Climb & Chill 🧗♂️☕️
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 19:00, 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

🚿 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.

We will be meeting at the Hermann Debroux Metro at **14h**. (Exit straight ahead after leaving the platform--on the Loxam side).

There is the renovated Maison de Prieur at the exit of the forest where we could gather for a drink or a meal after our walk, depending on what you feel like.
Looking forward to an inward adventure? Come and join us on **Saturday, July 4, at 14h**

**A MESSAGE FOR NEWCOMERS:**
*In the three years of hosting this coffee group, I have met many people who struggle with anxieties when coming to an event for the first time. Sometimes, it took them more than one attempt before being able to join.*

*I would like to encourage everyone who struggles with this to contact me before. It would really be too bad if you can't join us, as it mostly gets better the second or third time you come.*

Mental Fitness Walk — coffee & conversation at Bois de la Cambre 🌳☕️👟
We spend so much of the week keeping up. With work, with people, with the version of ourselves we're supposed to be. Saturday morning can be different. 🌿
Come and join for an honest conversation and a mindful walk with people who also get it. No pressure to share anything you're not ready to share. You can talk as much or as little as you like; sometimes, just being outside in nature with good people is enough.
*This is part of a series of regular walks for the [Mental Fitness Collective](https://www.meetup.com/mental-fitness-collective/) — a simple, free morning to step outside, move at a gentle pace, and be around people who aren't performing either.*
**📍Meeting point:** Stella - Coffee Food Bakery (in front of the tram stop Legrand), where you can buy a drink of your choice (optional).
🗓️ **Agenda:** We'll take a relaxed walk through Bois de la Cambre and a full loop around the lake, about 4-5 km, at a pace where conversation feels comfortable. We'll finish at the roundabout at the end of Av. Louise.
**Small housekeeping rule:** What happens in the group stays in the group. Whatever is shared between participants during our time together stays between us. It is to make sure this feels like a safe place to be honest.
I'll be there to welcome everyone. Come as you are. 🌿
Free to join, RSVP to save your spot!
‼️Altough this is a free event, I would like to ask you to try to respect each other’s time: In case you won’t be able to make it or change your mind, please cancel your attendance by **8 PM, 3 July** the latest, so others might be able to take your place. Thank you!
I look forward to seeing you!
*The event is weather-dependent.*
*This walk will run every other Saturday. Each one is standalone, so come whenever it works for you. Join our group, [Mental Fitness Collective](https://www.meetup.com/mental-fitness-collective/) and get notified of our events.*

Lustin to Dinant (25km)
We will continue our footpath from last week, this time going south from Lustin, mostly on the GR 126. The route starts with a climb to a viewpoint over the Meuse, then winds through the rugged Meuse Valley, passing by the Abbaye de Leffe, and finally descending into Dinant with panoramic views of the Citadel, and a well-deserved stop for a drink or ice-cream, depending on the train schedule.
The number of participants is limited to 12, so please manage your registration responsibly: only sign up if you really intend to come and cancel as soon as you know you can’t (this also goes for people on the waiting list!).
We will try to keep close to an average moving speed of 5km/h. We will walk both on paved and unpaved roads. I’ve not tested this track beforehand, so it’s possible that there are some mistakes in the planning (i.e. it may become longer ;-).
●●You can find the gpx track here: [https://www.wikiloc.com/wikiloc/user.do?id=2756021](https://www.wikiloc.com/wikiloc/user.do?id=2756021)
●●Meeting point:
We meet at 9.10 in Brussels Schuman station at Platform 2. Our train (IC 2509 to Dinant) leaves at 09.23. and arrives to Lustin at 10.30.
●● Trains back to Brussels: direct trains from Dinant are every hour at XX.13.
●● Train ticket:
One way ticket to Lustin is 9.60€ or 5.80€ with train+. One way ticket from Dinant is 11.40€ or 6.80€ with train+.
Return ticket to Dinant should also be ok.
●● Specifics:
Distance: ± 25 km
Elevation gain: 670 m
Net walking time: ± 6 h
Weather forecast: sunny and warm.
In the unlikely case of too bad weather, I may cancel a hike, even few hours before the event. If this must happen, I will of course update the Meetup website and send out an email to those registered. So it is important to have access to either the Meetup website and/or your emails.
●● What to bring:
*Plenty of water + pack your own lunch/snacks
- Comfortable hiking shoes and clothes
*Sun and bug protection (Sunscreen, hat, tick repellent, etc)
- Raingear (just in case)
*Small money for drinks/ice-cream
●● Basic rules:
Please RSVP only if you really intend to come. And if your plans change, update your RSVP asap, even hours before the walk. This is basic courtesy towards others. Repeated late cancellations are not well considered (at all). No-shows are even worse.
Do not show up for a hike unless you are on the “going” list.
●● Acknowledgement of member responsibility and release of liability:
You are responsible for yourself and should be fit enough if you want to take part. As the participation in the events is strictly voluntary and you freely choose to join, it is the responsibility of individuals participating to ensure that they are fit enough and have adequate coverage to protect themselves. By signing up for this event, you agree to release the organisers from any responsibility and liability.

