Games for Connection

Join us for an evening of connection through two-step. Free dance lessons guided by Hill Country Two Step!

Some basic two-step experience is helpful but if you know how to walk, chances are you can learn two-step. The instructor will make it a comfortable environment for everyone.
The club has no cover charge, and the dance lessons are free. While tipping the instructors is appreciated, it’s not a requirement. Lesson kicks off at 7:00 PM sharp, so we recommend arriving a bit early. Grab a drink, settle in, and secure a good spot.
Don’t have a dance partner? Don’t worry! Dance partners rotate during the lesson, making it a great opportunity to meet new people. On average, we have 8-12 dancers showing up, so you’ll have plenty of partners to practice with.
So come along, make some new friends, learn a new skill, and engage in a different kind of "game for connection"!
Looking forward to seeing you there! 💃🕺

First off : Because of increased Meetup membership costs (basically doubled), we will have voluntary dues. $1 per person per meet. My venmo is @donald-edgar-1 and the last four of my phone is 7723. We are also not opposed to cash, but apparently that makes us dinosaurs.

*Note: we may be OUTSIDE on patio 2nd floor
We’ve been running this game night thing for three years. Yeah, three years! Some folks show up every week, some pop in and out. Had this one guy, played cards with us for a year, then up and moved for a job. We all got a bit misty-eyed when he left. Made me realize we were more than just a bunch of board game nerds.
We started this whole shebang just to have some people to play games with. But it turned into something more. It’s a place to make friends, a place to fit in, a place for some good, clean, predictable fun. Kinda like that bar where everybody knows your name, you know? So if you’re curious about what this is all about, drop by on a Thursday.
We kick things off at 6:00. You can waltz in and out whenever you want. If we’re in the middle of a game, just grab a seat and wait your turn. We usually wrap things up around 9:00. No pressure to stick around longer than you want or to be punctual!
Most of the time, we just pick a game on the fly. But if you’ve got a game you’re itching to play, just ask. We’ll see if anyone else is game. We often have a new game each week. One of us will teach it, so no worries if you’ve never played before.
*Kids 12 and up are welcome, but they gotta have an adult with them.
*We’re here every Thursday, come rain or shine.

Got something on your mind? Leave a comment, message Scott/Dao, or just show up and ask!

*This event is very consistent. Unless noted, you can safely assume it is happening come rain or shine
FREE EVERY FRIDAY at the Gift ATX everyone is welcome to come play in improv scenes and work out their improv skills! Whether you are a student in classes who wants to reinforce what you’ve learned, a graduate looking for new people to perform improv with, or anyone curious to try out whether improv is for them, you can come play with us in a fun and safe environment!

From 7:15pm to 8:30 we will do warm-ups and two-person scenes that are coached by experienced improv teacher and performer Drew Wesely. You’ll build the muscle memory of finding the Game Of The Scene and being playful and silly while Drew has your back making sure that scenes don’t cross into being uncomfortable. Then you’ll form into teams and perform mock improv shows as if you were in front of an audience. You may try different styles of shows like you’ve seen onstage at improv comedy clubs, or play freeform montages following the funny!

All of this is provided at no charge (tips welcomed), and you can arrive late, leave early, or bring a friend, it’s very casual and relaxed. Socialize with humorous people and have your own creativity supported!
