Card & Board Games @ Wellard

Are you struggling with challenges in your relationships with others - at home, at work, or with friends?

Or have you had a falling out with someone you care about, and you want to heal and strengthen your relationship with them?

Or maybe your relationships are going well, but you want to deepen your connection and prevent future problems?

If so, come and join our free weekly class - a relaxed community space to explore practical tools, fresh ideas, and real conversations that help you communicate more effectively and strengthen your relationships.

*This group is also advertised outside Meetup, and regulars don’t RSVP every week. So don’t worry if you don't see many attendees below - there’s always a great group there!*

**What You’ll Get Out of These Classes**

Each week, we’ll explore key principles, techniques and skills to help you:

✅ Communicate more clearly and constructively

✅ Encourage others to open up and communicate freely with you

✅ Prevent misunderstandings, arguments and fights

✅ Navigate and handle painful emotions without shutting down or blowing up

✅ Resolve practical problems, contentious issues and conflicts in your relationships

✅ Rebuild trust, heal and strengthen your relationships

This class runs every week and focuses on a new topic each time - you’ll always learn a ton of new things and have plenty of “aha!” moments!

You can use what you learn in any relationship context (partners, families, friendships, colleagues, networks) so it’s totally fine to come if you’re single.

No previous experience or skills are needed, and people of any age, gender and background are welcome :)

*Please note: This class is not a form of therapy or counselling. It’s a community-based space for reflection, discussion, and learning practical strategies. If you're facing a crisis or needing mental health support, please seek help from a qualified professional or support service.*

**What These Classes Look Like**

Each class is a combination of:

👨🏼‍🏫 Interactive presentations

📋 Real life examples and case studies

🗨 Group discussion and Q&A

🛠 Practical exercises and activities

The classes always provide a safe and supportive environment, while being casual and fun - it's an awesome group of people!

You’ll have a great time and learn a ton of valuable stuff, and you’ll leave each class feeling clearer, more in control and really happy you came :)

**About Your Host**

Hi, I’m AJ.

I’ve been exploring relationships and communication passionately for the past 20 years, and I’ve been helping people in this area professionally for the past 10 years.

Over that time, I've built a huge base of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques, as well as developing a few systems and processes of my own.

I’m always excited to share what I've learned to help people transform their relationships and communication - and that’s what this class is all about!

I'm also passionate about contributing and having an impact. This class is my latest volunteer project, and I’d love for you to be part of it.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

I’m looking forward to meeting and connecting with you :)

Have a Chat - Lakelands

A warm welcome to those who are interested in connecting with a group of like-hearted individuals to develop a meditative practice in a supportive space. This group is suitable for people over 18 years of age at both beginner and experienced levels of practice. If you are new to meditation, Kelly will offer more guidance as you explore your unique journey.

**About the host**
Kelly loves encouraging people to develop a nurturing relationship with themselves. She is a registered and practising facilitator through Meditation Australia and has a degree in education with a special interest in supporting students at educational risk. She also holds a diploma in both holistic counselling and in coaching, mentoring and interpersonal facilitation.

**What to expect**
Classes are free and hosted at Gumblossom Community Centre in Quinns Rocks every Tuesday evening. Participants are invited into the room at 6:45pm. We spend some time connecting with each other socially before settling in for the guided mindfulness and mediation session. Unfortunately, participants will not be able to enter the room after 7:00pm as the meditation session will be underway. This is a safe, trauma-informed space and participants are respectfully requested to not consume alcohol, drugs, cigarettes or eat foods with strong aromas such as garlic and onion before class. Perfume or aftershave can trigger allergies for participants, so not spraying yourself before class is greatly appreciated. If you have allergies or a strong preference against particular essential oils, please make this known prior to class as an aromatherapy diffuser is used to enhance relaxation. We conclude the evening just before 7:30pm with an internal or verbalised gratitude focus.

