About this Event

Fancy trying something new and make new friends along the way? Then this is for you, join for free now. Training /rehearsals take place every Tuesday.

Human Towers or "castells" s a mixture of sport and culture (traditional from Catalonia). There are lots of people on the base and a few climb up at someone's shoulders, making nice and impressive structures. We work together as a team, for most of us it feels like extended family. Performances are usually accompanied on the event days by pipes and drums.

Come along to have a nice chat and do a bit of exercise outside of the Gym. There's something for everyone, staying on the ground level and secure people, or, if you like acrobats, you can climb up too. You can also just come to see what this is about and take pictures and help us to spread the word (tag us on your social media!) 😉

No matter your height, age, physical condition or cultural background. There is a position for you! Come with your family, your friends, your partner or just you. You'll find a nice mixture of nationalities, but we all speak in English.

We have some events planned during the year other than a regular Tuesday sessions. You are more than welcome be part of them as well.

Recommended dress code: (old) shirt and jeans, "faixa" is provided by Colla Castellera. More information will be provided when you join.

Joining is free, but if you decide to come regularly, a monthly donation of £12 or £3 per session would be appreciated, this is to help us to pay the costs. Families with kids suggested donation is one subscritpion per household only. However if you feel a monthly / weekly donation is too much for you, feel free to speak to one of our team members, we want to support you if you join us.
