The Vaulting and EXPERIENCE CAMP IN SWEDEN lasts 7 days (arrival day – 5 training days – departure day) and takes place approx. 100 km south of Stockholm. The accommodation is located directly on a lake and is part of a spectacular landscape in which we will move. The MOVIE , a galloping wooden horse, is of course there again. It is set up in the gymnastics hall, where we work on compulsory techniques, train strength and endurance, and play with expression. There are several fun sports and events on the agenda again this year. Each participant must organize their travel privately. We look forward to seeing you!
The training is geared towards the sport of vaulting. What we need as vaulters is a basic level of fitness consisting of strength, endurance and flexibility. The basics of vaulting technique are learned in the gym during gymnastics training, on the galloping wooden horse “MOVIE” or on a normal wooden horse. Further training units deal with balance, rhythm, expression and body awareness. We combine this training content in fun sports such as parkour, acrobatics, stand-up paddling or expressive training. The offering and training options are diverse and vary slightly from year to year. The exact training plan will not be put together until late spring.
What we promise is extensive and challenging training!
Any questions about the camp
Is the camp taking place?
We need at least 30 participants to be able to finance the camp. This is usually not a problem! In recent years, Corona has also thrown a wrench into our plans... But that's also looking good at the moment. So there should be no objection to the camp taking place!
Participant
Anyone who enjoys exercise can take part. Individuals or entire groups of all sporting abilities are welcome. Around 40 participants with different nationalities are expected. In recent years, participants have come from Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, England, Scotland, California and the Netherlands.
Training groups
Each participant is part of a group of 6 to 8 people. The groups are put together taking into account various information from the registration. When making the classification, we take into account the desired partners and your specified performance class. We strive to provide you with the right training partners in order to create a harmonious training structure. After all, no one should be over- or under-challenged.
Accommodation and catering
We have access to a scout house throughout the week. We will stay there during our free time and overnight. This scout house has 3 showers and 4 toilets, and there are always shower options in the gymnasiums. You should pack a sleeping bag for your sleeping place. If it no longer fits in your luggage, we can provide you with bedding and covers for a small additional charge of €30. You should indicate this wish when registering.
We are fed morning, lunch, evening and in between. You have access to fruit and drinks at any time and get an extensive breakfast, a warm meal at lunchtime and a hearty snack in the evening. Special eating habits and allergies can be stated in the registration form and will of course be taken into account.
Arrival and departure
Camp 1 : Arrival day is July 24th, 2022 and departure day is July 30th, 2022.
Camp 2 : Arrival day is July 31, 2022 and departure day is August 6, 2022.
There are four ways for you to get to Nyköping:
Airplane : Nyköping has a Ryanair airport (“Stockholm-Skavsta”), which is probably the most pleasant and cheapest way to get there. There is another international airport within reach. This is called Arland and is about 180 km from the accommodation. If you land in Arlanda, you have to take a train or bus to Stockholm Centralen and then take a direct bus to Nyköping (Bus4You or Flygtbussarna). Your destination is to either reach Stockholm-Skavsta Airport or Nyköping Centralen train station. We will be happy to pick you up from there.
Car : To do this, please enter the following address into your navigation system: Nyköpings Scoutkår, Helgona Söra, 611 94 Nyköping.
Train : It's possible, but it takes quite a long time. I haven't done this myself and therefore can't pass on any experiences.
Bus : So far, Flixbus has always gone to Norrköping. From there you can get a bus further to Nyköping.
Important! Please let us know your arrival time at least one week before the start of the camp. This gives us enough time to organize your pickup from Skavsta Airport or Nyköping Central Station! If your arrival time changes due to delays or something else, please let us know as soon as possible by telephone: 004917683337477 (Kathi) or 00491757812280 (Gero).
