Raw training

Powerlifting

A sport with three main exercises – squat, bench press and deadlift. The goal is to lift as much weight as possible (1RM).

Olympic weightlifting

• Focus on explosive strength, technique and power through jerks and thrusts.
• Builds both physique and coordination – the foundation for many other sports.

Functional fitness

• Varied and functional training that combines strength, endurance and gymnastic skills.
• Competitions and training methods that suit both exercisers and those who want to compete.
• A form of competition that combines running and functional exercises.
• Perfect for those who enjoy both fitness and strength, and who want to try out a growing sport.

You get:

• Combination of self-training and group sessions
• Individual follow-up and professional support
• Teaching in training planning, recovery, diet, technique and training theory
• A safe environment where we cheer each other on

We are one clean school with focus on pure sport, and we collaborate closely with Anti-doping Norway.

For those of you who either want to live like an athlete – or test everything and find your sport.

This is what you learn

This line is for those of you who are focused or are completely new and want to learn from scratch. You will get a year of structure, community and the joy of training. You will get to test new forms of training in an inclusive environment.

Learning for life

The curriculum is important, but Elverum Folk High School is much more than just the curriculum. You also have electives in the afternoons and evenings, study trips with overnight stays, Saturday classes, and there is a lot of social happening – both planned and spontaneous.

All of these moments, encounters, and experiences provide valuable learning that will build and develop your skills, personality, and competencies for the rest of your life.

No matter what you're going to do after folk high school, it'll be better when you have a little more experience. Know yourself a little better. Have a slightly larger network and have challenged yourself.
