Quick answers for first-timers
Do I need any experience to come to a beginner session?
No experience needed at all. Beginner sessions are built for people trying a sport for the first time, whichever one you pick.
I don't know anyone in Barcelona, can I still come?
Yes - most people at a beginner session are new too, and it is one of the easiest ways to meet people when you are getting started.
Is it free to try a beginner session?
Joining Keep Calm and its beginner sessions is always free. Some sports have a small court or venue cost, paid directly and never to us - see the sport's own page for details.
How do I find out when the next beginner session is on?
Leave your email below with the sport (or sports) you are curious about, and we will tell you when the next beginner session for it is happening.
All Keep Calm events are 18+.
