Chair exercise: Monday at 10:00–10:45
Chair exercise is a free and open group for everyone. In the class, the sports instructor guides weekly changing seated exercise movements for the whole body. The target group for the class is seniors. The class also includes a section that is recommended to be performed standing, but alternative movements are also offered to be done seated. Registration is not required for the group. Chairs are already arranged in the sports hall lobby for the chair exercise, and you can choose your own place freely.

The lobby doors are currently closed due to construction work. Access to the space is through the gym door (on the sports field side of the building). The sports instructor will let you in at the door.
Kuvansi club: Monday at 13:00–14:00
Kuvansi club is a sports club for grades 1–2. In the club, we try out and practice different forms of physical activity both indoors and outdoors. However, we use a weather reservation, which means that activities originally planned for outdoors can be moved indoors in bad weather. Group members can plan the content of the club with their own ideas and wishes, from which the club instructor creates fun content that works for everyone. The club is free and does not require advance registration. Registration takes place on site when the club begins. The club is organised in cooperation with Kuvansi afternoon club.
