Inspired by Tony of ZenHiking. We are starting a new Washington DC meetup that combines several spiritual disciplines such as Meditation, Yoga, TUMMO Reiki, Chi Gong(Qigong) and Tai Chi with all other fun outdoor activities like Hiking, Cycling, Canoeing, Wine Tasting, Camping, Golf and Tennis. Why? The answer is simple. Meditation is best combined with outdoor activities. What could be more fun and more spiritual than doing meditation before or after a day of exciting activities such as Yoga, T …

Welcome to the Mid-Atlantic Hikers Climbers & Campers Group. We welcome all, young and old, newbie and experienced, for hiking, climbing, backpacking, kayaking, camping, happy hours, festivals, sporting events and occasional trips. We don't charge fees for hiking (why pay for something free?), we don't have frustrating waiting lists, nor we don't micromanage our members. Our activities are for fun, stress relief and exercise, not a sporting competition. (Some events incur event admission fees th …

First, the 20's and 30's tag is a mindset not an age requirement to join this group. We are a diverse group and ALL are welcome here !! However, we use the 20's and 30's because that's what the majority of our group and the events that we do around the area. The DC, MD & VA Hiking Group is all about meeting life long friends, getting to know new people, keeping in touch with old friends, having fun, and engaging in new activities while learning about ourselves. We are genuine and we hope people …

Welcome All new Members! What are we about?!? This is a new group that at this moment has no particular purpose other than for people to come together and plan just about anything.

I started this group because healthy living is the key to long life! We're much more likely to be consistent with our exercise if we're having fun and meeting interesting friends. Zumba is one of the most exciting, fun workouts that doesn't even feel like exercise.  You can burn up to 1000 calories in one hour.  Bootcamp is the perfect compliment because you get your cardio from zumba and top it off with the strength workout for the best muscle tone.  You don't feel intimidated.  All fitness lev …

A group for adventurous dogs and their people. The plan is to set up meetups for some of our favorite things to do with our dogs: off-leash hiking, walking, group playdates, training field trips, on-leash socialization walks etc. We'll try out new things when we find them...we're open to all suggestions! We don't discriminate based on breed or type, but we do ask that dogs are non-dog-aggressive to attend certain events, such as group playdates or off-leash hikes.

This group was started because, in 2009, two people got interested in cycling as a recreational activity and decided to make recumbent bicycles their ride of choice. At first, we found the closest Rail Trail, but then realized the fact that there are great biking opportunities all over the place! We soon became aware that they were a little "different". One DF cyclist chided us with the remark "that looks like a birthing chair." We realized we had the last laugh - at a "rest stop"  we walked p …

This group was created primarily for Christ-followers who are passionate about God and the outdoors, though non-Christians are certainly welcome as well!

This group is for meeting and socializing with other individuals and couples who are childfree by choice. Choosing to not have children is a valid lifestyle choice for many in today's world. Common themes for those who are childfree are things like: - Wanting the freedom to pursue careers or hobbies - Concerns of overpopulation - Wanting to concentrate on their relationship rather than a family - Economic benefits of not rearing children - "Insert your reason here" If this sounds like you, we kn …
