Personal Training

Wellbeing with the help of a Personal Trainer!

Personal Training services can be booked in packages of one, three, five, ten and 20 sessions, and you can practice either alone or with 1–3 friends. The SportUni fee must be paid before the sessions.

A personal survey, a sport/gym program and the number of meetings with the PT according to your choice are included in the packages. The meetings can also include dietary instructions, getting to know different sports, and muscle, mobility and endurance testing.

The training sessions (55 min) can be held at any of the SportUni campuses or at, for example, a sports field or a swimming pool suitable for you.

PT Levels

SportUni Personal Trainers are divided into two price levels based on experience in coaching. At both levels, our Personal Trainers are educated professionals  – Level 1 PT has less than 600 guided coaching hours and Level 2 PT has more than 600.

SportUni personal trainers

Level 1: Nathalie Schümchen (only in English)

Hi, I’m Nathalie! Here at Tampere University, I’m a group instructor, personal trainer, and linguistics researcher. If you had asked me about exercising about eight years ago, I would have told you that the only time you would see me running was when being late for the bus. A lot has happened since then – in 2016, a colleague took me on my first run since high school, which is when I discovered that not getting high grades at sports at school doesn’t mean that sports can’t still be fun (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 more bearable.

I got into instructing group classes via fitness boxing. During the first covid-related lockdown, I held 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) where I also work as a researcher in the language unit. 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!
