Corporate Yoga

Why yoga in the workplace?

The corporate environment can be increasingly challenging and stressful. Working in an office or at a computer for prolonged periods of time can put strain on the neck, shoulder and back muscles, which in turn can lead to tension and stiffness. This tension can cause headaches, as well as back, neck and shoulder pain that can change the mood and temperament of the individual causing a breakdown in productivity. Even short sessions of yoga stretches can release muscle tension and alleviate pains and aches, bringing up the mood and energy levels of those practicing and learning to incorporate easy and effective techniques to daily routines. Yoga is accessible to participants of all levels from beginner to advanced and can be modified to each individuals needs.
