It's spring, and time to get that body back into shape. Since it's still too cold here to go anywhere outside and actually move, we offer you the perfect alternative:

Feel free to join any time after 19:00 on Friday. And bring some more drinks if you happen to come across some.

Overnight stays possible if you're coming from abroad - bring your own sleeping gear.Read More
