Corporate Classes
Over the years, I have taught corporate classes in a wide variety of spaces: meeting rooms (big and small), rehearsal spaces, stages, outside spaces, on floorboards, carpet, lino, concrete, you name it!
That is the beauty of yoga, you don’t really need that much to get started.
We encourage to trial the sessions for a minimum of 5 weeks - on the basis of a weekly session - so that participants can get a chance to get a little glimpse of how a yoga practice can benefit them, an interesting challenge for me!
In some cases, companies sponsor the class and offer it as a perk to their employees and in others, staff members are responsible for payment of the class.
The only thing required is a space, some mats - which participants will need to get for practical and hygienic reasons - and the motivation to get started! Classes include a short meditation and/or breath work, asanas (postures) which both strengthen and stretch the body, mobility exercises and a relaxation.
I also teach one-off events for companies. I had the privilege to teach at the Southbank Centre and Royal Albert Hall a few years ago, and more recently, I aslo taught online Wellness Week events both for Moonpig and N Family Club.

Benefits of holding yoga classes in your workplace:
Banish Mental & Physical Sluggishness
Time taken away from screens to focus on the breath and body allows to clear the mind, gain perspective, promote concentration, better retain information and enhance energy level.
Reduce Stress & Anxiety
Over time through breath work yoga also helps improve relational skills; developing and refining our ability to not run at the mouth and be able to keep a cool and constructive head in more conflictual or challenging relationships and situations. The practice of yoga in a group requires to listen carefully for instructions which in turn contributes to refining listening skills.
Increase Productivity
Having to take a break from work actually helps increase productivity and improve time management and organisational skills.
Boost the Immune System
Yoga helps boost the immune system hence a good way to reduce absenteeism due to sickness.
Team Building Experience
Yoga is mostly an individual practice but the experience can be shared afterwards and if all participants are keen to take part in partner work, quite a few yoga poses can be approached in a more inclusive and fun way. In that respect, yoga can be used as a team building experience since competition has no place in the practice.
Healthier & Happier
Yoga practitioners generally feel healthier and happier which translates nicely in a working environment. It can also bring about the satisfaction of feeling part of
a broader community.
