Fent Pinya: The Original Human Towers Workshop

The original Castellers team building workshop for companies, created by Teamtowers. Over 20 years applying the "Metanoia" of Human Towers to align teams and build an unbreakable company culture.

What is Fent Pinya?

The original Castellers workshop for companies

Fent Pinya is the original Castellers (Human Towers) team building workshop, created by Teamtowers. For more than 20 years it has turned groups of 10 to 1,000 people into an authentic colla castellera in less than two hours, so teams experience shared leadership, trust and real-time communication first-hand.

The name comes from the Catalan expression fer pinya: the pinya is the human base that holds up the tower, and "making pinya" means joining forces towards a common goal. Castells are recognised by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is the original Castellers workshop for companies?

Fent Pinya, by Teamtowers. We have been applying the Casteller model to team development for more than 20 years and have worked with over 150 organisations such as IKEA, Novartis, Vodafone, La Caixa, IESE and ESADE.

What does "fer pinya" mean?

It is a Catalan expression that comes from castells: the pinya is the base of people holding up the human tower. It means joining forces and supporting each other to reach a common goal.

Is it safe to build a human tower in a corporate event?

Absolutely. It is a low-risk activity. We provide all safety equipment (traditional supportive sashes), comprehensive liability insurance, and the entire process is meticulously supervised by our expert monitors.

How many people can participate?

Our methodology is infinitely scalable. We run highly effective workshops for executive teams of 10 people, all the way up to massive corporate conventions of 1,000 participants simultaneously.

What kind of venue is required?

Logistics are seamless. We only need a clear, flat space of approximately 10x10 meters with a minimum ceiling height of 5 meters. We frequently host this on beaches, hotel ballrooms, gardens, and even cruise ships.

Are all physical conditions and ages welcome?

Yes! "All humans welcome." The beauty of the Casteller model is complementarity. You don't need to be strong or athletic to be vital. The base (the Pinya) requires everyone's weight and support to guarantee the tower's safety.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the number of people, the place and the date. Tell us those three things and you will get a tailored proposal by email within 24 hours.

In what languages is the workshop available?

Our team dynamically facilitates the workshop in English, Spanish, Catalan, German, and French, making it the perfect choice for international companies and DMCs.
