Facial yoga is a branch of yoga that focuses specifically on the muscles, nerves, circulation, and lymphatic flow of the head and face. Through facial exercises, you can subtly or sometimes significantly impact your appearance, as facial muscles can be developed just like the muscles of the body. Conversely, a lack of use can cause these muscles to weaken and tighten, which not only affects facial expressions but can also lead to tension headaches or teeth grinding. When unnecessary tension is released from the face, the mind also relaxes. Facial yoga also helps you become more aware of your own expressions, which can lead to deeper self-awareness, as you become more attuned to when, for example, your jaw starts to tighten.

Each session includes a holistic practice, with a slightly different focus, such as relaxing the jaw muscles, lifting the eyelids, creating a more cheerful expression, reducing snoring/contouring the jawline, lymphatic drainage and relaxing massages, and smoothing forehead wrinkles.

It is recommended to come to facial yoga without makeup and with clean hands so you can freely work on your face. If you have dry or very sensitive skin, you can bring along a basic moisturizer or facial oil that you usually use. However, avoid applying any cream just before the session, as some exercises require a firm grip on the skin or muscles.

Dress in warm, comfortable clothing that allows for free movement and sitting comfortably!

Lindy hop is an engaging partner dance that originated in the 1920s, originally an African American dance style. It is still danced to swing music today. The jive, which became highly popular in the 1940s, is based on this captivating dance. Lindy hop can increasingly be seen at social dances whenever swing music is playing.

In this course, you will learn the basics of Lindy hop. Our goal is to get into the joy of dancing, so there will be a lot of dancing during the classes.

The course includes partner and role switching, so you can sign up either with a partner or without. Your partner can also be someone outside of SportUni, but one of you must be a member of SportUni. Role switching means that during the course, you will learn both to lead and to follow the dance.

For the classes, you will need sneakers or any other type of indoor shoes suitable for sports activities, and otherwise, the attire is free. The course can be held in Finnish or English, or both, depending on the need.
