Come join parkour, where you’ll get to move freely over obstacles and use your surroundings in fun and creative way! At practice, we’ll focus on moving in a fluid and agile way and building up strength, but the most important thing is to enjoy physical activity and gain positive experiences at your own level. Parkour is a creative and varied sport where you don’t need prior experience – everyone can practice at their own pace and find their own style. This sport also develops your endurance, perception of space and precision. If you’re looking for a fun and challenging way of moving, parkour is the perfect choice!
Registration for hobby groups will open on Thursday 21 August. Hobby groups will start in week 37, on Monday, 8 September 2025 onwards. The hobby groups will meet weekly throughout the school year unless otherwise stated. The hobby groups do not meet during school holidays. The hobbies are free of charge for the participants. The City of Espoo has insured the hobby group participants.
Everyone is welcome to hobby groups regardless of their language skills, functional capacity or past hobbies. Support for participation is available. When registering, please notify any support needs your child might have or if there is anything else of note, so that the hobby organiser can take it into account in their activities and make participating easier.
The organiser of the hobby group contacts the guardians about the practical arrangements for the hobby. Please contact the hobby organiser if you want to cancel your child’s participation or if you have questions about the hobby. It is possible to try out the hobby groups before signing up.
The Espoo Hobby Path offers free hobbies according to children’s and young people’s wishes. The activities are for pupils in grades 3–9 and take place after school days at school premises, near the school or via remote connection. The Espoo Hobby Path implements the national Finnish Model for Leisure Activities in Espoo. The principles of a safer space are applied in the hobby groups.
