We offer FREE 20 minute taster sessions at your workplace to give you an idea of what yoga at work is and hints and tips on how to use yoga principles to enhance and improve your working life and well being. These sessions take the form of ‘seated yoga’; which can be done while at your desk or in a short break, with no need to change your clothes.
Introductory Course
An introductory course comprising 8 yoga classes over 8 weeks, or 2 classes per week for 4 weeks, is a great first step. This course includes in depth focus on the following aspects within the yoga classes;
1. Stress and anxiety relief
2. Improved mental clarity and problem solving abilities increasing effectiveness
3. Reduction in RSI injuries, such as back pain, neck stiffness and Carpal Tunnel
4. Improved mood and general health and wellbeing to combat sickness

Testimonial from Claire Shelley, Site Leader at GE Money, Truro:
The regular yoga classes have been attended by colleagues of all levels of ability from those of us who have never tried yoga before, through to those who have experience; with each class and exercise being adapted to the requirements of individuals everyone has felt a real benefit of attending. Employees have commented that the positive effects can be felt both from a mental and physical perspective, so much so that we are looking to run a further course and even more people have become interested in coming along to experience yoga at work.
