CORPORATE YOGA
About Yoga for the Office
This 6-week course introduces Yoga and Wellness to those who work in the corporate sphere and spend a lot of time at the desk. My aim with this course is to highlight the universal quality of Yoga with the intention of opening the discussion to movement, intention, and wellness in the workplace.
It is important for people to feel safe at work. This includes creating a safe space for people to listen to their bodies and respond with gentle movement if needed. The human body is designed to move and breathe - We are dynamic beings. I believe it is important for staff members and leaders to create open conversations about movement and wellness, and to support one another along the way.
This course encourages your workforce to come together with this gentle approach to team-building and connection.

Benefits of Corporate Yoga
Bring Yoga into your Workplace
Health and Wellness is important in all areas of our life, including work, and so incorporating movement and calming practices into our day is important in maintaining balance throughout the body.
As a business owner it is important to offer support to employees. Yoga can help individuals develop self regulating tools for their own well-being. With yoga you cover all 4 major aspects of health including: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health - all of which are equally important. By offering these resources to your employees you give them tools to look after their own health and wellness, and an opportunity for people to come together in their growth.

Yoga encourages health within all aspects of ourselves, including, mind, body, emotion, and spiritual. Health and wellness cannot exist without acknowledging all these different factors.
This program is a way to give your employees tools they can take away to support themselves and those around them. In a workplace it is important for people to feel safe and connected. By sharing this experience it opens the dialogue to health and wellness, and allows people to come together in their experiences. A shared experience is a connecting experience.

One of the many elements to Yoga is physical movement (called Asana). There are many different types of Yoga movements that can be taught. My focus is on functional strength, stability, and mobility that directly relates to modern society and the way we live as a collective.
With regular practice of Yoga Asana, with a focus of strength and mobility, your body will adjust and become stronger and more flexible. A large aspect to Yoga is conscious breathing which in itself can improve recovery, lunge capacity, and endurance.
Yoga is an approachable way to introduce movement and fitness into the workplace. Alternatively, it is a great way to switch things up from any current fitness program you may have in place.
-
Chronic stress has become very common in modern society. Through bringing breath, movement, meditation, intention, kindness, and presence together you are creating a wonderful environment to lower stress levels in the workplace.
This program gives your employees tools to manage their stress, as well as ways to incorporate practices into their lives day-to-day.
Most of the stress in our lives can come from the way we think and perceive the world we live in. If we change the way we live in this world, we change the way we see the world, and vice versa.