**Facilities**
There are ample parking bays in the carpark, and clean bathroom facilities are available inside the venue. Participants are encouraged to use the facilities before entering the meditation room so we don’t disturb the space once we are settled in. It is a disability friendly venue with no stairs, but please let Kelly know if you have mobility requirements so she can ensure the class space is set up appropriately for you ahead of time.

**What to bring**
Please bring a water bottle, comfy clothes and a cushion if you find plastic chairs uncomfortable. You are also welcome to bring your own camping chair if this is more comfortable for you. If you would like to lay down, please feel welcome to bring your yoga mat; however, be mindful that if it is a full class, there won’t be lots of space to do this. The room has adjustable air conditioning and is pleasant during cool and warm evenings. Our body temp. can fluctuate during meditation though, so bringing what you need to make yourself comfortable is encouraged. Phones need to be turned off or on silent mode. If choosing to remove your shoes, please be mindful of class participants and ensure your feet aren’t smelly!

**Booking**
The class size is kept to a max. of 15 participants and bookings are essential. Please don't turn up to the venue if you've not reserved your space.

We look forward to meeting you and embarking on a journey of self-care together.

Belmont - Walk around Miles Park

Hello there. If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’re out here looking for a new and exciting way to spend an evening, and that’s what we’re here to provide. Do you enjoy card games? Do you want to meet more likeminded people? Are you sick of me asking questions? Then let’s talk 😊

First thing is first… our names are Jordan and... well, right now, it's just Jordan. We’re here to hopefully bring together a nice little community of people who like having a nice social catch up with people who enjoy the same things, and enjoy having a laugh whilst playing unconventional (but also normal as well) tabletop games. We want to play some fun little card games with likeminded people, have a laugh, and quite possibly even make some new friends along the way.

We have discussed some games that we could play, and a good few of them are a bit unconventional, but absolutely fun. We will still have the normal games like Uno and other classic favourites, but we have other lesser-known games such as Chocobo’s Crystal Hunt, Love Letter (not as romantic as it sounds but you will still fall in love with it), and many others.

There’s a lot that we could say about the operations behind our game night, but we’ll just give a TL;DR version for those of you who are already fed up with the amount of reading you’ve done so far. This is what we have so far:

* **Time:** 6pm-8pm
* **Day:** Every second Wednesday
* **Location:** Ocean Keys shopping centre food court

If you think there’s anything that we’ve missed, please let us know and we will throw in that extra information. With all of that said, if you have any other questions, queries, suggestions, or just want to discuss things further, don’t even thing about hesitating to get in contact with Jordan (0407868818) by phone, or even send us a message on Meetup. We will do our absolute best to get back to you. Looking forward to hearing from you all, and looking way more forward to meeting you all in person.

As a side note - please confirm via a direct message if you are coming or not, as we’d love to know who's coming in advance 😊

Rags to Bags - Merriwa.

Enjoy the meandering peaceful bushland and flat paths that are in Henley Reserve park and bushland with friendly locals!

Mostly shady and cool, there are two paths to choose: stay on the paved path near the basketball court and playground, ideal for people with walkers, prams, crutches and wheelchairs. Or, extend your walk with a venture into the bushland trail and enjoy the serenity of tree-lined paths. The bush trail is better suited to those who don't rely on wheels to move as in some places it is soft with sand, but mostly it is solid.

The full walk will take less than an hour to do.

Bring your hat, wear sunscreen and carry water.
The best parking is on Ringwood Loop. Meet at the basketball court for a quick meet and greet before moving on to the paved walk, followed by the bush walk for those eager to take on a little more of the walk.

Come along for a gentle stroll, enjoy the natural beauty of the reserve and meet others who love to celebrate the beautiful bushland of Kwinana or need a little inspiration to get mobile on an easy walking track.

Your group leader Kate looks forward to seeing you there!

Friday Crafternoon

Come and join us for the healthiest “sundowner” going!

Each week we walk/roll/stroll for 60 minutes. Keep an eye on the start time as it changes every few weeks according to the time the sun sets!

