Corporate Classes
One of my main passions is teaching corporate yoga, bringing yoga to people who would greatly benefit from it. I currently offer weekly corporate classes ideal for reducing stress, soothing desk bodies, and providing either a lunchtime “pick me up”, or an end of day “wind down”.
In addition to these corporate classes, I also teach at a number of wellness events and employee workshops/team meetings bringing a range of yoga, mindfulness, and stress management tactics to the corporate world in a clear and easy to understand way.
"The Desk Body"
Impact
-
Hip flexors and hamstrings shorten & tighten
-
Back muscles stiffen and weaken over time from lack of use
-
Front of shoulder joint and rotator cuff muscles shorten causing a kyphotic rounding in the thoracic spine
Result
-
The inefficiency of these muscles causes the body to shift more weight into the lower spine overloading the vertebral discs
-
The pressure then builds between these lower discs and the muscles strain to accommodate the altered curve
Solution
-
The postures used in my corporate yoga sessions target the anatomy issues that arise resulting from the "desk body"
-
My sessions are designed to strengthen muscles, and correct poor postural slouching habits by targeting the deepest connective tissues of the body (fascia), as well as developing a calmer, stronger, more focussed mindset
