A new universe for those who want more energy, greater balance, and a stronger foundation for the life you live.
GREAT NORTHERN PERFORMANCE
An investment in yourself
Welcome to Great Northern Performance.
A new experience universe, created for people who want to invest in the most important thing they have – themselves.
Here, modern technology, performance and recovery come together in one complete universe – surrounded by nature, tranquillity and the quality that defines Great Northern. You can visit Great Northern Performance as a destination in its own right. Or make it part of your stay – alongside golf, spa, gastronomy and meetings.
For some, it’s about getting stronger. For others, it’s about finding calm.
For most, it’s about getting more out of life.
Welcome to experiences you don’t just remember, but take home with you.

Cryo Therapy
Recovery
Cryotherapy is known for several potential benefits, including pain relief and reduced inflammation. Cryo can reduce pain and swelling in muscles and joints, making it popular among athletes for fast recovery.
Light Therapy
Recovery
Light therapy is used by both professional athletes and everyday people for effective treatment of both muscle and joint pain, sports injuries, arthritis, circulation problems, as well as skin issues, mood and wellbeing.
Vacuum Therapy
Recovery
Vacuum therapy works by creating a negative-pressure environment that increases blood circulation, releases tension in muscles and fascia, and promotes the body’s natural healing process through mechanical stimulation of the tissue.

We believe people function best when they are maintained.
Like nature. Like the architecture. Like the golf course.
Great Northern Performance is built on a simple belief:
That a good life isn’t about pushing more out of the body. It’s about taking good care of it.
Because when you invest in yourself, you also invest in everything life is made of.
a new universe universe of experiences
What is Great Northern Performance?
Great Northern Performance is a place where you invest in yourself
A universe developed for people who want to understand their body better, develop their physical performance, or simply give themselves the best conditions for a life with energy and balance. Here, leading specialists in training, physiology and recovery work together to create individual experiences centred around you.
Development
Build strength, fitness and mobility through targeted training and individual guidance.
Insight
Gain insight into your physical performance, and let specialists help you turn knowledge into lasting results.
Recovery
Give your body the best conditions to rebuild itself through recovery and active recovery.
Balance
Work on mental calm, balance and habits that bring more energy – both in the short and long term.
Golf & performance
Performance with a special focus on golf
We work with performance across the body, movement and recovery. But with our strong professional grounding in golf, we have built a special expertise in understanding how the body affects your game – and how targeted training can make a difference.
- Physical screening and a golf-focused performance profile
- Training in strength, mobility, balance and movement quality based on your game
- Professional insight into the link between body, movement and golf performance
personlig tilpasning & program
Performance your way
The most important thing about Great Northern Performance is that there isn’t one right way to experience the universe.
- You can visit us for a few hours.
- You can make it part of your stay.
- You can combine it with golf, spa or gastronomy.
- You can come alone. With your partner. With friends. Or as part of a corporate visit.
Performance adapts to you. Not the other way around.
tryghed – fagligt & menneskeligt
Meet Martin
Great Northern Performance has Martin Juel Johansen as its professional lead. Martin is a physiotherapist and holds an MSc in Sport & Health, and is also a PhD fellow in exercise physiology, specialising in physical testing and physical training of elite golfers.
Martin is the author of several peer-reviewed scientific articles within physical training and golf performance, and also conducts physical testing of players on the Danish national golf teams in collaboration with the Danish Golf Union.
Testing & Training Equipment
VALD ForceFrame
Performance
ForceFrame is used to test maximal strength in controlled positions, typically for shoulders, legs and hips. The technology uses fixed force sensors to measure force development during isometric tests with high reliability. This provides a precise assessment of strength level, side-to-side differences and strength base, which are crucial for both performance and robustness. The measurements can also be used as an objective basis in connection with returning to sport or activity, where strength asymmetries may be relevant to identify and track over time.
1080 Quantum Synchro
Performance
1080 Quantum Synchro is used to test and train speed, power and force development. The technology combines a resistance system with integrated sensors and speed measurement, allowing performance to be recorded precisely in every repetition. The equipment enables measurement of performance in specific movements and management of training with precise feedback, so load and intensity can be optimally adjusted. It is particularly relevant for developing explosiveness, acceleration, strength and sport-specific power.
VALD HumanTrack
Performance
HumanTrak is used to assess movement quality, mobility and control in functional movements. The technology uses camera-based motion analysis to record movement patterns and joint positions during selected tests. This provides an objective overview of limitations and compensations, allowing training to be targeted and load to be managed more appropriately.
VALD ForcePlates
Performance
ForcePlates are used to measure force development in movements such as jumping, take-off and landing. The technology records force data directly from the surface and provides objective measurements of force production and force distribution. This provides an objective picture of power and explosiveness, as well as balance, side-to-side differences and loading strategies. Force plates can also be used for maximal strength testing, where total force capacity is measured with high precision. The results can also be included in the assessment of physical status when returning to sport t – including evaluation of asymmetries and load tolerance.
VALD Dynamometer
Performance
The dynamometer is used for precise measurement of muscle strength in specific muscle groups, for example around the shoulder, hip, knee, hand/wrist and ankle. The technology uses digital force sensors to measure strength in isolated movements. This enables identification of force output and asymmetries that may affect performance and increase the risk of injury.
Eleiko Fitness Equipment
Performance
Great Northern Performance is equipped with Eleiko fitness equipment, which is strength training equipment of the very highest quality and forms the foundation for safe and effective training. The equipment supports progressive training with a focus on strength, robustness, maintenance and performance, ensuring optimal conditions for technically correct training and continuous progression.
