Helsingfors Skridskoklubb (in Swedish, HSK), in Finnish Helsingin Luistinklubi, is the oldest figure skating club in Finland. It was founded in Helsinki in 1875. When spoken in Finnish, the Swedish name is, however, more common than the Finnish, the only abbreviation used is HSK.

HSK trains athletes and non-professionals in three figure skating disciplines: single skating, ice dance and synchronized skating.[1] The club's most successful skaters include the ice dance pair Susanna Rahkamo/Petri Kokko, who are the 1995 European champions and 1995 World silver medalists. HSK has synchronized skating teams at all competitive levels: Team Unique at the senior, Team Mystique at the junior, Team Dynamique at the novice and Team Sympatique at the intermediate level. The club trains beginners' teams and teams in the open leagues as well.[2]

2020 suspension of synchronized skating coach
In January 2020, the Finnish Figure Skating Association (FFSA) imposed a one-year competition ban on the club's synchronized skating head coach Mirjami Penttinen, for unethical conduct.[3] 12 former junior and senior skaters under Penttinen's coaching had contacted the Finnish Center for Integrity in Sports (FINCIS, in Finnish: Suomen urheilun eettinen keskus, SUEK) and told about their experiences.[4]
The FINCIS had conducted an investigation and handed its findings over to the FFSA, whose Disciplinary Board found that Penttinen had repeatedly violated ethical rules of sports by using abusive language, yelling and humiliating her coachees, and on several occasions, suggesting that some of her coachees making mistakes during practice should commit suicide.[4] The HSK temporarily suspended Penttinen due to the competition ban.[5] Penttinen's lawyer denied the accusations and told that Penttinen was "extremely upset, sad, and sorry for the situation."[3]
In June 2020 the City of Helsinki decided to reclaim the 2018 subsidies from HSK, totaling approximately €57,000, due to what the City described as "not having abided by good governance and 'fair play' principles."[6] Nasima Razmyar, then-Vice Mayor of Helsinki and then-chair of the Culture and Leisure Committee of the City, deemed the decision as an important precedent demonstrating a "zero tolerance for bullying and humiliation", further adding that "the City has to stick to its principles" when granting subsidies.[7][8][9]
HSK in ice hockey
HSK had a successful ice hockey team during the 1930s which won the SM-sarja twice (1933 & 1934). The Ice hockey team ceased to exist in early 1950s.
