Well, let’s just dip our toe shoes into the water, here, and see if there’s any balletomania afoot, for a new meetup now. Amid the epoch of “Black Swan" at the movies, and with the Giants having won the World Series (yes, whipping through 32 fouetté turns is almost as hard as hitting a Lincecum fastball), and now the first book ever published about the entire history of ballet (“Apollo’s Angels,” by Jennifer Homans), and, ta-dah, most important of all, with the world-class San Francisco Ballet …

This is a group for musicians, beginning through experienced, to come together to practice their music. For those beginning musicians who just need a little moral support as they bow through technique drills or wind/string instrumentalists who are working on some cool riff, scales or arpeggios, etude studies, audition pieces,... Or for those who want someone to play a duet together... Or maybe a little company every now and then on their regular sound proof room practice sessions. Classical, sym …

This is a group of those interested in the Latin language - i.e. the Language spoken in the Roman empire and the great poets Cicero, Virgil, Ovid and Lucretius. The idea is to meet, read in Latin and experience this great language.

There are few periods in film history that were more influential and more fun that the Italian Spaghetti Westerns made between 1964 and the mid 1970s. You will find more action or gun play anywhere. Not even a Shakespearian tragedy could pile up bodies like the Italians would. From Sergio Leone to Sergio Corbucci to Enzo Barboni; from Clint Eastwood to Lee Van Cleef to Klaus Kinski and hundreds of Italian unknown actors; these movies are endless fun. Once a month Gun Slingers get together to sha …

This is a 2-pronged activity group for the more mature (ahem! 45+ members) that I want to create, and the two planned activities may or may not intersect: (1) a monthly dining group that will try out various restaurants in our very diverse Bay Area (taking a cue from restaurants featured on CHECK PLEASE, BAY AREA); and (2) a movie/video group that can go to quality films on (a) a matinee basis and (b) eventually screen videos at home of past classics mingled with a potluck dinner. Geographically …

During our meetups you will learn engaging art lessons for your children. Learn it through us, and then teach it at home with your child. This is great way to bond with your child and have them learn directly from their most loved person in the world! I have been teaching art to childenn for nearly 5 years and have created lesson plans that are in depth and not too crafty. This way the lessons still teach classical art techniques. I often place art history into the lessons in order to teach cult …

If you're interested in meeting up occasionally to see a film, mostly independent and sometimes not, and also meet some cool people, then this is the meetup for you. We usually stick to theaters around Palo Alto, Mountain View, and Redwood City. We also meet for coffee or dinner, before or after depending on the movie time. Please check out our "About" page to learn more about the group. Hope to see you soon! Stefan

Blockbusters? Indie? Cult? You can get those anywhere. This is the group for movies so bad they're good. The weird, the bizarre, the horrible acting, the ridiculous concepts, the non-work-safe hilarity. Most people are just uncomfortable watching them, but for whatever reason they tickle the suitably twisted sense of humor. Would you watch a movie called Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter, because a movie with that title must be awesome?  Does your list of cinematic classics include things like Barbare …

December 22, 2012 Today was the day to bring lesbians together of all ages who would like to go to dinners, movies, walks, breakfast, start a book group, picnics, good Theater, or classical music and even the opera. As I was perusing the various groups I clearly noticed, that lesbians of all ages were left out of the picture. Hey, I know I'm still active and I bet all of you are too. No point counting the years when the fun will go away, let's enjoy these years to the fullest and get back into l …

Do you drink beer? Do you--love board games? Are you a generally awesome person that is easy to get along with and rarely gets pissed off to the point of flipping a Risk board and walking away(because if you're going to flip it you should at least help clean up the mess--you jerk)? So let's all get together a couple times a month and have a great time playing Cards Against Humanity, Cranium, Werewolves of Miller's Hollow, UNO, or you know--any other board game that happens to be available to us. …

This will be updated later.

Your goal is to release stress, relax and refresh. This is meetup of Zen Meditation based on Mikkyo, Japanese Esoteric Buddhism formulated in 1200 years ago. It is classic but new in Bay Area. Please join and experience the moment of Zen.

We practice the 400-year-old art and science of British-style Change Ringing, on handbells. Although rare in the US, it is very common in the tower bells in churches and cathedrals in England.  We would ring in tower, but the closest tower that provides this style of ringing is in Seattle. All are welcome to come and visit. As for our pedigree, we are affiliated with the North American Guild of Change Ringers (http://www.nagcr.org), a member of the Central Council of Church Bell Ringers (http:// …

There's always room for one more book enthusiast in the Fremont Ladies' Book Club! We are a group of ladies who love to read and love socializing with others who share our passion for books.  If this sounds like you, we'd love to have you join us. Everyone gets to contribute to the book selection process.  This allows us to read a wide variety of books that we may not have otherwise picked up in the book store.  Most of our books have been fiction, but we've also read non-fiction, a children's c …

We are a group of movie fans united by our love of current -- and classic -- French films, and more. What's the "more?" Well, French Food, French Art -- whatever strikes our fancy.

If you do know the differences, you're welcome! Whether you speak French fluently, a little, or not at all, you're welcome! All you need to …
