Wellness at Work

Do you own or work for a company that wants to take action improving the efficiency
​and well-being of their employees? 
When an employee is not well, it impacts every business. ​Did you know that many people face preventable physical and mental health issues in their working years? ​
 Many companies can lose billions of dollars each year from loss of  productivity due to presenteeism. Most companies are aware of losses from absenteeism-  however presenteeism occurs when an employee is present at work, but due to an unaddressed physical or emotional issue, are distracted to the point of reduced productivity.

​It's estimated that presenteeism could cost Canadian businesses 15 to 25 billion dollars per year. One U.S. (Employers’ Health Coalition) study found that lost productivity from presenteeism was at least 7.5 times greater than productivity loss from absenteeism.  ​
Our  Functional Yoga and Mobility classes provide employees and employers a convenient and cost-effective
​option that they can use to improve their mental health and well-being online!
What is causing people to suffer to the point of distraction?
For most, chronic stress, physical aches and pains, and an overactive mental dialogue can create immense internal struggles. Stress plays an important role as the leading factor of physical pain, illness and disease. 
According to the National Institute of Health: 
Evidence shows that stress contributes to the etiology of heart disease, cancer, and stroke as well as other chronic conditions and diseases.   

​In order to reduce the burden of disease. It's a priority to include a focus on stress management and reduction of negative emotional states. "
​All of our classes are designed to help reduce chronic stress, aches and pains and improve mood and mental clarity.

Why choose a yoga- based wellness program?

Yoga is recognized as a form of mind-body medicine that integrates an individual's physical, mental and emotional aspects to improve overall health, particularly stress related illnesses.

Yoga, an over 5000 year old tradition of healing, is now regarded in the Western world as a holistic approach to health. The National Institutes of Health classifies yoga as a form of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM).

Practicing yoga regularly promotes strength, endurance and flexibility  while facilitating characteristics of friendliness, compassion, greater self-control and well-being. ​
Our goal is to reduce and relieve chronic stress and tension that employees accumulate throughout the busy workweek, while fostering strength and resilience.