### **🌱 Description**
Rejoignez-nous pour la septième étape de notre grand cycle « Les 12 Balades Qigong – Promenade Verte de Bruxelles ».
Chaque mois, nous parcourons un tronçon de la Promenade Verte en mêlant marche douce et pratique de Qigong en pleine nature.
Au fil du parcours, nous ferons des pauses pour pratiquer des mouvements simples de Qigong, accessibles à tous, afin de :
* harmoniser la respiration,
* libérer les tensions accumulées,
* s’ancrer profondément dans la nature environnante.
***
### **🎒 Infos pratiques**
* Activité ouverte à tous niveaux, aucune expérience en Qigong requise.
* Vêtements confortables et adaptés à la météo.
* Chaussures de marche conseillées (terrain parfois TREShumide).
* Apporter une gourde d’eau.
***
### **🔗 Réservations**
📲 Inscription obligatoire via Meetup pour garantir une bonne organisation.
Nombre de places limitées afin de garder un cadre convivial et respectueux.
***
We begin with a gentle walk to reach a calm practice spot.
During the session, you’ll be introduced to Qigong — a simple and effective practice rooted in traditional Chinese movement. It combines slow movements, breathing, and attention to help release tension, improve mobility, and calm the nervous system.
The exercises are easy to follow, even if it’s your first time.
The focus is not on performance, but on sensation: moving with awareness, breathing more freely, and allowing the body to reset.
Depending on the session, we may explore sequences like **Ba Duan Jin (Eight Brocades)**, each with its own focus on circulation, joints, and overall energy.
We close with a quiet return walk, giving the body time to integrate — often leaving with a clearer mind and a lighter, more grounded feeling.
Brunch and Connect: Make New Friends

Into the Woods... (~15k)
Our journey takes us once more under the towering beech cathedral of the Forêt de Soignes. We’ll begin our transition from city to nature at the threshold where Brussels meets the wild, gathering right by Woodpecker (Le Kiosque) in the heart of Bois de la Cambre.
After meeting near the kiosk, we’ll head past the ponds and disappear into the deep greens and dappled light of the ancient woodland.

Post-Run Coffee: An optional gathering at Woodpecker for well-deserved coffee and refreshments.
🎒 Important Logistics

🇧🇪🇪🇸🇮🇹 Language Picnic & Games 🌎🌳🧺🏸 🎲 (TBC🌤️)
What's up Friends! 👋
If the weather gods feel generous 🌤️, we’re going full park mode: picnic 🧺🌳, games, laughs… and a touch of chaos ✨
‼️If not - we'll switch to the usual indoor format at Le Pantin or Café Leopold PDN.
📍Where
Park Cinquantenaire, Tour de Tournai 🏰 (that little castle-looking thingy in the park). Look it up on Google maps! We'll also post some pics of the exact spot. Can’t find us? 🤷♀️ Just ping me here.
💡 The Idea
Chill picnic with multiple language and game groups: Spanish, French - for sure, Dutch, Italian - if there is interest, other languages - TBD. Join a group and speak ONLY that language! Full immersion, baby! 🔥
Bring your own drinks 🧃, snacks 🥪🍓, blanket, and games 🎲🏸 (sharing always appreciated 😋).
We’ll break into small groups depending on the vibe: languages, games, other chats, sports.
⏱️ Timing
We kick off at 14:00 under the thickest shade we find. Stay as long as you like. Some of us would likely stay until the sun sets.
Joining later? Just drop a message in the chat in case we decide to move 😊.
🎲🏸 Games
All games are welcome in the park - boards, cards, balls, random stuff! I’ll have a few with me, but feel free to add your own favorites too.
🚦On the waitlist but really want to join? Or got any questions? Just DM me.
📢 Extra info might drop in the group chat or via DM 💬. Check your messages 👀 the day before so you don't miss anything critical 🙄.
🐈⬛ The Friends Code:
👉 Games we play = group decision
👉 Linguistic chats = full immersion in one language. No one cares about mistakes. Just speak!
👉 Smaller groups = cozier vibes
👉 Got a favorite game? Suggest it or show up with it
👉 Can't make it? Cancel on time so someone on the waitlist can grab your spot
👉 If you’re on the waitlist, showing up is at your own risk 😄
See you there, folks 😉
