I started this group to share experiences in TaiChi and QiGong and to help people get healthier and more self aware. The group is to share awareness of the body and spirit and if you like gentle exercise and good friends you should come along. We explore the physical and real interaction of the mind, spiritual body and physical body through the medium of an authentic health and wellness system which is thousands of years old. Come and join us as we explore the realm of human energy...

This group is open to everyone. For people who are new to Leeds or those that want to enhance their social lives. We intend to schedule a wide variety of events all year round including evening and daytime socialising, visits to the theatre, dining out, concerts, day trips to other cities, exhibitions, group holidays, casual get-togethers, karting, bowling, quasar, walks, running away from/shooting zombies, murder mystery evenings and much more. Joining a new social group can be daunting, but we …

The idea is simple, go out as a group and take photos. Any age, any level of experience, any kind of camera, any media (digital, film). West Yorkshire has a wealth of cities, villages and countryside, and a little further away in the summer months, even the seaside. Its all a bit loose at the moment but things will firm up over the winter. The first meeting (as part of the Leeds Live Music and Art Lovers group) was a success despite the weather and I hope we can build on that. The idea is to M …

This a social network for people who suffer from depression and anxiety, and want to make connections with others who “know what it’s like”. We arrange some on-topic support group events, as well as many random get-togethers. The group is private (i.e. no one can see who the members are) and will always remain so. It’s also not a public service, as I fund the group. If I was asked to describe the group ethos, I'd say: nothing is expected of our members, and, the belief that people should be in a …

Sadly, the life drawing sessions are currently in abeyance awaiting a new venue. Once one is arranged, hopefully early 2013, I will update the meetup page. Any query, please feel free to email me.

What is Jelly? http://workatjelly.com/ Jelly is a casual working event. It's taken place in over a hundred cities where people have come together (in a person's home, a coffee shop, or an office) to work for the day. We provide chairs and sofas, wireless internet, and interesting people to talk to, collaborate with, and bounce ideas off of. You bring a laptop (or whatever you need to get your work done) and a friendly disposition. Watch this video about Jelly, or read about it in Wired. What's …

I had great success with these photowalks in the States. I really enjoyed getting like-minded people together & seeing how va …

I believe that Jiu-Jitsu is like a chess. A chess game where your limbs are the pieces. And as such the very best way to improve is to face a superior opponent. The premise is simple. Open mats. When you force a submission you go back & explain how you got the upperhand & what they could have done to defend & counter against it. Then you go back, implement the counter & continue. partners change every three submissions. Sessions will be held on the last Sunday of the month.

What will the future be like? Why do bald dogs have bad teeth? Can the economy grow forever? What is a good life? What does sustainability mean? Tell me, who is Ptolemy? What's 'the alternative'?  How many bankers does it take to change a lightbulb? Can vegetables be exciting?  If you're interested in a little bit of everythinque, please join us.

Purpose: To encourage people to delve into their creative side, to help people discover the difference creativity can bring to their lives, to inspire each other, to help people develop their creative gifts and talents, and to meet like minded people. It is time to really connect with our creative side. Be it - writing, music, photography or anything else. I believe creativity is key in these changing times.

I am an artist and for ages have been looking to find a group focussed on conceptual art, but can't find anything so thought i would set up one myself. This group is for anyone with an interest in art or anything. You don't have to be Tracey Emin or Benjamin Buchloh, just passionate and into the alternative. I am also interested in starting collaborative projects and organizing some events, so hopefully these meet ups will set the ball rolling.

Hi there! This is a group for older singles, specifically with either no children or older children (let's say all are over the age of 13 or 14)! There are many singles groups, but this is to specifically cater for those that have lots of free time on their hands, who want to meet someone special in a similar position.

This group is devoted to the reading of one book: Thus Spoke Zarathustra As a group, i would like us to read the first half of the book, discuss it, then go on to read the second half and discuss that. I will be reading the Cambridge edition, translated by Adrian Del Caro, as i like the style; but the Kaufmann and Hollingdale translations are also good (it might be helpful if the group reads the same translation, but it's not essential). I would also definitely recommend finding a readers guide.
