Authentic Games Berlin
**We are starting into a new round of having some human magic happen :)**
**What to expect at an Authentic Games Berlin event?**
Authentic Relating is embodied communication practice. We search for authenticity – staying true to your needs, feelings and boundaries – while relating to other human beings with their needs, feelings and boundaries.
**Theme of the evening: Taking Space, Giving Space**
Have you ever felt torn between needing rest at home and feeling obliged to go out, meet friends, and be part of things? Have you ever gotten stuck in a conversation where everything is about them and there seems to be no space for you? Or on the other hand, have you ever occupied a shared space in a way that leaves little room for others? The art of taking and giving space is not always easy. It calls for presence, self‑awareness, attunement, reading the room, and moving fluidly between expressing yourself and making room for others. In this session, through Authentic Relating games we will practice how to honor self and other and navigate the relational dynamics of creating shared space, where connection can unfold in a way that feels balanced for everyone.
And as usual: Come Curious - Leave Connected.
Join us on Tuesday, **16th June** 2026 at **Café Maggie**, [Frankfurter Allee 205, 10365 Berlin](http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Frankfurter%20Allee%20205%2C%2010365%20Berlin), **7–9 pm** (please come to land up to 15 minutes earlier, as we start at the full hour, doors close at 7 pm)
**Price**
The event is donation based. Cash or PayPal only, no registration needed. Suggested donation: 8-20 €. No one will be turned away due to the lack of funds.
**What to bring?**
Nothing but you. You have everything you need to take part in this experience of human connection.
**Everyone is welcome to join. Even if you are on the waitlist here on Meet-Up, please come and join us - we will have a spot for you.**
**No previous experience with Authentic Relating Practices needed.**
**Spread the word. Bring a friend - all are welcome. We look forward to seeing you there.**
**Accessibility and diversity note**
We aim to make our Authentic Games events accessible and diverse. We would like to explicitly welcome everybody, regardless of age, social background, identity, body shape, (dis)abilities etc. We put effort into dismantling biases and systems of oppressions we participate in as well as meeting various access needs. Feel free to contact us at [[authenticgamesberlin@gmail.com](http://authenticgamesberlin@gmail.com)]([mailto:authenticgamesberlin@gmail.com](http://mailto:authenticgamesberlin@gmail.com)) if you have any concerns or questions in this regard.
Authentic Games events are based on talking and listening to other people in pairs, trios or bigger groups. Depending on the number of participants, this may generate a considerable level of noise in the space.
The event is held in English with possible translation to German or Polish. While playing the game you can talk in a language you choose with your partner(s). Sometimes the games may also involve movement (for example walking). Consensual touch with other participants is allowed but never necessary.
The upcoming event is happening in Café Maggie at Frankfurter Allee 205 – next to U-Bahn Magdalenenstraße. The space is on the ground floor, but there is one small doorstep at the entrance. There is a barrier free toilet inside. Despite the name, you cannot buy drinks in Café Maggie, but we provide water and tea for participants.

Sunday Walk & Talk
Want to meet like-minded people without the forced vibe of "business" events?
We walk, we talk, we move forward — together.
Every Sunday we meet at Kottbusser Brücke in Neukölln for an easy stroll along the canal (\~1h).
The idea is simple: we walk in small rotating groups and talk about what we're into — projects, goals, ideas, life. No pitching, no pressure, just ambitious people in Berlin getting to know each other on the move.
The best conversations — and friendships — happen while walking. We wrap up with coffee for anyone who wants to keep it going.
📍 Meet: Kottbusser Brücke
🕙 Sundays, 14
Come as you are.
*Bring a friend for Free* A Sensual 5Rhythms Dance Journey
**Summer Love - Bring a friend for free.**
I love the summer time and the way the sun extends the perception of day into the night. Late nights with friends takes on a whole new flavor during these summer months. So – for the month of June– **you are invited to bring your friend along (for free)** to share this precious space x dance together.
**✧ FOR YOU ✧**
Maybe you’re curious about eroticism as life force —
about playing with sensuality, clothing, and aliveness in a safe(r) space. Maybe you just love good music and want to dance outside the club.
CLOSER x-dance is for all who want to explore the meeting of movement, creativity x life force energy.
CLOSER x-dance is open to all, creating a safe(r) space for different horizons, sexual orientations and experiences.
***No previous experience required.***
**✦ WHAT IS CLOSER x-dance ✦**
CLOSER x-dance is a dedication to unshackling any chains that teach us to separate our inherent er-t\*c aliveness from the rest of ourselves. It is an invitation to embrace the sensual when it arises, to grant permission to our emotions, and to move with creative play in a spontaneous movement journey.
Guided by an eclectic wave of sound and inspirational prompts,
you’ll move through the 5Rhythms — five life energies that rise and fall like a wave.
✺ **Three ingredients shape each journey** ✺
✺ Celebration of you - Nothing to get "right"
✺ Invitations - Follow what feels true for you
✺ Presence - Dance becomes a meditation in motion

Berlin Sprachcafé. Learn and practise German easily (A1-A2)

We mainly practise on a beginner/lower intermediate level and adapt to everyone's prior level of German.
The Language Café will focus on teaching you the most important words and phrases and basic grammar in German. The content of the course is adapted to real life. (everyday life in Germany, dealing with authorities, etc.) We will cover different topics every week and you can join us anytime, since the topics do not necessarily build on each other.

How to Get Over Losses and Betrayls & Build Lasting Relationships
Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships?
Are you burdened by a stressful relationship?
Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival, while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!
This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Free In-Person Event: Handle Self-Confidence & Motivation to Achieve Your Goals
This is an in-person meeting.
Would you like to know the Real You, not just a shadow of yourself? Does your life energy feel somehow trapped within? Does your self-confidence get easily shaken? Do you get in the way of your own goals? We will discuss the real source of all this, what holds you back in life, and how to handle it so you can achieve more successful and happier living.
Perhaps you get weighed down with negative emotions you can't seem to shrug off. Or find yourself doing strange and irrational things - not really being yourself. We will cover why that is and tools that work to help you unearth your self, your self-confidence and motivation.
This meeting will help you learn about how to effectively overcome:
-Out-of-control unwanted emotions
-Low self-esteem
-Anxiety
-Negativity
-Stress
-Irrational fears
-Traumatic or painfully emotional incidents
-Breakups
-Betrayals
-Feeling like you're not really yourself
-Self-doubt...
We will discuss how to unleash the inner you and tap into your true potential. So come to this online meetup!
