Get out of your head and into your body.
This experience invites you to step away from thinking, planning, and deciding, and into a space where movement becomes a way of listening. Rather than aiming for a result, you’re invited to follow curiosity, tune into sensation, and notice what emerges when intention softens.
The exact form remains a surprise, shaped by the group, the space, and the moment. What’s certain is a carefully held environment that feels spacious, grounded, and open to exploration. Without pressure to perform or get anything “right.”
Sessions can feel playful, meditative, grounding, or unexpectedly surreal. What unfolds is different each time, offering room to experiment, expand your creative range, and connect to yourself and to those you move alongside.
No prior experience is needed. Participation is always self-paced, with space to observe, rest, or join in as feels right.
Today's guide
This session is guided by a Berlin-based interdisciplinary artist and facilitator, and former TEDx speaker, who designs immersive experiences rooted in presence, connection, and embodied inquiry.
Drawing from years of work across performance, art, and experience design, their practice focuses on creating spaces that feel both carefully held and open-ended.

What others said about similar sessions
“I felt held without being directed. There was space to explore, pause, and simply notice what was happening. And somehow that made it feel very human and real.”

What is Uncommon Club?
Uncommon Club creates guided group sessions built around shared novelty, doing something unfamiliar together, in a way that feels safe, human, and intentional.
We believe that when people step into a new experience at the same time, without knowing exactly what will happen, habits soften, curiosity opens, and connection becomes more natural.
That’s why Uncommon Club sessions are:
carefully guided and consent-led,
designed around presence rather than performance,
and kept partly a surprise.
Not to confuse you, but to meet you before autopilot takes over.

✅ Structured, consent-led, and psychologically safe
Uncommon Club is not:
❌ A party or club night
❌ An intense fitness class
❌ A networking event
❌ A sexual setting
❌ Therapy, counselling, or treatment
