One-day Improv Theatre Workshop in English in Budapest
One-day Improv Theatre Workshop in English in Budapest
One-day improv theatre workshop in English held in Budapest instructed by Abel Farkas. No acting experience is required. The event is organised by Flow Theatre. The workshop is from 9:45-17:00 (with a lunchbreak in the middle) Early Bird discount until the 31st of March. Registration is required to participate, and the class is limited to 14 participants. Please register using the link below: https://shop.flowszinhaz.hu/one-day-improv-theatre-workshop-with-abel-3/ Everybody has the ability to improvise. We do it in our everyday life. In theatre, others are watching us, and we feel we are required to perform well. This creates frustration within us and makes it difficult to act naturally. In improv, another obstacle is that we have no idea what our partner(s) will do and how we can create the connection between us. This uncertainty creates further frustration. During the workshops, we practice principles and methods which help us overcome and master these problems. The application of these methods go beyond theatre and could be useful in many areas of life, such as relationships, teamwork and communication. Instructor: Ábel Farkas, a reserach mathematician, magician and improv instructor. He has spent more than 10 years practicing improv theatre and studied it on three continents in English and Hungarian. Venue: Jurányi Produkciós Közösségi Inkubátorház, building A, at the end of the corridor on the 3rd floor (3. szint), the door on the left; the classroom of the Central European Irish Dance Academy (in Hungarian: Közép-Európai Ír Tánc Akadémia). ! Street shoes are not allowed in the rehearsal room. Instead, you may bring indoor shoes, slippers, socks or be barefoot. Comfortable clothes are recommended. Schedule: 9:45-13:00 workshop 13:00-13:50 lunch break 13:50-17:00 workshop After the workshop, we usually sit in the bar of Juranyi for a few drinks. All are very welcome! Price: Early Bird 16 500 HUF/person (if registered by 21st January) Normal 19 800 HUF/person The event is intended for adults, so we are only accepting registrations from adults. In cases of tardiness or behavior that hinders or disrupts group work, participation may be denied. The decision is at the trainer's discretion. In such situations, we are unable to refund the participation fee. After registration, the participation fee is non-refundable. Even if a participant is unable to attend, we are unable to issue a refund. In such cases, participation can be transferred to another person.
Reunión de juntaletras.
Reunión de juntaletras.
El objetivo de este encuentro es romper el hielo, hablar de las historias que nos gusta escribir, de por qué escribimos, de los libros que nos gusta leer, de qué dificultades encontramos al enfrentarnos al folio en blanco y de qué esperamos del grupo. En definitiva, se trata de conocernos como personas para entendernos como escritores. No importa si has escrito diez novelas, cuatro cuentos o el precioso título de un poema sin versos. Aquí todo aspirante a juntaletras es bienvenido.
Egynapos Impró Színházi Workshop Ábellel
Egynapos Impró Színházi Workshop Ábellel
Egynapos impró színházi workshop Farkas Ábel vezetesével, a Flow Színház szervezésében. Semmilyen előképzettség vagy színházi ismeret nem szükséges. A workshop 9:45-től, 17:00-ig tart (közepén ebédszünettel). Early bird jelentkezés Március 31-ig. A részvétel regisztrációhoz kötött. A workshop maximum kapacitása 14 fő. Jelentkezés az alábbi linken: https://shop.flowszinhaz.hu/egynapos-impro-szinhazi-workshop-3/ Mindenkiben megvan a képesség az improvizálásra, hiszen minden nap ezt tesszük. A színjátszásban egy lényeges nehezítő körülmény, hogy mások néznek minket, és úgy érezzük, elvárják, hogy alakítsunk valamit. Ez sok feszültséget szül bennünk, és megnehezíti, hogy természetesen viselkedjünk. Az impróban egy másik jelentős nehézség, hogy fogalmunk sincs, mit fog a társunk (társaink) csinálni, és ahhoz hogy kapcsolódjunk. Ez a bizonytalanség további frusztrációt kelt. A tréning során olyan irányelveket, technikákat gyakorlunk, melyek segítenek, hogy a fent említett nehézségeken úrrá legyünk. Ezen módszerek alkalmazása túlmutat a színjátszáson, és az élet más területein is hasznos, mint például a társas együttélés, csapatmunka és kommunikáció. Tréner: Farkas Ábel matematikus, bűvész és impró tréner. Több mint 10 éve foglalkozik impró szinhazzal, három kontinensen tanulta és gyakorolta angol és magyar nyelven. A Flow Szinház vezetője. Helyszín: Jurányi Produkciós Közösségi Inkubátorház, A epület 3. emelet (3. szint) folyosó végén balra, Közép-Európai Ír Tánc Akadémia terme ! A próbaterembe utcai cipővel nem szabad belépni, helyette váltócipőben, papucsban, zokniban vagy mezítláb lehet. Ezenkívül kényelmes ruha javasolt. Időbeosztás: 9:45-13:00 Tréning 13:00-13:50 Ebédszünet 13:50-17:00 Tréning A workshop után be szoktunk ülni közösen a Jurányi bárjába A workshop díja: Early bird 16 500 Forint/fő (Március 31-ig regisztrálva) Normál 19 800 Forint/fő Az eseményt felnőttek számára tervezzük, ezért csak felnőttek jelentkezését várjuk. Késés és a csoportmunkát hátráltató vagy zavaró viselkedés esetén a részvételt megtagadhatjuk. Ennek elbírálása a tréner szabad belátására van bízva. Ilyen helyzetben részvételi díjat nem áll módunkban visszatéríteni. Regisztráció után a részvételi díj nem visszatéríthető. Ha a résztvevő nem tud részt venni, a részvételi díjat nem áll módunkban visszatéríteni. Ilyen esetben a részvétel átruházható más személyre.
Workshop #1 - Nietzche's Beyond Good & Evil Part I
Workshop #1 - Nietzche's Beyond Good & Evil Part I
*“we add the feelings of delight of successful executive instruments, the useful 'under-wills' or under-souls—indeed, our body is but a social structure composed of many souls—to our feelings of delight as commander”* **Friedrich Nietzsche - Beyond Good and Evil.** **(In english!)** This session is designed as a beginner's workshop, even if you haven't read or don't know Nietzsche's work. And if you do but would like to deepen and share your knowledge, you are also welcomed. We will focus on a few clusters from just the first two chapters of *Beyond Good and Evil*. Reading, clarifying, and discussing his aphorisms, covering 5 main topics. We split into separated groups and there will be practical work. The focus will be on some of Nietzsche’s most provocative ideas. From the rejection of simple opposites, to the first appearance of the will to power. The goal is to understand what Nietzsche is really attacking, where his insights are still up to date, and if and where he may be overstretching. This time a notebook and pen is recommended. **Introduction of guests (10 minutes)** We start with a short introduction of the guests. Those who are familiar with Nietzsche will seat next to those who aren't in a more or less homogeneous distribution. **The topics to discuss (1 hour and 45 minutes)** 1. **Truth, contraries, and the prejudice of philosophers** Excerpts: **1–4**, **24**, **31**. 2. **The unity of the self: ego, will, commonwealth, masks** Excerpts: **12**, **16–17**, **19**, **26–27**, **40**. 3. **Freedom, free will, determinism, and the free spirit** Excerpts: **21–22**, **29**, **34**, **41–44**. 4. **Psychology against philosophy: resentment, indignation, morality as symptom** Excerpts: **5–6**, **23**, **30**, **32–33**, **38–39**. 5. **Will to power as the deep explanatory wager** Excerpts: **13**, **19**, **22–23**, **36**. **RSVP**: As this is a different format than usual I will let a maximum of 16 people. Please confirm your attendance by transferring: • 3,000 HUF — Workshop entry (please support the venue buying any drink) • 6,000 HUF — Entry + veggie bruschetta • 8,000 HUF — Entry + veggie bruschetta + alcohol-free red wine Please, sign up here: [https://forms.gle/pEjhTLLkDGBWJS1N7](https://forms.gle/pEjhTLLkDGBWJS1N7?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwb1FaR1hyTGJFSXZYeDVlaHNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR6EZUT9iwDH3EokkwJFynJFBDWeH8upis9o_TKhzQuFShYpWUqOEJ2jcCCR0w_aem_7p274cXA4ZIGQYNOMhZH4g) And make the payment here: [https://revolut.me/marcoshht/pocket/ZtuHAUE1NO](https://revolut.me/marcoshht/pocket/ZtuHAUE1NO?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwb1FaR1hyTGJFSXZYeDVlaHNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR664E5SHLpYlZ7cIdEPCPULV1XvR0c8sZKgwfe67wqm_TfSgubMoAVcj-inKw_aem_FAi0Woh7heWIUccOlmRH9A)

