Julia's Salon - Social Butterfly Club š¦
In the spirit of a 19th-century salon, this gathering will be a space for lively conversations, fascinating encounters, and the exchange of ideas over drinks. Whether youāre new in town or a local looking to expand your social circle, this is the perfect opportunity to connect with like-minded explorers of Berlinās nightlife.
Each week, we shine a spotlight on a **special guest** from our community ā someone who brings along a topic theyāre passionate about or deeply engaged with.
Itās not a presentation or a performance, but rather a gentle invitation into conversation: a starting point for curiosity, questions, and unexpected connections. The topic can naturally weave its way into the evening, without needing to take over.
If youād like to be our next special guest, feel free to reach out via the contact form: [https://socialbutterfly.berlin/contact/](https://socialbutterfly.berlin/contact/)
This time, weāre excited to introduce **Erik**, whoās been thinking about how we meet new people in a digital world.
Erik has been developing his own app, inspired by the idea of making spontaneous, local gatherings more visible ā and connecting with whatās happening around us in the moment.
How do you usually meet new people ā and what makes you stay in touch?
Orga
The location is cash only. It is non-smoking (with a separate room for smoking).
Weāll be sitting on the couches in the first room.

š Flow is a state of being⦠an experience when you allow yourself to be 100% fully engaged in the present moment in a feedback loop between clarity and satisfaction.

⢠a game where itās possible to feel excited and calm in the same moment, and everyone can win as much as they likeā¦
Scott Bolden, founder of Das Baumhaus Berlin will share some very easy, practical and effective methods developed during the last 12 years of facilitating the āImprovisational Groove Orchestraā (I.G.O.) improv vocal jam sessions.
Within 20 minutes participants learn to use the common sound space to create resonance in the form of improvisational music where it is quite common to experience some real flow momentsā¦
It is very easy to participate, no musical talent or training is required so anyone is welcome to join. All of the session is done with eyes closed to avoid visual distractions and keep focus on the co-created sound space. During these sessions we will also have short breaks for feedback and refreshment.
Important ā Please be on time. It is very important to understand the methodology and warm up in the group before joining in!

Ultimate Frisbee in the Park - sunset sparkle
Hi everyone. We'll meet and play a relaxed game of ultimate in Volkspark Rehberge if the weather cooperates.
Our games focus on having great team play, where the teams work together to advance the disk down the field. It's more important to work well together as a team than have a few star players get a point with lucky shots. For this reason, players of all skill levels (especially those who have never played) are welcome to join
Bring plenty of water, shoes you can run in and comfortable clothing that can get a bit dirty.
Although we're an established group, newcomers are always welcome.
After the game we try to spend some time together and have fun.
Finding us: We meet in this big grassy area, it's a short bike ride from the subway stop Rehberge on the U6 or Amrumer Strasse on the U9. It can be a bit tricky to find the first time, so we've got a few methods to help out (don't trust the meetup map pin, it often shows some point in the park, not the exact spot where we are)
1. GPS: 52°32'54.9"N 13°19'51.0"E ; 52.548581, 13.330842

*This event may also be photographed and/or video-recorded, and published on social media channels such as meetup and eventbrite.*
*By participating, you acknowledge and accept the risk of injury while playing Ultimate. Although adherence to the rules, proper equipment, and common sense reduce this risk, the risk of serious injury does exist; and, you willingly and freely assume all such risks.*

šø Photo Walk & Poetry in the Park šæš ā Social Butterfly Club š¦
After a lovely first Poetry in the Park gathering in Bürgerpark Pankow, weāre bringing the idea into a second round ā this time with a photographic twist.
Join us for a spring afternoon around Schloss Charlottenburg where photography and poetry meet.
Bring a poem you love ā or one you wrote ā and weāll begin by reading a few poems together.
Then weāll set out for a gentle 30 minute photo walk through the park, capturing details that catch our attention: blossoms, reflections, statues, hidden corners, fleeting scenes.
Using the images we gather as inspiration, weāll meet again on picnic blankets to write short poems from guided prompts and share them in an informal circle.
No photography skills needed.
No poetry experience required.
Just curiosity, observation, and a bit of spring magic.
Bring:
* A poem to share (optional)
* A journal + pen
* Your phone or camera
* A picnic blanket
Duration: approx. 2 hours.

If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1
