Cellist Han Bin Yoon has captivated audiences internationally with his emotional performances and rich tone, praised by La Libre Belgique for his “superb resonances, deployed with elegance and a zest of sentimentality.” Based in Belgium, Han Bin is the Artistic Director of the Belgium Cello Society, where his passion for programming is evidenced through the society’s diverse activities. A dedicated and inspirational educator, Han Bin is currently a professor of cello and chamber music at the Royal Conservatory of Mons (ARTS²). His artistic vision for the Belgium Cello Society Masterclasses and his leadership position as the Jury Chairperson of the Buchet International Cello Competition constantly attract top cellists from around the world to his activities. Be part of this conversation and let’s chat about how music plays a part of your life & the world around us. Free to attend - but you need to register your place! Inspiration, tea and a glass of wine are offered to you ❤️.

**Concert in Jazz Station starting at 20:30.** I will be there around 20:00, see you at the bar. **Please buy your ticket here: https://shop.utick.net/?module=QUANTITY&q=F3FD2437-00AB-B54E-FC1A-38749FFC62AE&pos=JAZZSTATION** **Sullivan Fortner**, the acclaimed pianist-composer, has won the **GRAMMY® Award** for **‘Best Jazz Instrumental Album’** for ***Southern Nights*** at the **68th GRAMMY® Awards** on **February 1, 2026**.

We do cycles of 4-6 weeks, with a progressive intensity, and the last session is lighter. Program: 15’ warm up **To be defined** Cool down to get back to the starting point… or more S=All out sprint RF = Run fast, at MAS (Maximum aerobic speed) CF = Run comfortably fast (1h threshold) J = Jog, recuperation Notes: It should take about one hour in total, as the cool down will end when we reach back to the meeting point. It's NOT required to have an activity tracker or smart watch to be able to follow the program, as I'll be giving signals with a whistle. For the "run" part, you can follow your own pace and we'll be regrouping in the "jog" part. Intervals training is not advised for total beginners. To have an idea, the average pace at the warm up is around 5'45"/km-6'/km so this pace should feel very comfortable ***Acknowledgement of member responsibility and release of liability.*** By signing up for this event, you agree to release the organizers from any responsibility and liability in all claims.

The moon will be close to full. Weather forecast is good, sky should be clear, sunset at 18:22, moonrise at 14:33. We start walking at 19:00, till 22:00, about 12 km. **Getting there:** This hike is a loop. Start is easy to reach by tram 44. There is as well a parking if you come by car. For information, you can find the track here : https://www.komoot.com/tour/1478925933?share_token=agkQs0GGghs3iE5CEnvE0aV7QjcK8qRYwCkjnbV1omSj2sQ1Yo&ref=wtd **Meeting point** is Saturday 28/2 at 19:00. We start walking at 19:15. Be sure to eat before the hike or to bring some food that you can eat during the hike. Please pack at least 1.0 L of water, along with some snacks to keep our energy up, and wear good walking shoes. We will walk on unpaved and paved roads through parc, woods and countryside. We will walk at a medium pace, 5 km/h on average while walking. Please bring water and some snacks. The purpose is to enjoy full moon light as much as possible and the sky should be mostly clear. Neverthless you must foresee **a lamp** as some part may be dark due to trees/leaves/clouds and moonlight can be insufficient in the middle of the forest. For your convenience and safety, ensure your GSM battery is fully charged. It’s also a good idea to bring an extra fully charged battery pack with you, just in case. Notice : by local rules, in Sonian Forest and in the parc, dogs should be kept on a leash. **Weather** Check the weather forecast upfront and dress accordingly. The weather forecast seems ok : no rain and no (or very little 🤞) clouds Temperature will drop **from 10°C (and sunny) to 7°C (and no sun!).** Please dress accordingly, layering up to stay warm yet comfortable throughout the hike. www.meteo.be - www.buienradar.be \- Sunset at 18:22 \- Moonrise at 14:33 Consider that it is really dark one hour after sunset so around 19:20 **WhatsApp "share live location"** When participating in our hikes, you should understand how to use the WhatsApp function "share live location". If you don't know what I am talking about, google for it and practice at home. WhatsApp "share live location" is very handy in case you remain behind, arrive late or just get lost. **A reminder on the event etiquette (and on good manners in general)** Register only if you are reasonably motivated to participate. As a matter of courtesy towards the people on the waiting list, if you are unable to come, cancel as soon as possible. **Any questions?** Post a comment or send me a message. If you don't find us or if you are late call me at **0485/54 34 15 (Vincent)**, I will then share live location on WhatsApp. **Acknowledgement of member responsibility and release of liability** You should be fit enough if you want to take part, and you are responsible for yourself and your safety. Know your limits and choose to participate or not accordingly. The organizers in this group are all volunteers. By signing up for this event, you agree to release the organizers/hosts from any responsibility/liability. If you don’t agree with these terms, do not join.

