English Conversation (Bohnice, Praha 8)
English Conversation (Bohnice, Praha 8)
Hi all! My name is Cara, and I am a native English speaker from America living in Prague. This a meet up for t**hose learning English as a second language** and want the **opportunity to practice**. It will be a fun and relaxed setting where we will play games to **promote English conversations** or have some kind of activity. This club will meet **every other (two Mondays each month) Monday evening.** The goal is for each person to walk away having learned new English words and have more confidence when speaking in English. Please, bring some money if you want to purchase a coffee from Evento. **This event is sponsored by a church.** The church that sponsors this English meet up is **Církev bratrská, Bohnice** [https://www.cbbohnice.cz](https://www.cbbohnice.cz/) . We want to live lives that are reflective of Jesus. Like Jesus we want to help others in meeting a practical need, in this case that would be speaking in English. At the end of the English club, we will extend an invite to anyone who is interested in exploring faith, wants to know more about Jesus, or wants to meet up to read from the Bible. However, we will never trick you into attending and will always be honest about the content of our meetings. *You do not have to attend religious events to be a part of English Club.*
Impact Play — Bouldering Experience
Impact Play — Bouldering Experience
​Impact Play is a new format within the Impact Nights community. Same ambitious people. Different setting. For this first edition, we gather for an evening of bouldering with founders, operators, and builders who value challenge, clarity, and real connection. Bouldering is about reading the route, testing ideas, adjusting quickly, and trying again. It mirrors how we build companies: focused, iterative, resilient. ​Our intention is to host Impact Play every third Monday of the month. A recurring moment to recharge, reset, and reconnect. Sustainable impact requires sustainable founders. Physical strength supports mental clarity. Movement sharpens focus. Community builds resilience. **​This session is for those who:** ​▪ Value resilience over ego ▪ Learn by doing ▪ Prefer meaningful conversations over small talk ▪ Believe energy is a strategic advantage ​We begin with a short welcome and warm-up, climb in small groups, and close with informal networking. Experience level does not matter. Curiosity and effort do. ​Impact Play is about maintaining the stamina required to build what truly matters. **Practical information** **▪ Entrance to the climbing gym:** 300 CZK ▪ Multisport card accepted, with extra payment after 60 minutes **▪ Climbing shoes rental:** 70 CZK **▪ Magnesium:** 20 CZK ▪ Bring sport clothes and a bottle of water

Gentle Vinyasa + Sound Healing with Andrea
Gentle Vinyasa + Sound Healing with Andrea
Gentle Vinyasa is a slow, mindful yoga practice that connects breath and movement in a steady rhythm. The class focuses on soft flow sequences designed to release tension, improve mobility, and support nervous system balance. The pace allows participants to move with awareness rather than intensity. The session concludes with sound healing using crystal bowls. The sound supports integration and relaxation, allowing the body to settle after movement. This practice is suitable for all levels and does not require previous yoga experience. The class includes guided movement and a closing relaxation with sound. Facilitated by Andreea Surdu, yoga teacher who guides classes with clarity and calm presence. Her approach emphasizes breath, alignment, and accessible movement for everyday bodies. Mondays, 18.00-19.00, small classes, 200 CZK register through https://vev.co/atma-community-space-praha
Czech Co-Learning Session 🇨🇿
Czech Co-Learning Session 🇨🇿
Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone. **This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.** This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided. Everyone comes with their own resources and studies independently, in a shared environment. 🧠 **How it works** • We all bring our own material: • textbooks • homework from a Czech course • Duolingo or other apps • reading practice • vocabulary review, etc. • We mainly work individually • We are free to: • ask questions • help each other • share tips and resources • No teacher, no formal structure, no pressure 👥 **Who is it for?** • Czech learners of all levels • Non-Czech speakers (expats, internationals) • Czech native speakers are welcome if they want to help, but this is not a language exchange ⏱ **Practical info** • Location: Cafedu 12, Škrétova 490, 120 00 Praha 2 (Metro A and C, Muzeum station) • Duration: 2 hours, or less or more, as you want • Day & time: Monday, 18:00 • Group size: small group for now • Free event — please support the café by ordering a drink ☕ If you’re learning Czech and lack motivation when studying alone, come join us — let’s find it together 🙂

