I have been teaching small watercolor Classes at a Coffee House in Altadena (close to Pasadena)  in Los Angeles County for many years, and hope to find more people interested in exploring this demanding but exciting medium. The classes are limited to no more than 6 students per class so I can give a more individual experience than typically larger classes. It is very hard to learn the nuances of watercolor without having someone who can see what you are doing and point out how changing your proc …

This is a meetup for people who love learning and thinking about the world around them: sociology, history, philosophy, evolution, primatology, cognitive science, cultural studies, biographies, political science, curre …

I know there are a lot of people learning English as a second language, but we almost never have the opportunity to practice it orally. Well, this is your opportunity to practice it and improve it, because this Meetup is for all English levels, so don't be shy. Be relaxed, 'NO RULES' in this group, (unless you suggest something). We have casual reunions with informal conversations. Intellectual conversations are not necessary if you don't want to etc. There is not an exact schedule to arrive etc …

Hello, I am a cyclist looking to make a group of casual bike riders for a daily morning ride in the Eagle Rock / Pasadena area. I am not a hard core rider so rides of 10-20 miles tops is the goal, anywhere from 3 to 5 days a week. The rides will be of a moderate level of difficulty not exceeding 2 hours and more likely only an hour. The goal of every ride should be a cup of coffee at some point. All kidding aside please get in touch with me if you need some riding friends.

I'm starting this group because I had a wonderful homebirth experience with my first child in Dec. 2011, and I'm planning to have another homebirth with my second child due in early July. I want to find a small group of women who have had a homebirth or who are now pregnant and considering homebirth as an option. I want to build a support system for us as we go through this unique experience together. I want women to know that there are resources and communities who believe that birth is a natur …

As we only make up about 3% of the population, it's time we get our master minds together. We can use this group to do some "empire-building" or simply to exchange our experiences. Like similar meetups, I am thinking of meeting for coffee, dinner or drinks, but feel free to make suggestions for anything else. I just recently learned about the MBTI and my type and have found that just reading about it sheds a whole new light on a lot of experiences in my life. I would love to hear how closely all …
