento e dell'espressione del nostro corpo: lasceremo che sia il ritmo a guidare i nostri passi e a canalizzare le nostre energie ed emozioni in un momento di grande creatività e libertà espressiva Porta il tuo **asciugamano da sport** e **acqua** per reidratarti, **abbigliamento e scarpe sportivi** (ci sono gli spogliatoi, se devi cambiarti!) e... voglia di ricaricare le batterie! Ci troviamo fuori dalla **Dunamis Loreto - Palestra delle Arti.** Questa parte di evento è totalmente GRATUITA e sponsorizzata da MeetUp! E dopo l'esercizio, la parte più dolce: non importa se è mezzogiorno: è sempre l'ora giusta per un aperitivo!

We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country. Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply. ### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?** Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment. ## **Why Join?** * **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance. * **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space. * **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection. ## **The Ideal Group Leader** The ideal group leader * Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community. * Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us. * Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind. * An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection. * An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms. * Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus. ## **Our Impact**  Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported: * A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being. * An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging. * Said they would return again. We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself. ### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based** Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission! Every contribution helps us: * **Cover Essential Costs** – Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization. * **Grow Our Mission** – With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year. By choosing to contribute, you’re not just leading an event—you’re helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic. ## **Come Join Us!** We’d love to have you be part of this growing community of people prioritizing their mental health, movement, and connection. 🔹 **Visit Our Website to Learn More:** https://speakyourmind.men/joinusoutside 🔹 **Apply Here to Lead Your Own Group!** – https://form.jotform.com/taketimespeakyourmind/sym-group-leader-application 🔹 **Support the mission**: If you resonate with the mission and want to support, feel free to join a group before applying or donate to help us reach our goals to help more people!
