Do we offer trial sessions?

Yes, we do! We will be holding trial training sessions on Sunday 18/01 and Sunday 25/01. There will be two sessions on each day, making four sessions in total. The first session will be from 18:00–20:00, and the second from 20:00–22:00.

To sign up for these sessions, you must join this Spond group:

Registration for the trial sessions opens 2 days in advance, i.e. on the Friday before. There are only 28 spots per session, so it’s first come, first served!

We will also be offering recreational training sessions through Sit every Friday (starting Friday, January 23rd) from 15:00–17:00, where you do not need to be a member of our club to participate. This will take place at Gløshaugen, and you’ll need to book the sessions in the Sit app or on their website. These sessions are open to everyone with a Sit membership!
