Shared sessions, organized around the calendar year
Caban periodically organizes informational walking groups, mobility workshops, and discussion sessions in and around Bandung, aimed at men exploring functional fitness later in life. These sessions are editorial and educational in nature — a chance to compare notes, ask questions of guest practitioners, and see drills demonstrated in person rather than read about them on a page.
Below is an overview of the 2026 session calendar along with the different session formats offered throughout the year.

A recurring Saturday-morning walking group begins, focused on building a consistent aerobic habit in cooler early-day temperatures.
