Accessibility:

The building is currently not wheelchair accessible, unfortunately, but it is our top priority to make it so. We are still waiting for a contract of use from the city that would permit us to change the building.

There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door). The bathrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement. The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building). There is no bathroom on the ground floor.

Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral.

Soft Vinyasa Yoga
Nov 22 @ 18:00 – 19:00

The classes will be a mix of Hatha Yoga and Vinyasa flow with the emphasis on breathing, strength, body alignment and relaxation with elements of Yoga Nidra meditation. Classes are accesssible for everyone, please bring a yoga mat with you and other props if needed ( blocks, belts- belts can also be replaced with just simple scarfs).

Accessibility:

As yoga in its ideology is always open for everyone, that’s the rule I’m respecting the most. To keep it available to all I’m always looking at people individually, spending lot of time in the class to make the postures accessible for everyone, to make people keep the good and healthy alignment, and to help them in every possible way by using the props as chairs, blocks, belts and cushions.
I’m creating warm and open space for everyone with simple breathing techniques and meditation. I always ask people if they are okay and I’m repeating during practice that they need to listen to their bodies and don’t go over their boundaries. I’m also informing them what is going to happen next so they know what to expect and feel comfortable.

Radical Movie Club – Mr. Gaga
Dec 2 @ 19:30 – 21:30

This Sunday we will pick up the lost tradition of the Radical Movie Club to share an interesting documentary!

On Sunday evening, we provide a relaxing way to finish your weekend and start your week with some things to think about: movie screenings in the big and comfy room of Andrými! We want to share interesting / political / unknown / all-time favorite / random movies and spend some good time watching them and talking about them. For everyone who wants to escape a bit from life while learning a few things at the same time!

This time, we are going to screen the documentary “Mr. Gaga”, released in 2015 by Tomer Heymann about the Israeli contemporary dancer and choreographer Ohad Naharin, who developed Gaga, a movement language and pedagogy that has defined his company’s training and continues to characterize Israeli contemporary dance.

“Ohad Naharin, artistic director of the Batsheva Dance Company, is regarded as one of the most important choreographers in the world. Meeting him at a critical turning point in his personal life, this spirited and insightful documentary will introduce you to a man with great artistic integrity and an extraordinary vision. Filmed over a period of eight years, director Tomer Heymann mixes intimate rehearsal footage with an extensive unseen archive and breathtaking dance sequences.

This story of an artistic genius who redefined the language of modern dance is guaranteed to leave you skipping.”

The movie will be in English with German subtitles. There are short parts in the film that are spoken in Hebrew, in these parts we will provide a simultaneous interpretation to English.

Andrými is a radical social center and a community where values of equality and freedom are fought for. It’s purpose is to be an open space for grassroot groups and individuals to meet and organise.

/// Aðgengi:
Andrými er flutt í nýtt húsnæði á Bergþórugötu 20. Húsið er því miður ekki aðgengilegt fyrir hjólastóla í augnablikinu en það er mikið forgangsatriði hjá okkur að gera fyrstu hæð hússins aðgengilega sem fyrst. Við erum enn að bíða eftir samningi frá borginni sem myndi gera okkur kleift að gera breytingar á byggingunni. Teikningar af húsinu eru komnar til arkítekts sem er að vinna í teikningu af rampi og aðgengilegu klósetti svo við getum sent þær til Minjastofnunar í umsagnarskyldu og svo til borgarinnar.

Það er eitt þrep við hliðið að garðinum og svo fimm þrep sem leiða upp að aðalinngangi. Hvert þrep er 17sm hátt. Breidd dyra í húsinu er á milli 50sm (dyr að baðherberginu á efri hæð) og 80sm (aðaldyrnar). Dyrnar að fundarherberginu eru 75sm á breidd eins og flestar aðrar dyr í húsinu.
Baðherbergin eru einungis á efri hæð og í kjallara eins og er. Bæði baðherbergin eru kynlaus.

Söngvaka // Trad song session
Dec 11 @ 18:30 – 21:30

19:00-21:00

Monthly workshop session led by members of Kvæðamannafélið Iðunn, the organisation set up to preserve and pass on the singing traditons of Iceland (see http://rimur.is/?page_id=367). The aim of the sessions is to learn, practise and share traditional Icelandic folk songs, for example tvísöngur. We will also welcome people from other singing traditions to share their songs. The sessions are open to all. No previous singing experience is necessary. Songs will be taught ‘by ear’, with some notation available for people who find it helpful.

We will make every effort to accommodate everyone who comes. In particular, we are aware that some people are nervous about singing in ‘public’ situations. We will make every effort to make the sessions welcoming and supportive of everyone attending.

In the last years the political theatre became a strong scene in Romania. This will be a short presentation about the radical political movement around the main theatre and art groups/spaces/magazines/platforms.
