Sjowsjip is a rope skipping class run by Gymnastikforeningen ODK. The session mixes a solid all-round workout, building strength, stamina, balance, coordination, rhythm and flexibility, with playful rope skipping.
Expect a good sweat and plenty of variety. You will jump and swing the ropes in different ways, including tricks with a single rope, wheels where ropes are shared, double Dutch with two long turning ropes, traveller moves where you catch each other in the ropes, and speed skipping against the clock. The class suits both beginners and more experienced skippers, who will pick up new moves with the ropes.
