We care more about you than your grammar.
We are Fruitloop & The Mayor, the Duo behind Brida – a community where you don’t just learn English, you become yourself in English.
Free to join. Paid meetings when you’re ready to speak with us live.

The Duo behind Brida
One of us is Fruitloop – intuitive, warm and playfully curious. The other is The Mayor – experienced, reflective and full of stories. Together we run Brida, a town built on human connection in English.
Fruitloop, from South Africa, is the spark. She turns English into curiosity and play – asking the right questions, creating safe space and helping you feel at ease when you speak.

The Mayor, based in France, is the storyteller and town builder. With decades of experience, he knows that English is not just vocabulary – it’s how you show up in the world.
What is Brida?
Brida is not a classroom. It’s a living town – a community where you practise English through real conversations, real people and real emotions.
The town where you live your English
When you step into Brida, you step into a global village. Some people wander through the Plaza, some open a Mystery Box every morning, some listen quietly to podcasts, and others jump straight into meetings with us.
- 🟣 The Plaza. Our Playground
- 🟡 Mystery Box. Our Activities
- 🔵 Podcasts & Pineapple. Brida News & Gossip
- 🟢 Paid Meetings. Conversations that matter.
Think of Brida as a town map: you can stroll through the Plaza, drop into a meeting, listen to a podcast or open your Mystery Box – all in English, all at your pace.
How Brida helps you
Most people don’t struggle with English grammar – they struggle with confidence, fear, and sounding like themselves in English. That’s where we come in.
We focus on your voice, not your mistakes. You’ll practise real communication in small, safe groups where it’s okay to try, fail, laugh and try again.
You’re not just “a learner”. You are a person with stories, opinions, humour and emotions. We help you bring that into English.
Our town has a rhythm – Plaza, Mystery Boxes, Podcasts, Meetings. The structure keeps you moving; the heart keeps you coming back.
Your Brida experience
Joining is deceptively easy. Staying feels natural.
Create your free account. You can arrive from a Meetup, a link, or a recommendation. No test, no pressure – just come as you are.
Visit the Plaza, open your Mystery Boxes, listen to podcasts and Pineapple stories. Get a feel for the community.
When you’re ready, book a paid meeting with the Duo. We design sessions around real topics, real lives and real language.
Some people come weekly, some monthly, some in seasons of life. You choose your rhythm – Brida is here when you need it.
