Meetup for French and English conversationalists of a "certain age."
Notre meet-up réunit une fois par semaine anglophiles et francophiles de plus de cinquante ans afin de discuter de tout et de rien. Le but est d'offrir la possibilité aux uns et aux autres de pratiquer la langue dans laquelle ils souhaiteraient se perfectionner dans un cadre convivial.
Nos directives sont de s'amuser et de respecter les différents points de vue et antécédents personnels. Il est interdit d'insulter ou de dénigrer d'autres membres en raison de leurs antécédents personnels.
Le meet-up se termine précisément à 18h. Si vous souhaitez rester aprÚs 18h, veuillez vous déplacer dans une autre partie du café afin que la direction comprenne bien que la réunion est terminée.
Nous vous invitons à prendre au moins une boisson pour soutenir le cafe. Si vous arrivez tard, vous pouvez commander au bar et le café vous apportera votre commande.
Our meet-up group meets once a week. We are English and French speakers of a "certain age" (over 50), and we meet to talk about everything and nothing. The goal is to offer each of us the chance to practice whichever language he/she is learning, or just to have a conversation in either language with a friendly group in a relaxing atmosphere.
Our guidelines are to have fun and to be respectful of different points of view and personal backgrounds. Insulting or disparaging other members because of their personal background is not permitted.
Our meet-up ends promptly at 6pm. If you wish to remain after 6 pm, please move to a different section of the café so it is clear to management that the meet-up has ended.
Please buy at least a drink to support the café. If you arrive late, you can order at the bar and they will bring your order to you.

Indoor Yoga & Breathwork with Anuradha 75015
**SIGN UP : [yogaclubparis.fr/booking](http://yogaclubparis.fr/booking)**
Aiming to tap your own Prana/Vital force/ life energy to heal yourself and enhance the immunity, this is the class for you!! This class will introduce you to different Pranayama (breathing exercise) and Meditation Techniques and will involve a practice of all these techniques coupled with gentle asana/posture practice. Prana is the vital energy needed by physical and subtle layers on our body. It is the Prana or life force in us that nourishes the mind and keeps the body alive. Pranayama means working in the dimension of Prana and is an integral part of a developing yoga practice. In addition to supporting and deepening your Yoga asana practice, learning ways to calm or invigorate the body through breathing will greatly benefit all aspects of your life. Prior practice of Yoga asana/posture is recommended.

Sacred Womenâs Gathering for Connection, Support & Community
đż June Sistership Circle đż[Get tickets here!! ](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/balancing-the-masculine-feminine-within-june-in-person-sistership-circle-tickets-1989861204428?aff=oddtdtcreator)
Balancing the Masculine & Feminine Within
So many women today find themselves constantly âdoingâ â holding everything together, caring for others, managing responsibilities, pushing through exhaustion, and rarely slowing down long enough to truly receive.
This monthâs circle is an invitation to gently explore the balance between:
âš strength & softness
âš action & surrender
âš structure & flow
âš giving & receiving
âš doing & simply being
Together, weâll gather in sacred community for an afternoon of grounding, reflection, connection, guided meditation, somatic practices, journaling, sharing, and heartfelt conversation.
No two circles are ever the same because each woman brings her own unique energy and medicine into the room.
Whether you are brand new to this type of gathering or have been on a healing journey for years, you are welcome here.
đž Saturday, June 13, 2026
đ 4:00 â 5:30 PM
đ A Call to Spirit, LLC â Chantilly, VA
Come as you are. Leave nourished.
Space is intentionally limited to preserve the intimacy of the circle.
Energizing Walk for Busy People!
Join our weekly walking meetup to have fun, maintain a healthy lifestyle, meet new people, and enjoy nature! We meet Saturdays at 10am, by the bike racks and benches 150 feet in front of BUBBLES Hair Salon in Reston, leaving no later than 10:05.
Every week we'll walk the Green Trail to Lake Anne Plaza (\~1 mile), pause there for 5-10 minutes (water, bio, and from April-Nov a Farmer's Market), then circle the lake (2 miles) before returning to our starting point. It's roughly 3.5 miles and takes about an hour and a half.
Afterwards, some members will often head to a local restaurant to refuel and relax before tackling the rest of the day.
This event is open to all ages and fitness levels, and both friends and dogs are always welcome! We recommend dressing for the weather (umbrella, water bottle, snow shoes, hat, etc.) since we'll always walk, rain or shine.
By signing up, you accept and assume all risks and responsibilities with this activity, and nobody will be held liable.
Learn Meditation and Stress Management in MD
Learn to manage stress and achieve self-growth through simple relaxation and Meditation.
Heartfulness Meditation is a simple, modern, methodical approach to meditation. Rather than homing in on your breath or repeating a mantra, you simply focus inward, on your heart, to cultivate inner strength and serenity. Heartfulness meditation is gaining traction in recent years. It focuses on the heart, allowing individuals to connect with themselves on a deeper level, and ultimately achieve peace, relaxation, and clarity. It is a practice that encourages patience, self-compassion, and acceptance, helping cultivate a deeper appreciation for the present moment.
This practice is offered with love and at no cost

đ„ **Judo adapted to no gi BJJ** \-\- Classical [Judo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judo) throws and **off-balancing principles** translated into a no-gi context, giving grapplers a powerful and often underused takedown arsenal.

đŠ” **Leg locks** \-\- Heel hooks\, kneebars\, ankle locks\, and toe holds \-\- [lower body submissions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leglock) that are increasingly central to high-level no gi competition.
đ **Guard passing and guard retention** \-\- The core positional chess match of BJJ \-\- learning to break through an opponent's guard while protecting your own is fundamental to controlling a match\.
âïž **Kuzushi (off-balancing)** \-\- The Japanese principle of [disrupting an opponent's balance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuzushi) before executing a throw or takedown -- a concept borrowed from Judo that dramatically improves takedown success rates.
