I visited these guys a couple weeks ago and played some 7 Wonders with some of them after class. It was a fun group and it was really neat to see how it's run. I've been working pretty hard in improving my skills on my own via Coursera, Code School, etc... but this is way better. Pair programming and then chatting with all the other pairs working on the same thing looked like it was not only effective, but also motivational. It was a fun group to hang out with, too. The organizer was even kind enough to share a few tidbits of advice for in in terms of learning materials, etc for me to pursue on my own. I'm definitely applying for their next batch.