The Story So Far: A WiA Reflection Circle
The Story So Far: A WiA Reflection Circle
A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional

Expect to be challenged, affirmed, and genuinely seen - sometimes all in the same breath. **Annette Santiago Reyes** Annette has a rare talent: she makes the way you communicate feel like a discovery, not a critique. A connection catalyst and culture strategist, she helps people understand why they show up the way they do, and how to bridge the gap between intention and impact.

She develops the kind of leaders people actually want to follow. **Lillian Morales-Laster** SVP Human Resources Director at United Midwest Savings Bank and Executive Director of the Empowering Latinas Leadership Academy (ELLA). Lillian has spent her career combining her passion for equity and inclusion with her experience in human resources to lead teams and organizations in the development of supportive work environments.

A Columbus Business First Community Champion and Distinguished Hispanic Ohioan, her commitment to empowering others shows up everywhere she goes. **Rachyl Kershaw** Founder of Greater Columbus Consulting and the architect behind the Confidence Lab Annual Summit, Rachyl has a gift for cutting through the noise, helping high-achievers stop performing success and start living it. She asks the questions most people are afraid to, creates space for honest reckoning, and somehow makes the hard work feel energizing. If you’ve ever wondered why doing everything right still feels like something’s missing, you’re in exactly the right room. #### **Why Confidence Lab?** Confidence is the foundation for success in every area of life.
