**Hear From Our Learners:**
"The Language games session provides a well-structured and immersive way of learning. Even as a beginner I am able to practice all aspects of the language and have learnt a lot whilst having fun!" - Jeremy Smithers
"The Sunday games session is in a classroom environment but relaxed with organized team-based games designed to facilitate conversation. Itโs a good way to consolidate what you know and pick up some new vocab. The folks who attend vary massively in ability so itโs not competitive, but more a chance to learn from people who are more advanced and help along newbies. I recommend it!" - Mark Mansell
**FAQ ๅธธ่ง้ฎ้ข::**
**What if I donโt feel my Chinese is good enough to join?**
Donโt worry, our hosts will be on hand to offer support and help you participate. Many are also group exercises, so you can lean on stronger members too.
**What games will I be playing?**
You'll be diving into a variety of engaging and interactive language activities specifically designed to match your proficiency level! Think fun, familiar formats like Articulate, and creative role-play scenarios.
Our games are carefully designed (by us!) to intensively develop your speaking and listening abilities, providing you with comprehensive language input.
In addition, every game is expertly facilitated by our experienced tutors. They provide real-time support and guidance, ensure activities are well-structured for optimal learning, and offer clear explanations and consolidation of any new vocabulary or concepts that emerge. It's learning through play, with expert support!
**Iโm not into games, is it still for me?**
Yes!! Think of it as immersive practice, not gaming. Even if youโre not a gamer, you will enjoy learning Mandarin this way! Our activities are designed to boost your vocabulary, pronunciation, and fluency in a natural and engaging way.
**Are there any discounts for Chinese lessons for members?**
Yes, you can use code MEETUP10 for your exclusive ยฃ10 discount on our [Chinese courses](https://china-unbound.co.uk/personal/) site-wide!

The Trauma Response Workshop Series: The Flight Response
**The Trauma Response Workshop Series: *Class Two: The Flight Response***
Trauma responses are involuntary physical, emotional, and cognitive reactions to intense, stressful, or life-threatening events, rooted in survival instincts. These mechanisms help traumatized people manage danger when they are subject to it but can become long-term, ingrained behaviors even when the individual has achieved safety.
People with Complex PTSD often experience automatic, intense, and, at times, inappropriate fight, flight, freeze, fawn, flop/fatigue, fine and flood/faint responses when triggered, as their nervous system perceives danger where none exists. In this 7 part series we will be exploring these trauma responses in depth and what we can do as trauma survivors when these activate and/or present themselves in daily life.
The second trauma response we will discuss is the FLIGHT response. The trauma reaction presents as a an intense, instinctive urge to escape, run away, or avoid a perceived threat or danger. In this course we will discuss:
\- what the flight response entails physically and psychologically
\- what makes one more prone to the flight response when triggered
\- behavioral signs of the flight response
\- when flight manifests as avoidance and procrastination
\- when the flight response becomes maladaptive
\- how to curb the fight response when triggered
\- common misconceptions about the flight response
This course will come with a companion Power Point that will be distributed post class.
