Gentle Yoga: Taster Session For Shannon Chamber Members

Description

What’s The Purpose Of This Taster Session?

With many companies realising the benefits and productivity gains associated with onsite exercise facilities for their staff, this is an opportunity to see how easily such classes could be brought to your company, at a fraction of the cost and maintenance of say gym equipment, held either in your existing office space or facilitated through Shannon Chamber.

Why Gentle Yoga?

Gentle Yoga is a more inclusive style of yoga, with an incredibly low practice injury rate, yet still a high-benefit, evidenced based physical exercise. With regular practice you will increase flexibility and strength, improve balance and circulation, and learn a new set of skills to manage and reduce stress. Put simply, a great and effective way to set up the body and mind for the day ahead or reset following a hectic morning.

Who Are We Looking To Attend?

HR, P&C, Talent Acquisition Leads for companies that are actively looking to include the likes of company funded onsite Gentle Yoga classes to enhance their staff workplace health and wellbeing offering.

Prerequisites & Items To Bring

The session will consist of a 45min Gentle Yoga class, followed by 15 min Q&A. This taster session will have limited availability, so please express your interest to us as soon as possible.

Before attending you will be asked to complete and return a Health & Consent Questionnaire, covering any past or current health issues/injury concerns your yoga teacher should be made aware of, and where you feel it prudent, that you’ve sought your GP’s go ahead to practice yoga.

Some of you will be happier practicing with your own yoga mat, yoga belt, brick/block, yet there will always be yoga mats and props provided by your teacher. A water bottle is always handy and wear exercise clothing that you will feel comfortable in for these seated, standing and floor based exercises. If possible arrive 5 mins before this session starts to get yourself settled and ready to begin.
