OFFICE YOGA

COVID-19 UPDATE: Thrive at Work yoga classes have been on hold for a while as the offices in which I usually work are closed. Once you’re ready to resume in-person classes, I’m happy to begin teaching them for you! Of course, the correct social-distancing measures will be taken to ensure that everyone stays safe and healthy. In the meantime, if you’re interested in me leading online yoga classes for your company, please contact me for details.

 

Yoga trains employees to become more aware of their own physical and mental state and this increased awareness can help them to change the way they respond to stress and anxiety. They learn to focus their minds more effectively so they can concentrate on the task at hand – a vitally useful skill to have in a fast-paced workplace where multitasking is a way of life.

Yoga also offers a multitude of other mental and physical benefits to your employees.

Why Office Yoga?

Office Yoga is the perfect antidote to workday stress and postural / muscular problems that can arise due to long hours spent at a desk.

It is a great choice for anyone wishing to feel energised and refreshed during his or her work day, both physically and mentally.

Unlike standard yoga lessons, my classes are designed to address the specific physical and mental challenges that desk workers tend to encounter.

What to expect

Each one hour-long class begins by slowly warming up the muscles, then gradually build up to a series of postures that work to release energy throughout the body and bring focus to the mind.

Classes are open to all levels, including complete beginners, as the intensity of the class will be adapted to the level of the participants and the needs of the group. So whether it’s a gentle relaxation class or an high-energy challenge that you require, I can create a class that suits you.
