    I…can’t believe I’m saying that, but I just joined a dance course. (I’m utterly terrified, lol.)

    Lindy hop, a social dance (swing music). It costs something to join a course, but once you know what you’re doing, it’s not an expensive hobby I guess.

    Wish me luck!

    Juggling, unicycle. The circus crowd is a nice crowd to hang with and is usually not about the money whatsoever.

    There are some groups in my city who organize non-profit training meetups together, multiple times a week. Usually in school sport halls, when the kids aren’t there. In the summer, people meet in specific parks together. The biggest juggling convention in Europe (EJC) is basically a juggling festival with thousands of visitors every year, each time in a different country. Not free, but non-profit as well. There are lots of smaller conventions like that everywhere. If you ever feel like learning to juggle, feel free to come and join us!

      I start a project thinking “hey, I can just do that by hand really quick!”. Then I spend weeks contemplating how stupid I am not to do this with a machine. Until the next project. I admit that I lowkey enjoy it though.

    Fishing, specifically freshwater lure fishing, is a wonderful cheap hobby that gets you outside, exploring your surroundings and learning about your local wildlife

      If the opportunity to commit cruelty and violence are required to motivate someone to learn about the animals that they then murder for fun, maybe for everyone’s good they should be directed to a different hobby. For many people who go on to harming humans for their own emotional needs, torturing animals is a nearly universal stepping stone.
