Workshops at ATOLL Festival

New experiences, skills, and hands-on practice

We are planning exciting workshops as part of the festival again in 2026. More information will follow shortly!

MINI CELLULAR – Small cells, large community

September 18–20, 2026

Partner acrobatics and dance with, in, and on an open wooden structure
Workshop with a performance for children ages 9–12

A project by Maja Zimmerlin, Kritonas Anastasopoulos, and Umberto Freddi

We look forward to spending three days with you exploring the wooden structure MINI CELLULA and creating a dance and acrobatics performance.

During the workshop, we’ll work with you to develop acrobatic group formations in and around the wooden structures. We’ll climb and balance—both on and with our bodies, as well as on and with the wooden structure. Sometimes huddled close together like in thickets, sometimes high up on the platform, or arranged in a pyramid. Never alone, but always together. We’ll support one another, trust each other, and achieve a great deal together.

You’ll learn to contribute your own skills and rely on those of others: “It’s okay to be who I am—and that’s how I’m part of the group.”

Do you enjoy moving, are you curious, and would you like to help us put together a little performance? Then join us—we look forward to seeing you.
