Personal Training coaching typically includes an initial assessment, an exercise program, and a number of coaching sessions of your choice. Depending on your needs and goals, the sessions may also include nutritional guidance, the creation of a personalized meal plan, introductions to different sports and activities, as well as strength, mobility, and endurance testing. Coaching sessions can be arranged at the SportUni sports centre that suits you best, or for example at a swimming hall or outdoor recreation area. You can also inquire about partner or small-group coaching options!
All SportUni Personal Trainers are qualified fitness and sports professionals. The price of Personal Training depends on factors such as the number of sessions and the trainer’s level of expertise. Trainers set their own prices, but for SportUni customers, the cost of an individual coaching session is maximum 85 €/hour (incl. VAT). In general, the more sessions you purchase, the lower the price per session. For detailed pricing information, please contact the trainer directly. Payment for Personal Training is made directly to the trainer, who will invoice you according to your agreement. Please note that training in SportUni facilities requires a valid SportUni fee.
Browse the trainer profiles, contact the trainer of your choice, and feel free to ask for more information. Getting in touch does not commit you to anything!

PT Nathalie Schümchen-Schram
Hi there! My name is Nathalie, but I also go by the nickname my Finnish friends gave me – Natsku! Here at Sportuni, I’m a group instructor and personal trainer. If you had asked me about exercising in my mid-twenties, I would have told you that the only time you would see me running was when I was late for the bus. A lot has happened since then – at the beginning of my PhD studies, a colleague took me on my first run since high school, which is when I discovered that sports can be fun even if they don’t get you high grades at school (better late than never, right?) I got into running and fitness boxing, which are, next to strength training and mobility work, my favorite ways to move. Discovering the joy of movement and how much better an active lifestyle makes me feel, has been a real game-changer for me, and has also made my desk-centered day job as language specialist more bearable.
I got into instructing group classes via fitness boxing. During the first covid-related lockdown, I moved into instructing lots of online classes. It was then that I decided that I wanted a deeper knowledge of training and the human body which led me to taking courses to gain a Level 4 Personal Trainer qualification.
Student or staff here at Tampere Universities, I’ll always do my best to help you, whether you have just gotten started, are seeking to get back to a more active lifestyle, or are looking for specific ways to tweak your performance. I believe that movement should be fun, so let’s find out together which activities you enjoy inside and outside the gym!
Currently, I’m only available at Atalpa (city center campus). In terms of language, I can instruct in English, Danish, and German – I’m still working on my Finnish skills 😉 Send me an email or a message on WhatsApp or Telegram and let’s find out what works for you!

Hey! My name is Onni, and my mission is to help you realize your true potential.
I want to assist you in feeling better, stronger, and enjoying life and movement more. Comprehensive well-being and everyday energy are close to my heart, and exercise is a true remedy for it. When training with me, you’ll avoid unnecessary injuries, and you won’t have to go on crazy crash diets – instead, you’ll achieve lasting results.
I believe that the human body is designed to move, and people are at their best when they’re in good shape, strong, and confident. Versatile functional strength training, combined with endurance exercises and practical nutrition, provide you with the prerequisites for comprehensive well-being and endurance. I create a personal exercise plan for each of my clients that suits your needs, and I support you on your journey toward your goals.
Whether you’re a beginner, experienced athlete, or somewhere in between, I can certainly help you achieve your peak fitness. I have personal experience in a wide range of activities, from team sports to martial arts and endurance sports. Nowadays, I engage in various activities to promote my own and others’ health and well-being. My education includes being a certified sports massage therapist, a well-being coach, and a personal trainer. Additionally, I’m currently studying to become a physiotherapist at Tampere University of Applied Sciences.
As a coach, I’m demanding but fair. I challenge you to help you improve safely. I always take into consideration your overall daily load and your life situation when planning workouts. As a coach, I’ll help you increase your strength and confidence, tone your body, build muscle, improve your basic fitness, and help you enjoy having a functional and strong body. Are you ready for a change?
I expect my clients to have a desire to learn and grow, as well as the motivation to make a change. You may have a specific goal you want to achieve, or I can help you find a goal that’s meaningful to you. If something within you has awakened, and you feel ready for a change, please get in touch, and let’s get to work!”
