Allen Pittman teaching a group class, students crawling

Zürich · August–October 2026

Wisdom of the Body

Rediscover what your body already knows.

Join the open Q&A evening

An exploratory movement practice from the floor to standing.

Allen’s founding question

What is complete physical training?

Wisdom of the Body explores this question through attention, adaptability and movement from the floor to standing. It offers principles to explore, rather than a form to copy.

Classes take place in small groups — no experience is needed.
