ACCOMODATION:
We provide indoor accommodation, in the form of space in the workshops at Ribe Vikingecenter and the authentic houses on the site. If you wish to camp (authentic or not), there is plenty of room for that too. Sleeping in your vehicle is also permitted, due to demand in workshop space. Denmark in March is fairly unstable, so expect all types of weather.
It is very important that you remember to bring your own sleeping mattresses or equivalent, we do not provide beds or anything of the like, so bring what you need.
Arrival on Friday late afternoon/evening is encouraged for organizational purposes, food will not be provided on friday. We will however be running a bar for Friday evening.
CATERING AND ALCOHOL:
We provide catering for both breakfast and lunch on Saturday and Sunday, you will get dinner on Saturday. The dining and bar area for Friday is located in the same building as previous years. Participants are welcome to bring their own alcohol; however, you will be able to purchase good LOCAL beer on tap both Friday and Saturday evenings.
As always, remember there will be a party in the longhouse on Saturday, where authentic attire and drinking vessels are HEAVILY recommended.
TRAINING AND WORKSHOPS:
This is a Western-style event fighting with in Sletten rules. If you’re unsure, feel free to reach out. Civilian attire and footwear are allowed during the training. Based on your feedback (and to spare you from running into battle with a hangover), the Battle of Ripa will now take place on Saturday afternoon before dinner.
The workshops are as follows:
Erik "Staalhugger" Pedersen - The competitive 1v1 workshop
Jonatan Faber - “Evolving your teamwork in training – lifehacks on working together with anyone – PART 2”
Daphne Vrijenhoek - City fighting!
DEPARTURE:
In order to allow us to restore the areas "left as found", we request that you leave in a timely manner after training has ended on Sunday. If there are any questions, or missing information, you are welcome to write a message to Facebook group “RIPA vikingekampgruppe”
We are looking forward to seeing your registrations pour in over the next few months as we continue to organize everything for a truly epic training weekend for you all
Viking Village Training and Epic Longhouse Partying!
Yours truly
