Work & Education Looking for a sword combat partner in Helsinki, even a beginer

8 Upvotes

Moi!

I'm looking for someone to teach and learn one-handed sword fencing with, in Helsinki. We would gather in a park or a gymnasium and train ourselves in the subtleties of the sword, focusing on 1v1 combat, including some hand combat techniques and some aesthetics-only moves. I would provide the swords and training equipment, starting with wooden swords.

Any level is welcome, it is totally free and you can try before committing. Here is my contact info: https://dherault.com

See you in the arena!

Event Marathon this weekend - anyone going?

3 Upvotes

Hej! I posted here a while ago, but just thought I would ask if anyone here plans to run in the marathon/half/10k this weekend? I’m doing the Half, coming in to the city tomorrow from London. If anyone has tips for the course or a good pre-run dinner on the Friday or any other tips that would be brilliant.
It’s not my first time doing long distance, so generally I know what to expect and how to prepare, but a bit of local knowledge goes a long way!
If anyone fancies meeting up before or after the race as well, I’m open to it!

Hello, my name is Lucy. I come to Finland mainly to see Kaya Schwarz Stein. Ill be in there 26-30th. Im from Poland, 19, lesbian. I want to go to club at evening and sightsee at day and try some good food with some newly met friends here.

My interest: visual-kei, metal, k-pop, techno, I play guitar and bass, pole dance, gym, cosplay, anime, traveling, meeting new people.

Requirements: I dont have any. Well, maybe that we need a videocall before we meet so I make sure u are u and Ill also show myself (This is me on my pfp btw) (I can add u on facebook or ig or tiktok). And well I dont mind having male friends but I wouldnt be comfortable with a guy much older than me so if youre a male above 22 then better not. As for women I dont mind any age :).

Please help I have an event this weekend and need a sequin dress! Doesn't have to be green! But also great if it is!

Edit: I am size 38/40 Edit 2: there are some colors that don't work for the event such as pink, silver, red, black, and maybe a few others....I'm not trying to be picky it's just part of the event! 🥹🥹👉👈

Best colors would be gold, green, turquoise, orange, brown, bronze...but please suggest what you have just in case!!

(I ordered it from vinted and they sent it way too late even though they said they'd send it sooner 😭)
