Elixia Kamppi - Gym in Helsinki, Finland

Really good benches, nice new hip thrust machine and the gym isn't usually as crowded as the rest of Elixia centers in Helsinki. Staff is always polite and accommodating 😊 Customer request: it would be great if you could add a pendulum squat! 🙏

I was in town on business and had a wonderful experience at ELIXIA Kamppi. I bought a day pass and took the HIIT class with Sona Sargsjan. The desk attendants were super helpful and friendly, and instructor Sona pushed us and encouraged us with just the right balance. I held cover pretending to be a Finish speaker for the full 45 minutes 🇫🇮 😃, but the staff are happy to help you in English if you need. I loved the big windows and excellent natural light throughout the studio, and wide range of equipment. The other studio at the time was running a Fit Momma class, if there is anything more adorable than all the babies sitting next to the yoga mats watching the adults exercise, I don't know what it is 😂

I was staying at a hotel nearby and was guided towards this gym. Upon entering I had 3 pigeons attacking me outside, probably attracted to the Finnish ryebread I was consuming to load up with carbs. A staff member saw it and ran out to assist. The friendly staff grabbed another visitors shoes and threw them fiercely at the swarm of pigeons who quickly dispersed. Shaken but not beaten I entered the gym, and performed dumbbell lifting exercises pretending I was crushing pigeons when slamming the weights down in the floor. The other guests were very respectful as they kept a large distance to me. 5/5 would recommend.
