4. Sonntag / Monat ​Wir laden dich ein, Tango zu entdecken oder bei uns zu üben, wenn Du schon tanzt - egal, ob Du führen, folgen oder nur eine Rolle ausprobieren willst. Warum TANGO? Tango ist eine soziale und körperliche Aktivität, die uns aus der digitalen Welt in die physische und sinnliche Welt zurückführt wie Yoga oder Tai-Chi, was hilft, die Verbindung zum Boden, zu uns selbst und zum Anderen spüren - für gute Laune, Selbstwirksamkeit, digitales Detox. Und: Musik durch Bewegung auszudrücken, mag fast jede/r. 1️⃣ 18.30 ✨ Technik-Deep-Dive: Wir starten mit Basics. Für Anfänger oder Tänzer, die ihre Technik polieren wollen. 2️⃣ 19:30 💃 Praktika zum Üben für Altes und Neues, mit und ohne Partner. Musik ohne Cortinas. 3️⃣ 21:00 🔄 Circular Moves: Ideen, für Bewegungen, wie sie für das soziale Tanzen mit wenig Platz möglich sind. ✨ Open Role, solo oder mit Partner/in: Wir empfehlen zu wechseln, aber das ist keine Verpflichtung. Wohlfühlen steht im Vordergrund: Einladungen können abgelehnt werden: Hi Google, was ist ein Cabeceo? DE / EN We invite you to discover Tango, whether you want to lead, follow, or simply try out a new role. If you already dance, come by to practice! We embrace the classic Practica spirit: a space to learn from one another. Tango is a social and physical activity that brings us back from the digital world into the physical and the sensory realm. Much like Yoga or Tai Chi, it focuses on our connection to the ground, to ourselves and to one another. And let's face it: expressing music through movement is something almost everyone loves. Your hosts are Davide, Nacho, Pietro and Rafa. ✨ ​Wir freuen uns über einen Beitrag zwischen 5 € und 25 €. Limonade, Bier, Wein sind vorhanden. ​Da unsere Türen nur einmal im Monat öffnen, geben wir gerne Tipps, wo ihr in der Zwischenzeit tanzen und üben könnt. Clase: Rafa Hosts: Davide, Nacho, Rafa

Hola, gente bonita 🫶 Lass uns ein Bier trinken, Spanisch-Deutsch sprechen und eine gute Zeit genießen! Grundlegende (oder bessere 😛) Kenntnisse in Spanisch oder Deutsch sind alles, was du brauchst. Vamos a tomar una cerveza, hablar español-alemán y pasarla bien! Un nivel básico (o mejor 😛) de español o alemán es lo único que necesitas.

Stand-up — sharp, personal, and honest — about figuring yourself out when nothing around you feels stable either. **(please click on the link to book seats meetup registerations dont count)** For the past few years, Ayush has been joking about ADHD, mental health, cultural confusion, and the strange logic of trying to build a stable life with an unstable brain. In Built Wrong, Shipped Abroad, he brings those threads together into his first full English solo hour. This show dives into diagnosis, therapy, navigating the German system, dating in Berlin, career misfits, and trying to stay functional while Europe itself seems to move from one crisis to another. If you enjoy comedy that goes beyond surface punchlines and isn’t afraid of uncomfortable truths, this one’s for you. About the Comic Ayush Kulshrestha has been performing stand-up since 2019 and runs Berlin’s ADHD-themed comedy night. After performing in Hindi and English across different cities, Built Wrong, Shipped Abroad marks his first full-length English solo in Berlin.

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. If the weather cooperates we will be meeting in the patio. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

While some are still meeting online, this is an in person event. Please note that we have attendees of all levels of speaking, including some native speakers. All are welcome! Also, as we meet at the same time and place each week, many don’t RSVP on the app, so we will likely have more attendees than noted here. Note: if you are asked to pay and upgrade the Meetup app, this is not necessary. You can ignore this and still attend our meetings.
