How do the weekly classes differ from the youth basic course?

The basic course is a fixed-term course that progresses according to a clear curriculum.

The weekly classes, on the other hand, are low-threshold training sessions where you can get to know the sport at a more relaxed pace and develop your skills flexibly according to your own schedule. After completing the basic course, it is possible to continue training in the weekly classes.
