There is a force field within you, that interacts with the force field of the universe around you. Qigong is about understanding, harmonising and cultivating those force fields. The remarkable thing is that its very powerful when one individual does it, but twice as powerful when 2 come together. etc etc. You'll find people walk past and they can 'feel' the energy. Its time to do qigong together, to bring it out of our backyards and homes and into the public. This group is a forum where you can …

This group has been created for blended Polynesian families from Northside Brisbane to connect and come together with other families that are also blended with cultures and for our children to play with other children with Polynesian back ground and to build community together.

The worlds of hackers and journalists are coming together as reporting goes digital and Internet companies become media empires. Journalists call themselves "hacks," someone who can churn out words in any situation. Hackers use the digital equivalent of duct tape to whip out code. Hacker-journalists try and bridge the two worlds. This group is to bring all these people together -- those who are working to help people make sense of their world. It's for hackers exploring technologies to filter an …

Most of us frequent the gym once (maybe twice) a week but the gym is a sterile, lonely, cold environment, where social interaction stands out like a sore thumb, rather than the norm. Does anyone remember team sport at school or university? That's how we USED TO stay fit and healthy - we did things TOGETHER! We didn't all sit in the gym by ourselves or go off running alone. We PLAYED TOGETHER and it was FUN! Well, now the time has come, to smile, sweat, run, chat, win and lose TOGETHER. Forget ab …

Having been around the motorcycle community for most of my life, I have always found it suprising how the common thread of a bike can bring people of many different backgrounds together. Most often it does'nt matter if you are a national champ, or a social trailrider, we seem to be able to have a laugh and tell stories of how fast we used to be! Our aim is to have a meeting point where dirtbike, trailbike and adventure riders can get together on a regular basis. We feel there is a need for …

This group is for women who are new to motherhood and want to get support, share stories, and find new friends with those in similar situations who live close by. There's a big difference between a first time mum with a newborn, and a mum who has a toddler, older child, or even a few children.  Therefore I intend for this group to consist of mums with newborns of a similar age so we can share the journey together and give advice and support while events are still fresh in our minds. Perhaps in …
