Our primary aim at the Viborg Sports Academy in Viborg is above all the education of local leaders of clubs and associations mainly connected with sport.
Viborg Sports Academy is a Danish folk high school focused on physical education. At our school, we welcome students from all over the world who wish to experience a Danish "idrætshøjskole". We offer a wide range of sports, existential and practical subjects, and introduce you to the Danish culture and society. Located in the central part of Jutland, our school is surrounded by beautiful nature and has great facilities for outdoor activities such as beach volleyball, OCR, kayaking, climbing, and American football.
During the first week of school, you choose your classes for the semester. Each semester, you can select three different sports subjects, giving you the chance to develop your skills in a particular sport or to try out something completely new - the choice is yours!
In addition, you will also pick one theoretical and one pratical class each semester. The selection of subjects may vary slightly from term to term.
You don't need to be an elite athlete - as long as you like sports and are willing to learn, you'll fit right in. Whether you're a beginner or an experience athlete, we guarantee you'll be challenged and inspired.
Below, you'll find the subjects divided into categories. Click on each option and spend some time learning about each subject.
