The benefits of Office Yoga
Do you think you and your colleagues would benefit from office Yoga?
Office yoga is all about creating a calm, relaxing environment to combat the negative effects of sitting for long periods and to help you deal with daily stress and burnout. I have been teaching corporate Yoga classes for over 8 years now and I really enjoy seeing people discover the benefits of Yoga at their workplace.
Office Yoga:
Combats stiffness and pain and improves circulation
Boosts energy levels and reduces stress levels
Improves focus and concentration, creates mental clarity
Reduces stress and anxiety, lowers stress hormones and promotes relaxation
Improves posture, reduces neck and back pain
Teaches us how to breath better and calm the mind with many different meditation techniques and breathwork
Please get in touch if you want to set up a “lunch break Yoga class” at your office!

Here’s what my office yogis say about my corporate classes:
“It has been an amazing few months since I began to have yoga practice sessions. After each session, I feel so much more relaxed and muscles I did not think possible to stretch are very thoroughly massaged to put it lightly . I am guaranteed deeper sleep and feel generally better after each session and would recommend to everyone to join in. It is life changing experience.”

“I’ve been attending Kat’s office yoga sessions for over a year and am thoroughly enjoying them! Kat knows exactly which areas to focus on for office workers with tight muscles and I leave each session feeling relaxed and refreshed for the rest of the work day. Being able to switch off from work and be completely in the moment has been really beneficial. Kat is a very approachable, knowledgeable and friendly teacher who tailors the sessions to our needs. I would highly recommend Kat’s classes!!”

“I’ve been doing office yoga with Kat for about 18 months and it has been genuinely life-changing. Obviously, I’ve “improved” in yoga terms over this time, but at no point have I ever felt as though I was doing anything badly. The group is very mixed, there are some very experienced people and people who have never done yoga before – and, importantly, we all have different bodies. One of Kat’s skills is the ability to give us all an option that is achievable (but challenging ), but without making those of us who are less flexible feel in any way less worthy. From a personal point of view, my journey has evolved like this: at the very first session, during Savasana (you lie on the floor chilling out for five minutes), my mind was actually blank, there was nothing there, no random thoughts; as the mother of teenagers, this is an experience I have not had for *quite some time*. So from that point on, I’ve been hooked. When I started doing yoga, I was also four stone (25kg) heavier than I am now and at no point did that ever matter. I did what I could then, I do what I can do now – and Kat has been the same supportive presence throughout. Honestly, do yoga (with Kat specifically), it cannot fail to have a positive impact.”
