The joy of movement
close to home.
Liikuntaleikki runs coached sports activities for children in Helsinki, Espoo and Vantaa. We want to bring the hobby as close to home as possible – that's why we have groups in many neighbourhoods, at familiar school fields and gyms.
Play comes first
Alongside football and movement skills, children practise being part of a group in a safe and encouraging atmosphere. Playfulness, variety and encouragement are the foundation of what we do.
Our groups are led by adults with long experience in children's sports coaching. Sessions are in Finnish, and our coaches also speak English.
