Joy, Movement and Experiences at the Sports Afternoon – Tuesday 17 February, 12–4 pm
The Sports Afternoon for students and staff invites the entire campus community to get moving! The event offers a wide range of activities and wellbeing experiences both on campus and around the city. Teaching is suspended for the afternoon at the University of Eastern Finland and Savonia University of Applied Sciences.
There will be plenty of free and low-cost sports and exercise opportunities, including group fitness classes, gym sessions, outdoor activities and unique try-outs. Join on your own, with a friend or as a group — the most important thing is to take part in your own way.
💪 Programme highlights include:
-
Open gym access at Luola, Snellmania, Studentia and Tan-ko
-
Group fitness classes and ball game sessions on campus
-
Not Fast Just Furious running groups (5 km or 10 km)

The aim of the Sports Afternoon is to promote wellbeing, joy of movement and a sense of community — you are warmly welcome to move, try something new and meet familiar faces!
