WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING?
If it's your first day, grab an old collared shirt (not a T-shirt!), sturdy trousers (old jeans work well!), and come join us in one of our rehearsals!
Everyone can take part in our group! If you like being on the ground, you will be perfect for our pinya! Not scared of heights? Come climb in our tronc! And if you are small enough and want to reach the sky, we have a place for you in the pom de dalt!
In our colla, you can try all positions depending on your physical abilities and your personal preferences. You will always have the chance to try new positions and learn anything you want to enjoy dins amazing world!
Everyone is welcome!
WHAT DO WE DO IN A REHEARSAL?
After stretching, during the first half hour you have the chance to practice your climbing skills in simple structures. Don't you worry, our Welcoming Team will help you with anything at the beginning!
Later, our Tècnica team will explain what we will focus on during the rehearsal.
​
After that, we start practicing bigger structures, including structures to practice for performances and structures so newer people can practice other positions.
​
fter that, it’s a wrap! We go to the pub to chat and spend quality time with our friends!
