​What is Casa MINGL?

Casa MINGL is a modern connection studio designed for people who want real community and meaningful conversation. It is a warm, intentionally designed space where members join guided circles, drop-in sessions, and soft social gatherings.

 

Is Casa MINGL a co-working space?

Casa MINGL is not a traditional co-working space. Laptops are allowed, but the studio is designed for soft work, journaling, reading, and guided connection. The focus is calm energy, quiet productivity, and community, not office culture. You can work here, but the environment is gentle and centered on personal well-being.

 

Can I use my laptop in the studio?

Yes. Members can bring laptops for quiet work, writing, and creative projects. We keep the space calm and respectful, with no loud calls or group work. Casa MINGL supports focused individual work in a warm, comfortable setting.

 

Are phone calls allowed?

Short, quiet calls are fine. Long calls and video meetings should be taken outside so the studio remains calm for everyone.

 

Can I co-work with a friend or team?

Yes, as long as it stays quiet and respectful. Casa MINGL is designed for soft individual work and quiet connection, not office meetings or team gatherings.

​

What is a Circle?

A Circle is a guided hour of conversation where members gather around a shared theme. Circles use light structure and simple prompts that help people open up, listen, and connect in a way that feels natural and safe. You can talk or simply listen. There is never pressure to share.

 

Do I need to talk during a Circle?

No. You can sit quietly and listen. Circles are designed to support comfort, grounding, and emotional safety.

 

Do I need the MINGL app?

Access to the app is recommended but not required. The app helps you explore circles, stay connected, join groups, and receive reminders. It is a companion to the studio, not a replacement for it.

 

Do I have to be a member to attend?

No. Guests can attend select circles and drop-in sessions for a small fee. Membership gives you regular access, free circles, guest passes, and priority for special gatherings.

 

Can men join?

Yes. Anyone who is respectful, open, and community minded is welcome. Some circles focus on certain identities or experiences, but the overall space is inclusive.

 

Is the studio child-friendly?

The studio is designed for adults. It is a quiet, reflective environment and not set up for children or childcare. Parents who want to join are welcome to attend circles or sessions at times when they have support at home.

 

What is the difference between Access, CASA Plus, and Founders Pass?

Access gives you entry during open hours and unlimited access to the MINGL app.

CASA Plus includes unlimited circles, guest passes, and priority matching on the MINGL app.

Founders Pass is a limited tier that offers deeper access and special community gatherings.

 

Is Casa MINGL only in Sacramento?

The first Casa MINGL studio is in Sacramento. More locations will open as the community grows. The MINGL app can be used anywhere.

 

Can I visit without a membership?

Yes. Select sessions are open to guests. Members receive priority for many offerings.

 

Is Casa MINGL a dating space?

No. Casa MINGL is not designed for dating. The mission is community and meaningful connection. If friendships or natural connections form, that is simply part of community life.

 

Can I host a private gathering or rent the space?

Yes. The studio can be rented for photoshoots, micro workshops, content creation, small events, and private gatherings. Rates vary based on time and purpose.

 

What should I bring to my first visit?

Bring your phone for check-in and a notebook if you plan to journal. Comfortable clothing is recommended for Circles and grounding sessions.

 

Is parking available?

Yes. Street parking is available near the studio. Give yourself extra time during busy evening hours.

 

How do I cancel my membership?

You can cancel through your account in the MINGL app or by contacting Casa MINGL directly. Your membership stays active until the end of the current billing cycle.