🚀 Research Tuesday is Back: International User Research
🚀 Research Tuesday is Back: International User Research
**The wait is over!** After a long hiatus, we are reviving our favorite morning tradition. Research Tuesday is returning as a monthly ritual for the UX community to meet, share, and discuss the "no-filter" reality of our craft. We’ve missed the energy of in-person discussions, and we’re thrilled to start this new chapter with you. **💡 The Vibe: No Cameras, Just Conversations** If you’re new here, this is our secret sauce: **We never record or stream our meetups.** We believe the best insights come from a safe space where speakers and participants can be brutally honest about what worked - and what didn't. **🌍 This Month: International Research** Conducting research across different cultures, languages, and time zones brings a unique set of challenges. How do we adapt our methods for global markets? What are the biggest cultural pitfalls? Our speakers will "kick off" the topic with informal presentations, followed by a deep-dive discussion. **Language note:** Since the topic is international and our speakers are global, this specific meetup will be held in **English**. **👋 Our Speakers:** **Martina Benešová** Martina is a UX Researcher at Livesport with over 15 years of experience across the research world. Her career includes working for GfK, Vodafone and Unilever, where she moved between consumer insights, brand management and market research roles. She studied Sociology at Oxford Brookes University and has worked across multiple countries and markets throughout her career. At Research Tuesday, she'll be talking about the challenges and realities of running research internationally. **Carolina Lourenço Rosa** Carolina is a Brazilian UX Researcher based in Portugal. With a background in Journalism and Film, she spent over a decade working as a content producer and researcher in media companies, NGOs, and film productions before transitioning to UX in 2022. Today, she works at Livesport conducting qualitative interviews with Brazilian and Portuguese users while coordinating a network of qualitative researchers across Italy, Nigeria, the UK, Colombia, and South Korea. At Research Tuesday, she’ll share her experiences and learnings from conducting and managing research across different markets. **🕒 Agenda:** * **08:30 AM** – Doors open & Early networking (coffee & chats) * **9:00 AM** – Kick-off Talks: International Research * **10:00 AM** – Open Discussion * **11:00 PM** – Closing & Final Networking * **🧸 Babysitting On-Demand:** Research Tuesday has always been about making professional growth accessible. We especially want to support parents of small children, helping them stay connected with the industry and socialize without the usual barriers. * **Interested in babysitting?** We are happy to arrange it on-site, but we need to know if there is interest. * **Action:** Please let us know in the **comments section** no later than Monday noon if you would like to use this service and for how many children. We will decide whether to provide the service based on your feedback. * **🎟️ Important Details:** * **Tickets:** The event is **free**, but space is strictly limited to **35 seats** to keep the discussion intimate. * **Reservation:** Please book your spot early. If your plans change, please release your spot for others. **We can’t wait to see the old faces and welcome the new ones!** Ivana, Lucie, Martin

Pyvo Prague #178: You’ve Heard of the OWASP Top 10 — Now Meet the Other 90%
Pyvo Prague #178: You’ve Heard of the OWASP Top 10 — Now Meet the Other 90%
**Talks:** *You’ve Heard of the OWASP Top 10 — Now Meet the Other 90%* *by* *Vojtech Snajdr* Most developers know OWASP for the famous Top 10 list, but that’s only a small part of what the organization actually does. OWASP is a huge ecosystem of tools, resources, standards, and experimental projects aimed at helping developers build more secure software. In this talk, we’ll take a tour beyond the Top 10 and explore some of the interesting, practical, and sometimes surprising things OWASP has created, with a focus on ideas and tools you can apply in real projects right away. **Schedule** **18:30** – Doors open **19:00** – Talk “*You’ve Heard of the OWASP top 10 — Now Meet the Other 90%*” 19:45 – Lightning talks: add yours to [https://bit.ly/prpylight](https://bit.ly/prpylight) after 20:00 – Networking **Good to know** * You don’t have to register for this meetup – the actual attendance is much bigger (40–70 Pythonistas) than indicated in the “Going” list here. * **Cash only payments – club doesn’t accept cards.** * Talks at Pyvo are mostly in Czech but it there’s somebody who doesn’t understand Czech talks are switched to English if the speaker is able to do so. * Besides both soft drinks and beer it's possible to eat at the club. Choice is variable and consists of 4 to 7 options ranging from toast, sausages and soup to fried cheese in a bun, goulash or schnitzel. * Club closes at midnight.
Life Crafting: How to Design a Meaningful Life in a Distracted World
Life Crafting: How to Design a Meaningful Life in a Distracted World
**Life Crafting** refers to the intentional modification of one’s environment, behaviour, and patterns of thinking to better satisfy core psychological needs and align daily life with one's dearest values. To some extent, we all engage in life crafting informally. But structured reflection can dramatically increase clarity and follow-through. In this event, we will explore both: * How do we already apply life crafting in our personal lives? * How can we apply it more systematically? **Suggested Reading (Optional)** To enrich the conversation, participants may wish to read these two short blog posts before the event: • [Life Crafting: Proactive Strategies for Enhancing Well-Being](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/happybytes/202311/life-crafting-proactive-strategies-for-enhancing-well-being) • [Life Crafting: A Novel Intervention to Increase Meaning in Life](https://incomparable.info/life-crafting-a-novel-intervention-to-increase-meaning-in-life/) **Structure of the Event** • Arrival & short introductions • Brief presentation (definition of life crafting, research findings and structure of the intervention) • Group dialogue • Practical mini-exercise (values clarification) • Open discussion: benefits, challenges, scepticism, application **“Incomparable Dialogues” is a small, discussion-based group exploring how to live intentionally in an age of distraction, complex social dynamics, and ever-growing professional demands.**