What's up Friends! 👋 
Ready for some bouldering fun? Boulder-what? 🤔 It’s climbing (FR: escalade, le bloc) up to 4.5m high without ropes—and in my case, without much hope! 😂✨ It’s a super fun indoor activity, but be warned: it does require a certain level of physical fitness and/or skill. Most importantly, though, it requires awesome company—which we’ve got! 😎
 The Idea: 📍 Meeting Point: For those arriving at 17:00, we’ll meet at the cafeteria (next to the billiards table). Feel free to start earlier or later—just drop me a message or write in the group chat so we can meet up. 💪 Stay & climb as long as you want - venue closes at midnight! 🥤 Recharge: If you’ve had enough climbing for the day (we usually do this after 2 hours of climbing), we may head back to the cafeteria (or to the rooftop if it's sunny🌤️) for snacks, drinks & games. Cafeteria closes at 22:00. Where: 📍Arkose: (Brussels Canal) Rue Willy de Bruyn Straat 52, 1000 Bruxelles, Belgique 🔗 https://arkose.com/

Fees: 🤑Entry fee without shoes: - 18 eur (first-timers 10€ with online promo activated) - reduced rates: students, minors, job seekers, firefighters, military (proof required) 👟 Shoe Rental: 5€ (if you don’t have your own) 🎫 10-session pass: 150€
 Good to Know: ✍️ First-timers need to create an account (takes 5min) - do it in advance and pay online to pay less and avoid wasting time onsite 💦 Hydration is key! Bring a water bottle. 🔐 Lockers available, but bring your own padlock. 🚿 Changing rooms & showers on-site. 👕 Wear comfy sports clothes—it gets intense! 🧴 Only liquid magnesium is allowed (for grip) - in reality most people use powder🤫 👟 Thinking of going regularly? Bouldering shoes are a great investment! (Decathlon: ~45-65€ per pair.)

⚠️ Safety First! Bouldering is fun, but safety comes first! Stay alert, know your limits, and don’t take unnecessary risks. Enjoy responsibly! 💪 
📢 Further details may be shared via the group chat or via DM 💬. Make sure to check your messages 👀 at least on the day before the event to avoid missing critical 🙄 announcements. 🐈‍⬛ The Friends Code:
👉Respect and positive vibes, if not 💥🥊
👉Can’t make it? Cancel or drop a message in the chat - helps running things smoothly! 👉 Don't show up if you are on the waiting list or show up at your own risk. 
See you at the walls folks😉

Welcome to our weekly event in the upstairs room of The Sister Café, rue Chair et Pain 3, one block from the Grand Place. Please get there early enough to order your drink at the bar first. Thank you! After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations. Past questions have been wide and not confined to academic philosophy: What is a genuine friend? Is social media turning us into emotional zombies? Do we lose some of the experience of things by defining them? Are we driven by sex? Is loneliness a personal failure? Is morality relative? **Crucially, be kind and respectful and generous** in your disagreements; remember how much you personally enjoy someone else proving you wrong before celebrating your cutting counterexamples.

We will show a variety of methods for building agents that run in Microsoft Foundry. This covers the different types of agents: Prompt, Multi, and Hosted, as well as the development lifecycle using evals and traces.
