This is the course for both active gymnastics and curious beginners. Get individual and professional follow-up, and unfold in one of Norway's newest gym.
Do you have a burning desire to learn somersaults with screws, double somersaults, triple somersaults or just generally better body control? This course is the choice for you who want to be challenged in new jumps and exercises on trampoline and tumbling, as well as improve your balance, flexibility, coordination, strength and speed.
Here you get the best of both worlds; gymnastics with the folk high school experience. Just across the road from our school is Norway's most beautiful and newest gym. This is the home ground of the local gymnastics club STAG, a heavily qualified club, with many talented gymnasts in its stable. This gym will be your classroom this school year with David Jensen as instructor.
Here are some of the things we will be doing throughout the year:
Mandatory: Yes
Price: Included in course price
Duration: 5 dager
The whole school goes on a week-long trip to Hemsedal. This is the week both for you who like speed and alpine, you who like high mountain hikes, or you who want to laze in front of the fireplace with a hot chocolate. We hold courses in most disciplines and if you want it to go extra fast, it is possible to ride a snowmobile on a trail.
Furthermore, we will eat lots of good food, have great evening gatherings and a lot of entertainment. This trip is one of the highlights of the year for many!
For those who want to ski / snowboard, lift passes and equipment rental will cost extra (approximate price for this is from NOK 300,- to 1400,- for three days)
Here you can strengthen your interests, learn something new, become more confident in who you are and what you want in life.
Through courses of high professional quality, a large and varied menu of electives as well as a very good school environment, we give you the folk high school year you dream of.
The school has a versatile school facility in pleasant surroundings near the sea. Teaching rooms, workshops and special rooms are also at your disposal outside of teaching hours. Large gymnasium, football and beach volleyball court, theater stage/black box, rehearsal room and studio. All this is surrounded by a large outdoor area with park facilities.
In the evenings you can partake in games, sports and several other activities.
