Movement training in Neukölln
Learn movement. Don’t just tick it off.
Classes often feel good. Real progress is something else: your body unlocks things that were not possible before. That takes commitment and people who know you. That’s exactly what you’ll find here.
A movement community that learns and grows together.
People here don’t drop by once and disappear. They come every week, for months or years. We know your names and your sticking points, and we remember the moment your macaco worked for the first time. Many here started as adults with no experience at all. This isn’t about talent. It’s about practice.
Our trainers bring experience from acrobatics, strength and mobility training, parkour, qi gong, kung fu, Animal Flow, handstands and yoga. It’s not about the dogma of any one discipline. We break movements down into their principles. You know why something works, and you can apply it to new things.
Our classes
Watching videos, collecting classes, trying something new every week: it feels like progress. But you’ve only really learned something when the way you move actually changes. That’s what our training is designed for. Our classes are open to beginners, because we start from where you are right now.
Strength & Mobility
Strength and mobility trained together, in whole movements. The base for everything else you learn with us, and for a body that simply keeps up in daily life.
More about the class
Movement Basics
Back to the floor. Rolling, crawling, squatting and getting up again, the way we moved as kids. You playfully build strength and mobility and learn to feel safe on the ground.
More about the class
Handstands Beginner
Handstands, built up playfully and step by step. Very beginner-friendly: you get used to being upside down and lose the fear of it along the way.
More about the class

“What really surprised me was that I learned to let go here. I’ve become more confident. And I’ve dared to do things I could never have imagined before.”

Five days of movement, nature and community
In everyday life we mostly squeeze our practice in somewhere: an hour after work, ten minutes in the morning if things go well. Once a year we turn that around. Five days out of the city, and the practice gets all the space. We train morning and afternoon, from qi gong to acrobatics. You find out what it’s like to go a few layers deeper when there’s no rush. In between there’s the lake, shared meals and evenings by the fire. Many take home a real boost for their training that lasts well beyond the summer.
What you get
- One theme that runs through the whole camp
- Accommodation and vegetarian meals included
- Sauna, lake, tennis and a lot of lawn
- Time to linger and get to know each other better

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to what people often ask before their first class.
What is movement training?
Movement training is not one discipline like dance, martial arts or calisthenics. It takes from all of them: jumping, climbing, crawling, balancing, catching, throwing, dancing.
We use exercises and principles from dance, martial arts, yoga, parkour and acrobatics, and we speak one language across them. The more classes you visit, the easier new things become. You learn at your own pace, together with others.
What do I need to be able to do?
Just the wish to move. Many people come to us as complete beginners, and yet almost everyone is much better than the rest at something. The mix is what makes the group. We adapt every exercise to your level, or show you alternatives if you have an injury or another limitation.
Can I do a trial class?
Yes. The trial class is one class of your choice at a reduced price. If you want to see more after that, take the two-week trial: 14 days to try all our classes. You find both under Schedule & prices. We look forward to meeting you.
What should I wear?
Comfortable clothes you can move freely in, so nothing tight or heavy. And bring something to drink.
How often are there classes?
Four days a week, mornings and evenings. The exact times are in the schedule.
What does it cost?
You pay per class or become a member. If you come now and then, you are welcome, and if you come regularly, you pay less with a membership. All prices and options are on the schedule & prices page.
