Orshi Harkai

Performance & Wellness Coach

Hi, I'm Orshi.

​

I’m a dynamic, adaptive, internationally certified fitness professional with 10+ years of experience coaching movement and recovery at a native level of English.

​

My full name is Orsolya but everyone calls me Orshi. Originally from the heart of Central Europe, from beautiful Hungary, but I’ve lived in Helsinki since 2013.

​

As my roots are in a distinct and rich culture featuring over 1300 thermal baths, iconic cuisine, and top-notch hospitality—quality is important for me.

​

Year 2026 is a turning point in my career, leaving the corporate world behind and starting off as a full-time entrepreneur, offering premium wellness coaching services.

​

In the past 10+ years I worked in various marketing and communications roles at global, high-performance technology companies such as Smartly, Polar Electro, and Haiilo.

​

I hold a Master’s degree in Business Administration, a Bachelor’s degree in Hospitality Management, and a certificate for Employer Brand Leadership.

​

Alongside my full-time job, my fitness side hustle became a real passion project. Since 2016, I’ve worked at the Nordic region’s leading fitness centers like Elixia and Fitness24Seven.

 

I’m a certified personal trainer, advanced yoga teacher, and group fitness instructor. I’ve led a wide range of sessions including strength, functional, HIIT, mobility, flexibility, mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and Reformer Pilates.

​

My versatile skillet puts me on the spectrum of general health coaching—building strength, focus, and calm. I help high-performers and busy professionals achieve sustainable health for peak performance.

​

Learning yoga in Bali and India from a true master, Simon Borg-Olivier, made me realize traditional yoga is not designed for the modern body. Hence my approach is based on physiotherapy, and active movement.

​

As a professional, I’m known for creating a positive, energizing atmosphere, focusing on and motivated by results, being assertive, engaging, and self-driven. See my LinkedIn recommendations here.

​

If you’re committed to making changes in your health, lifestyle, and mindset—I’ll be a good match for you. Train with me at Performance Unit in Helsinki.
