Lunch time yoga makes such a difference to the work day.

A well-being corporate yoga programme
The aim of my yoga programme is to bring about an understanding of the value and benefits of yoga that can prevent a lot of health problems over the course of a lifetime.
The programme is designed to target those niggly, irritating aches and pains we all experience once in a while and at the same time soothe the nervous system and calm the mind.
Practising specific poses in a specific way will help to loosen tight muscles and stiff joints (especially around the shoulders and the lower back areas). Although some poses will naturally create heat in the body it isn’t a case of perspiring to the degree of discomfort. On the contrary, employees emerge refreshed and ready to tackle their tasks with renewed vigour.
There are also breathing & meditation components in the programme whereby breathing techniques & visualisation skills are taught. These components add & compliment the physical practice in the endeavour to relax the body & calm the mind.

From my corporate yoga students ...........
“Tuesdays are my favourite day of my working week as I get to go to yoga. I have been attending Vim's classes for a few years now and I absolutely love them. I come out of each session feeling totally relaxed. From the moment I step into the room I leave my work stresses behind. Vim is the most encouraging innovative yoga teacher I have come across.” (Peggy – senior business analyst at iag, Sydney & author of The Camino)
“What could be better than lunch-time yoga and not even having to leave the building! Thanks Vim for being a wonderful, caring yoga teacher. It was great to be able to leave your sessions feeling like I had no stress and floating through the afternoon. Any tension from the morning was gone and the afternoon felt easy even when faced with work pressure.” (Elizabeth - North Sydney)