We use the sealed path returning as the sun sets. Due to current works on the path south of Burns Beach we head north.

There are benches with beautiful views to make use of so if you prefer not to walk the whole distance and or to avoid the big hill before we turn around! We will collect you on our way back. You are welcome to stay on after the walk to watch the changing colors of the sunset and for a chat.

* We recommend comfortable shoes for walking, a hat, sunscreen and to bring water.
* Dogs on a short lead (so that they can't cross to the other side of the path) are welcome.
* Please stay to the left so as to keep the other side of the path free for oncoming traffic and for cyclists/scooter riders to overtake.
* Should you see a snake (rare) stay back and wait until it slithers into the bush.

This event usually attracts around 10 people so don't think you are the only one coming. (Advertised elsewhere)

Feel free to ask us questions!

Gentle Somatic Yoga will meet every Saturday morning.
Gentle Somatic Yoga® incorporates slow, mindful movements that unwind long held, stress-based patterns and/or injuries. Therapeutic and corrective exercises called Somatic Movement Flows® erase chronic muscle pain and significantly increase flexibility though self-correction. In Gentle Somatic Yoga® we do not intend to stretch muscles in order to achieve results. Instead, we go to the root cause of all muscular pain, which is found in the brain, and reprogram habitual patterns of stress held deep within the body (Soma). Most of the Somatic Movement Flows® are performed on the floor with a yoga mat and a blanket or beach towel which is used as support for your head and as a covering if you feel chilled.

Gentle Yoga - Yanchep

We're a friendly group of knitters and crocheters who support and inspire each other in the lovely gardens of Perth City Farm. Our group meets on the second and fourth Saturday of each month.

We will most likely meet under the shade of the big tree on the farm, follow the path to your left as you walk in the front gate or ask at the Perth City Farm market stall if you're not sure. If it's raining we'll shift to the cafe.

The Markets will be in full swing during our session, so make sure you bring a bag and set some time aside to purchase some local produce.

If the weather is forecast to be very hot we may shift the time to earlier in the morning, so RSVP to ensure you get any messages.

Belmont Coffee Catchup

This is not your typical craft group with set projects or expectations. It’s more like a curiosity shop of creating — a welcoming circle where women gather to share stories and mindfully explore whatever supplies are on hand.

A basket of donated and shared materials will be available to spark inspiration and you’re always welcome to bring along your own project too. There’s something quietly exciting about exploring together — discovering what emerges when we slow down, follow our curiosity and create side by side.

* No perfection required
* No experience necessary
* Just a gentle invitation to connect

This is a blend of women’s social gathering and mindful making — a space to feel lighter when you leave, yet fuller from meaningful connection.
You'll find us upstairs at Darius Wells in the David Nelson Art Room (above the Kwinana Dome Cafe) 11.30am til 2pm
Please Note: There is a lift available

**Future dates: Thursday 2nd, 16th & 30th April**

About the Group

We’re a laid-back sewing group in Butler. Everyone brings their own projects, and we help each other out when needed. All skill levels are welcome-whether you’ve never touched a sewing machine or you’re a seasoned stitcher. Just bring your own gear and fabric.

About Your Host

Hey, I’m Demi. I got into sewing about four years ago after my first bub was born-I wanted to make her some cute little outfits. I’m not a pro, but I love trying new patterns and figuring out how things go together. If you don’t have a machine yet, no stress-you can share mine to give sewing a go. I’m happy to get beginners started with easy makes like tote bags, scrunchies, or ties-just bring your fabric (and elastic for scrunchies).

What to Expect

We meet on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month from 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm. Bring your machine, set up, and work on your pieces at your own pace. Feel free to ask anyone for help if you get stuck. We start packing up around 8:00 pm and finish by 8:30 pm.

Got questions? Just call or text me (Demi) on 0430 948 861.

Colouring stayed with me as I grew up, and after discovering alcohol markers, I fell in love with it even more. 🎗️💕
